Energetic And Cool Office Design Have A Pinch Of Casual Planning | Rika Architecture
Energetic and cool office design have a pinch of casual planning with a more formal working setup. A 1500 sq.ft. commercial space for a Marketing company, the brief was for a variety of informal ‘fun’ workspaces – which were reminiscent of working in a café. Designing of the office started with creating such simple casual spaces and plan evolved around these interesting corners. The layout facilitates an open office culture, creating spaces which encourage interaction between team members. Unobstructed view of the city with a generous ceiling height of 15 ft. were capitalized upon.
