BW Interiors, office needed to reflect the skill set and design direction that the fit out contractor stands for. On this premise the level of detail and selection of material was paramount from metal, marble, wood, joinery and steel the office needed to incorporate all divisions of skilled work.
The office is an exercise in detail and space planning. The flow was clearly divided into three main areas, executive, front of house (client facing) and back of house for staff. There was no aspect of this space that could not showcase or impress potential clients; everything was designed from the built-in joinery to the workstations to the desks and even the sinks.
The executive corridor houses two main offices in a tunnel of wood panelled walls with steel framed full height glass partitions, with minimal light to intentionally wash the corridor with shadows from the natural light. The reception area has a tree in the corridor as well as a dedicated sample room as well as a waiting area. The staircase was left as a rough concrete base finished with perfect wood panelling and lighting accents. Keeping to the industrial feel of the space. The open plan office space is broken with trees to elevate the monotony of rows of desking. The change in partitions from the executive full height glass to the back of house steel framed segmented partitions was again intentional. Showing the different skill sets of the contractor. The space is a minimal yet detailed space. There was no need to shout the excellence of this contractor’s skillset but to impress in the subtle details. Shadow groves, seamless material integration and superior MEP. The office is a stamen to what this contractor is capable of achieving. Less is more.
