STORY
The office design of AEQUO has to maintain an ordinary rhythm the company used to live in. The laconic tables and chairs alternate with soft armchairs and sofas like important businesses and rest.
NOT LOVE, BUT A TRIANGLE: DESIGNER – LAWYER – LESSOR
The space is rented, so a lessor has joined our dialogue with clients. We agreed on the idea that the design concept is a minimalist office with contemporary elements. The lessor asked not to ruin the Armstrong ceiling. We just decorate it according to the general style.
The wooden waiting room is the first thing you see, crossing the threshold of the office. Light wood harmoniously complements the basic hues – blue and gray. These two are corporate colors, we built the interior color solution on.
Open cupboard library (2 in 1) zone the space, highlighting the waiting area. Chair and sofa from the Italian brand Arflex in a deep blue color comfortably settled down near the window.
TWO MEETING ROOMS
The main meeting room resembles a man in business suit. A little austerity and no frills. 3D waves on the walls filled pauses in the cold gray interior, and sculptures of contemporary masters complete the impression. The epicenter of the space is unique black lamps T5 / 3 patinated with gold, and created by Sergey Makhno.
It is also the place for a big friend – a table for 12 people. This ash giant on the parallel pillars basis was developed specifically for the project. The second space combines the functions of a cabinet and a room for meetings. Matte glass walls and sliding doors separate it from a hallway. Before entering you stop to read the decorative inscriptions chaotically scattered on the surface. Iron can be fragile, says our collection of luminaruies «Iron Lamp». The ideal shape, color, size.
