The Design

About Modelhane Interior de Escritório

Modelhane é um interior de escritório que também abriga uma oficina de produção de bolsas. O espaço é aberto e despojado, com divisórias mínimas, de modo que o processo produtivo possa fluir sem interrupções. Tijolos com geometrias variadas formam separadores que demarcam os diferentes programas. Um material semipermeável divide as estações de trabalho da sala de corte e cria um efeito de silhueta. O interior organiza-se em torno de três áreas principais: uma sala de reuniões com área de exposição, as estações de trabalho e a sala de corte. São utilizadas cores claras, de forma que as bolsas sejam o único elemento de cor.

Production Technology: In this project, existing waffle structure on the ceiling, concrete, and an all-glass facade has inspired us to design a transparent and minimalist interior architecture. Because we didn't want to move away from concrete and glass as a material, we embarked on a search for lighter, more permeable, and different forms of material that can still incorporate concrete.
Inspiration: While designing this project, apart from it being a production workshop and office, we aimed to create an atmosphere of an art gallery and laboratory. We wanted to integrate the precision and hygiene of the production workshop with the laboratory, ultimately defining the resulting product as an artwork and creating a sense of visiting an art gallery. Therefore, we aimed to design the space with light colors, where only the bags were colored.
Project Duration: The project started in January 2023 in Istanbul and finished in March 2023.
Operation Flow: Modelhane was designed with free plan and realized as a project where the interior architecture centered around three main spaces—meeting room with display area, workstations, and cutting room—structured based on the flow within. In order to separate the workstations from the cutting room in the production area, a semi-permeable material was chosen, achieving a silhouette effect to distinguish the cutting room from the main space.
