About Cultural Link Kolaborativni radni prostor

Cultural Link je kolaborativni radni prostor dizajniran za arhitekte i dizajnere enterijera u Manami, Bahrein. Kompleks površine 888 kvadratnih metara spaja tradicionalne bahreinske dizajnerske principe sa savremenim namještajem i umjetničkim djelima. Odvojene zgrade definišu privatne kancelarije, prostore za zajednički rad, kafić i biblioteku materijala. Velika prozorska stakla povezuju zajedničke prostore, dok materijali koji apsorbuju zvuk podržavaju tihi rad. Korišteni su lokalni materijali poput krečnjaka, gline i palminog drveta, čime se odaje počast regionalnom zanatstvu i podržava održivost.
