Francesc Rifé designed this incredible Office and Showroom for Duravit in Barcelona, Spain.
As many of you already know, I’m in love with his work. Rifé just know how to make a great work with just a few materials/colors: mostly black, white and wood, and a touch of intense colour when needed.
Nendo designed another office near the Meguro river in Tokyo.
The Tokyo-based design company wanted the several spaces to be separate, but also to maintain a sense of connection between them.
To achieve that effect, they divided the space with walls that seem to sag and flop, enclosing the various spaces more than the usual office dividers, but less than actual walls.
Employees can move between the various spaces by walking over the lowest parts of the walls. Spaces that need more sound-resisting are enclosed with plastic curtains so that people can work without worrying about noise but also don’t feel isolated.
