*건축가, 디자이너를 위한 작업공간 [ IND Architects ] Office Design

건축가와 디자이너를 위한 오피스. 기존 인더스트리얼 환경은 그들의 창의력을 자극하는 상상공간이자 다양한 프로젝트를 집중도 있게 수행 할 수 있는 작업공간으로 리뉴얼 된다. 건축가와 디자이너를 위한 현대적이며 모던한 공간은 크게 두개의 공간으로 구성된다. 먼저 1층에 위치한 디자이너 오피스는 2층 높이의 오픈 공간으로 2층에 자리한 건축가 오피스와 분리, 조성된다. 여기에 기존 공간의 흔적을 연속시키는 인더스트리얼 디자인은 2층 높이의 층고와 콘크리트 구조물 및 콘크리트 천장으로 새로운 디자인 요소; 백색 페인트 벽 마감과 감각적인 그래픽과 조화를 이루며 오피스 인테리어의 캐릭터를 정의하게 된다. (각각 작업공간에는 그들의 작업; 그림과 도면을 부착 할 수 있도록 보드가 준비되어 그들의 프로젝트를 집중도 있게 이끌어 준다.) 그리고 추가적으로 설치된 두개의 오픈 스페이스는 1층에 위치한 리셉션 존, 미팅룸 그리고 커피-포인트, 그리고 2층에 자리한 레져 스페이스와 직원들의 오픈미팅으로 구성된다. ARTPLAY 디자인 센터와 스튜디오로 이루어진 건축사 사무실은 독특한 인테리어로 공간을 정의하기 보다 기존공간을 최대한 활용하는 최소한의 개입으로 넓은 스펙트럼을 보여주는데 의의가 있다.

When working on the project of IND Architects office, we entrusted ourselves with the task to create a contemporary creative space with a minimum of distracting elements, so that designers and architects could focus on their projects as much as possible. The office has become a business card and a reflection of the studio which has implemented a number of projects over five years of its existence.

The office has been arranged in ARTPLAY Design Center and has been decorated in the loft style. Designers have shown the benefits of a former industrial premise to their best advantage — they have kept the double-floor height area in some places, have deliberately left the concrete ceiling panels unpainted and have retained the original concrete structure – like timber shutter texture on the first floor and ceiling panels on the second floor. Exposed black-colored utilities accentuate the industrial past of the building and form a contrast to white walls of the office.

The office has been divided into two zones — one is a volumetric double-floor height area for designers and another one is a cozy space on the second floor for architects. The walls of the latter one are used for attaching the pictures and drawings of studio’s current projects. In addition to two open space zones, a reception zone, a meeting room, and a coffee-point have been arranged on the first floor; an office, a leisure area, and an open meeting room for the staff may be found on the second floor. Two or three person meetings may also be held at a round table in the first-floor open space. Two separate wardrobes have been arranged for the staff and guests – one is at the entrance and another one is at the meeting room.

Grey and white are basic interior colors. Bright yellow details – such as infographics, a creatively different full-wall unicorn in the first-floor open space, and small items, like flower cache-pots, desk folders, and décor details – stand out sharply against quiet shades. The infographics had been developed as a part of a new corporate style of IND Architects and was patterned by the studio’s architects.

In the leisure area, the employees may catch a break in a work process and talk about their goings, interesting projects and news while playing darts or foosball or read an interesting book nestling themselves down on a convenient pouf.
