Architectural Office Space

Designing the interior of an architectural office was an amazingly creative process! The client, an architectural firm specializing in bio-medical research facilities, welcomed an out of the box, edgy approach to express a Mid-Century Industrial vibe. This is an open concept studio with key areas planned for team collaboration, meetings, and break out sessions.
This was a great project to collaborate on!
Project Year: 2016
Project Cost: $150,001 - $200,000
Country: Canada
Zip Code: M3B 2R2
The entry for this open planned office sets the tone. A meeting room open to the public atrium with a gallery wall showing the architectural firms projects provides window front advertising. Punchy lime green retro reception chairs punctuate this space.

The punch use of this blue carries thru both partners' offices and the board room, and references the vintage framed architectural blueprints. The use of baltic birch plywood with exposed edges distills design down to its cleanest elements.

The partners' offices are open to the studio, encouraging collaboration and team work. The wood decking on the underside of the mezzanine and plywood custom furniture is beautifully offset by the intense blue walls. There is a real visual pop in this space.

The large fluted glass barn doors open the board room to the studio. The custom board room table created from an old bowling alley is a real focal point and conversation piece. Obscured fluted glass was selected to allow full transference of natural light into the board room, without sacrificing...

This is the kitchen "collaboratory", a place where staff come to eat, meet and collaborate. The design is based on industrial bio fume hoods where research is conducted.

The kitchen collaboration wall is treated with chalkboard paint, allowing for a free exchange of ideas, written right on the wall.
