This intervention was developed within an industrial building to create functional spaces for commercial and financial activity. The functionally requests were to realize isolated working areas for individual teams but, if necessary, they could be opened to allow multiple teams to work without dislocating their workstations. The style was supposed to suggest visually the character of the company, largely composed of young but highly qualified staff with an international background. Compositionally, we decided to maintain the industrial building pillars structure and not realize infill walls, spaces are defined by cabinets (full-height and double opening) and movable wings. A central corridor allows the connection between the parties, when the work asks for individual teams. For the interior design we have chosen a formal and minimalist style, characterized by square and rigid forms all in grey and black; contrasting wood elements will reduce the rigid formal impact in favor of a more youthful and personal touch.
