Design project
We made our own interior design project for the first time.
There will be several zones in the Lab. The central is the conference zone for meetings, presentations, discussions, and chill out.
Next right — big working zone, where a whole team can work on some project together. The big table consists of four several separate 2-meters tables which can be reorganized if need.
At the left of the central zone — separate workstations for focused work.
Also, there is a small kitchen for coffee breaks. The entrance zone has a hallway separated from the rest.
The main idea that allowed creating such zoning — is to build a decorative column at the center of the place. And the long low wall near it. They will be stylized for concrete.
