The Design

About Block Enterijer poslovnog prostora

Block je dizajn enterijera poslovnog prostora površine 41 kvadratni metar. Kancelarija je kreirana za firmu koja se bavi savjetovanjem i obukom u oblasti ljudskih resursa, kojoj je bio potreban prostor za timske sastanke i događaje obuke. Niski plafoni i mala površina bili su glavni izazovi. Namještaj je raspoređen kao niz plutajućih funkcionalnih blokova postavljenih duž zida nalik galeriji, prateći principe stila Prairie School. Blokovi sadrže funkcije poput usluživanja hrane i štampanja. Ulazni foaje služi kao recepcija, prostor za kratke sastanke, sala za obuku i prostor za koktele. Korišteni su svijetli hrast, bakar i Calacatta mermer.

Behind the Design

Unique Properties
The client, an HR advisory & training firm, needed an office that could communicate openness and could facilitate different interactions from team huddles to training events. The space, however, presented some challenges: low ceilings (7 ft 4) and a small enclosure (41sqm). Referencing the Prairie School, cabinetry are conceived as a series of floating functional blocks embedded along a gallery-like wall inviting the occupant to follow along. Other areas then allow for flexible programming whilst maximizing spatial efficiency.
Dimensions & Packaging
Total area 41 square meters
Ceiling height 7 ft 4 in

Production Technology
Materiality leans towards warm, textural and light finishes, with abundant usage of light oak, copper and calacatta marble. Materials chosen have been vetted based on sustainability certifications.
Design Challenge
The biggest challenge was space-planning in a small area and executing a design that could satisfy the various occupant needs of the client.
Research
Thorough research was conducted to understand the business needs of the company. It was found that the office experienced fluctuations in occupancies due to working from home, itinerant workers/freelancers, and hosting of small to large scale events. As such, precedent research was conducted to derive spatial solutions that were relevant to each case/ occasion. Research was also conducted into historical styles where their principles could be applied where relevant.
Inspiration
The 19th C. architectural style Prairie School often featured horizontal bands of windows and lines that would direct one’s attention to the horizontal, de-emphasizing the ceiling height. The functional blocks in this project manifest this idea; they achieve the objective of expanding the space while each serving essential functions such as food and beverage, printing etc. Where office space is at a premium, functionality becomes architectural device and ornamentation.
Project Duration
The project started in January 2019 and finished in June 2019.
Operation Flow
The space allows for flexible programming whilst maximizing spatial efficiency and privacy where needed: The entry foyer doubles as a reception, huddle space, training room and cocktail area; the backroom serves as storage for folding chairs and a private relaxation pod.
