The Design

About RMIT Bldg 88 Opknapte Snuorkerij

It konsept fan Buildings wie om in unike, mar standardisearre wurkomjouwing te leverjen. Troch it bedrach fan ynboude sniewurk te beheinen ta spesjaliseare Banquette Seat en componentry, mienskiplike bankjes en losse meubels, is de romte net allinich ûntworpen foar har hjoeddeistige bewenners, mar beskôget ek de ymplikaasjes fan takomstige útwreiding.

Unique Properties
Utilising a floorplan of 1650m2, the fitout consited of:

*Collaborative and flexible working spaces
*Meeting Rooms and Executive meeting spaces
*Feature curved and angular banquette seating
*Feature joinery to communal areas
*Large timber ceiling panels
Dimensions & Packaging
The curved panel walls were individually manufactured on a CNC machine to achieve the desired shape. In order to breakup parts of the open spaces the curved walls tapered from 1.0mt up to 2.0mts in height.

Production Technology
A combination of both curved and angular design for the seating helped to breakup the main areas as well as maximising the natural light from the fully glazed facades to the Buildings sides.
Design Challenge
The greatest challenge was to correctly achieve the internal and external angled seating structure, ensuring it was fit for the purpose without compromising on strength, stability and the required shape.
Research
In order to meet the design brief for the Banquette Seating and Joinery items CUS looked at the other components that made up the project such as the angled coloured floor tiles, timber ceiling struts and the overall finishes. In this way the built-in seating and joinery blends in with this items to become a part of the workspace without actually standing out.
Inspiration
To incorporate the Client's requirements for both open and private office spaces, shared conference and meeting rooms with the flexability to expand at a later date.
Project Duration
The project was a fast tracked programme working two shifts over a 7 week periord.
Operation Flow
The design concept draws on a continuous open area that wraps around the building core. By breaking up certain areas with the curved and elongated Banquettes the occupants could achieve both an open plan workspace with the added privacy if required.
