19 5月

Workstories是一家全球社区策划商业家具的设计公司，聘请了Thirdway Interiors来设计他们在英国伦敦的新办公室。

Workstories, a design company that curates commercial furniture from a global community, recently hired workplace design firm Thirdway Interiors to design their new office in London, England.

ThirdWay被指定创建一个位于伦敦办公家具区Clerkenwell中心的新陈列室，并扩展原有的空间，以适合他们日益增长的需求。他们现有的空间没有通道存在，所以很拥挤。新的工作空间将作为一个销售办公室，也可以让Workstories对客户展示自己的产品。在经历了品牌更新之后，新办公室反映了他们更新和现代的风格，但也保留了维多利亚时期仓库建筑的一些特征。

ThirdWay were appointed to create a new and fresh showroom, located within the heart of London’s office furniture district, Clerkenwell; an extension of their original space which was no longer suitable to their growing needs. Their existing space had no street-level presence which was proving to be limiting to the company. The new workspace was to function as a sales office as well as allow Workstories to display their products with pride to clients. Having also undergone a brand refresh, it was key to the client that their new office reflected their fresh and contemporary style but maintained some of the character of the Victorian warehouse building.

一楼拥有画廊的感觉，空间沐浴在自然光线下，营造出温馨开放的氛围。简约的空间更好的展示了Workstories的系列产品。带有凹槽玻璃细节的旋转式双折叠门可以在需要时与主展厅分开。部分原始砖墙外露，为明亮而现代的内饰增添了原始元素，与定制的霓虹灯和茶色的柔和色彩形成鲜明对比。

The ground floor has a gallery ambience, bathed in natural light and creating a welcoming and open space. It’s simplicity is what allows the Workstories product range to really stand out. The pivoting bi-fold doors with fluted-glass detail allow the sales office space to be opened up or sectioned off from the main showroom when needed. Some of the original brickwork is left exposed to add a raw element to the bright and modern interior, striking a contrast with the bespoke neon lighting and the soft pastel colours of the teapoint.

地下室的设计采用了丰富的深色材料和巧妙的照明设计，创造了更舒适的感觉。不同的区域由墙壁上的橡木贴面细木工定义，滑动门允许在必要时分隔会议室。黑色Carrara大理石酒吧，为客户提供了一个活动空间以及成为员工的社交中心。定制的饰面墙展示了织物和饰面样品，供客户体验。

The basement level design incorporates rich, dark materials and clever use of lighting to create a cosier feel .Different areas are defined by oak veneer joinery on the walls, and sliding, pocket doors allow the client to partition off a boardroom when necessary. A black Carrara marble bar provides the client with an event space and a social hub for employees. A bespoke ‘finishes wall’ offers an interactive display of fabric and finish samples for Workstories own clients to experience.

陈列室的设计具有挑战性，因为空间需要中性背景，以便更好的展示产品。这需要充分考虑调色板和饰面的更新和灵活性，以便空间能够随着产品更新和季节变化而变化。Thirway Interiors表示，设计的最终结果是一个令人惊叹的两层楼的昼夜空间，以及一个可以适合每个人的空间风格项目。

Showrooms are challenging to design by nature due to needing neutral backdrops to enable products to truly sing. The timelessness and flexibility of the colour palette and finishes needed to be heavily considered so that the space can evolve alongside product updates and seasonal changes. The end result is a stunning day-to-night space which spans two floors, and a project that can be adapted into a something-for-everyone style of space.
