Walk the plan

This is the project's own plan. Choose a room, on the plan or from the list, to stand in it.

The general arrangement plan, from the working set. Choose a room.

Reception. Design visualisation.

A narrow floor, read in one line

The floor is narrow and deep: a reception, an open workspace for four, a director's cabin, a pantry and a toilet, one after another. Daylight reaches only one end. The brief asked for an office that felt considered and personal, not fitted out from a catalogue.

One element does most of the work. A coffered ceiling in warm terracotta, each coffer rimmed in light, runs from the reception through the workspace and draws the eye down the length of the plan.

Coffer, pendant, and a wall relief of small timber blocks that reads as a skyline.

The cabin changes register

A raw rock wall sits behind a curved walnut desk. A single ring pendant hangs over it and the light drops to a warm wash. The room is small, and it is meant to feel like the end of the walk through the office.
