The Design

About Avila Offices Design de Interiores de Escritório

O Avila Offices é um projeto de design de interiores de escritório em Barcelona. A intervenção renova as áreas comuns de um edifício de escritórios de sete andares, com cerca de 1.100 metros quadrados por pavimento. A área de escritórios abrange 1.062 metros quadrados. Um novo lobby aberto substitui as soluções comerciais convencionais. Uma parede verde percorre a fachada até o interior e convida os pedestres a entrar. Paredes de vidro tornam o lobby visível a partir da rua. O mobiliário e as luminárias foram desenhados especialmente para o projeto em aço bruto e madeira, o que confere ao interior uma identidade coerente.

Behind the Design

Press Kit

Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.

Unique Properties: The entrance is dignified: the green wall runs from the facade to the interior inviting the pedestrian to enter the building. The glass walls make the lobby visible from the street. From this transparency, the permeability of these spaces is enhanced.
Dimensions & Packaging: Offices area is 1.062 sqm.
Tags: Green, office, interior design, Sustainable
Production Technology: The elements of the interior furniture (chairs, tables, reception furniture, ...) and lamps are specially designed for this project with raw steel and wood as the main materials. These same finishes were used in structural and cladding elements. In this way, it is possible to give identity and coherence to the project.
Design Challenge: All common spaces of the building are reformed (lobby, stairs, reception, bathrooms, solarium cover, ...) A new diaphanous lobby is proposed, avoiding conventional commercial solutions. The proposal maintains coherence both in terms of form and in the use of materials and construction systems.
Research: The project was created after winning a private competition to reform a seven floors office building of approximately 1,100 m2 each, in the 22@ district of Barcelona. The original building project was completed in 2002.
Inspiration: This new reform was proposed to give the building more open and contemporary spaces. The exterior penetrates into the building, enhancing the feeling of tranquillity, well-being, and health. Spaces were designed as places not only to work but to be enjoyed, talked, shared ... Yet, suitable for synergies to arise and encourage motivation and creativity.
Project Duration: January 2019, Barcelona.
Operation Flow: Spaces are transformed into pleasant and healthy places, well-lit and ventilated. A harmonious combination of elements and materials. Open and flexible spaces are generated in their use. This allows all kinds of activities and meetings, whether they are formal in a conventional space or in the lobby itself.
