Architectural practice This studio Avoid Contract furniture While designing this London OfficeOptions to use instead Rebuilt material The second hand was seen or found on the site.
The open-plan interior located in a former industrial building in Shoreditch was prepared This studio To act as both an office and creative place for SaltAn independent PR studio that closely supports the design.
The interior has a neutral color palette, which has a metal hardware offset by hot cream, brown and begs, and does not have a certain meeting room.
Instead, the functionality of work, meeting and brakeout areas is defined by the use of large, a pair of mobile tables, a length of 3.6 meters and a pair of 2.3 meters.
They were fashioned by the studio using the old steel catering surfaces purchased on the eBay and crown with a top of the remaining cork with white American oak.
“We saved wooden residue pieces and a scrap roll of cork for the desk and meeting table,” said Cells Bolte, the founding director of salt.
In addition to the wheels of castor at the end of the legs, the tables are allowed to move as required, which means that they can be used as a communal desk and lunch table according to the day, and after hours, negotiations, events and photography shoots went out in a mixed-use site for the way the space was turned out.
Also the table, stainless steel bookcase was also originally a very different purpose. Now the company’s media collection residence, they worked as a butcher shelves before being purchased from the gummotry for the project.
This allowed this studio to avoid relying on commercial contract furniture using existing materials and other hand items, along with maintaining a basic plan and cost.
According to the studio, large -scale goods are generally less strong and have more negative environmental effects than renovated pieces.
The studio said, “Obstacles really became an opportunity – the introduction of productive friction that exposes creativity and innovation, was easily available to all materials instead,” the studio said.
The skeleton of the pre -kitchen was reused instead of being completely replaced, can be reused elsewhere with old cabinet fronts and a kitchen sink.
With a kitchen integrated by fronts made of chocolate brown valecromat sheeting, only two new cabinets are required to be added, materials made from recycled softwood fibers.
“The important challenge of taking such a strict approach to the reuse of the material is that the design must be favorable to provide,” the salt said.
“Designing in this way requires a flexible vision, as well as time and patience for sourcing and a little wishes.”
With no internal walls, different areas of space are separated by a sheer patchwork curtain created by textile designer Georgia bosonWhich he made from end-of-roll linen.
It hangs from one of the structural steel beams, which was taken out in a terracotta red, with columns, which replaced the black finish already painted.
“From the other hand and inherited materials, what could be done at that time that the studio could be sour,” salt said.
“As a result, the salt headquarters is naturally unique with an authenticity and depth that could not be completely repeated with new materials.”
