About Gnt Kancelarija za enterijer dizajn

Kancelarija za enterijer dizajn Gnt rekonfiguriše enterijer od 25 kvadratnih metara sa plafonom visine 5,5 metara u kompaktan radni prostor organizovan oko jasnoće i prostorne efikasnosti. Čelični mecanin bez bočnih zidnih veza omogućava vertikalno širenje uz očuvanje vizuelnog kontinuiteta. Providne i reflektujuće površine poboljšavaju percepciju prostora, dok skulpturalno stepenište i vertikalno osvetljenje naglašavaju visinu i prostornu dubinu. Kontrast materijala i integrisani dizajnerski sistemi omogućavaju istovremeno postojanje više funkcija u vizuelno mirnom i kontinuiranom okruženju.

Unique Properties
Gnt Interior Design Office reconfigures a 25 square meter interior with a 5.5 meter ceiling into a compact, highly integrated workspace. A steel mezzanine without side wall connections enables vertical expansion while preserving spatial continuity. The design functions as a multi-functional system, integrating concealed elements within a limited footprint. Transparent elements, mirrored surfaces, a sculptural staircase, and vertical lighting emphasize height, openness, and spatial perception.
Dimensions & Packaging
Area: 25 square meters. Ceiling height: 5.5 meters. The vertical dimension enabled the introduction of a steel mezzanine, allowing spatial expansion within a limited footprint. The compact floor area required precise planning, where all functional elements were integrated and concealed to optimize usability and maintain spatial clarity.

Production Technology
The project combines laminated solid wood parquet, solid wood elements, block marble, mirror surfaces, painted glass, and lacquered cabinetry. A steel mezzanine system was engineered without side wall connections. Custom detailing enabled the integration of hidden elements such as sink, television, and storage within fixed structures. Precision manufacturing and on-site adjustments were essential to accommodate material weight, spatial constraints, and structural requirements.
Design Challenge
The main challenge was stabilizing a steel mezzanine supported only by the floor without wall connections due to structural constraints. Transporting and installing heavy block marble within a limited space required sectional cutting. Municipal regulations restricted mezzanine depth, affecting circulation planning. Coordination with engineers and detailed redesign ensured structural safety and precise integration of all elements.
Research
This project is based on qualitative design research focusing on spatial efficiency within a compact, high-ceiling office. The objective was to integrate multiple functions without visual clutter. Methods included on-site measurements, mezzanine planning under municipal regulations, and layout studies using sketches and 3D models. The designer acted as both client and tester. Results showed that concealed systems improve usability and clarity.
Inspiration
Based on a “less is more” approach, the design is inspired by the challenge of integrating multiple functional requirements within a compact office space. It explores how complexity can be concealed within a clear spatial expression, using vertical expansion and a transparent mezzanine to enhance perception. Material contrast between block marble and solid wood informs the balance between density, warmth, and atmosphere.
Project Duration
The project started in November 2017 in Istanbul, Turkey and was completed in May 2018.
Operation Flow
The space operates through integrated and concealed elements that allow multiple functions to coexist without visual clutter. Storage, media units, and kitchen components are embedded within surfaces, enabling a clear workspace. Natural light is amplified by full-height glazing and reflective surfaces, while the mezzanine introduces vertical circulation. The result is an environment that remains open, adaptable, and easy to use, where functions are accessible yet visually hidden.
