In an office, the focus is generally on work, not the environment. Our building is in the city centre, but surrounded with green space, and we want to feel ourselves in harmony with the outdoors using only a few colours, in particular, only white and black. In this way, the eye will be able to fully appreciate the beauty of nature even when working inside the building. The layout of the building is rectangular, and since we are interior designers, we wanted to create something special for our interiors. The decision to use only a few colours and materials was dictated by the desire to have a clean, tranquil space.
We chose geometrical desks with a sloping side aligned with the ceiling, which is itself sloping. The choice of a flooring made from recycled materials and with anti-pollution and antibacterial qualities gives us not only an extreme design, but also an interesting contrast with the straight lines of the furnishings. The organic lines of the Serie100 is reflected in the roof with its cupola. When the light strikes the floor, the surface texture of the slabs seems to give life to wavelike movements in the floor itself, and gives the entire office a feeling of vitality.
