Project Description

This office space, retrofitted within a historic heritage building (late 1800s), is designed with the intention to preserve and celebrate. The objective for this office was to take the building back to its original form as much as possible within its new functional requirements. The space was opened up and the false ceiling removed to expose the beautiful truss structure of the roof. 

The office is designed in an open plan concept with the senior managers overlooking the open work hall. Lighting solutions are kept exposed in cable trays to minimize any cuttings etc, in the stone structure. Lightweight gypsum walls define the spaces.
