An original office design & fit-out concept exploring how material, proportion and practical use can work together.
Design concept · Forma Workplaces · Illustrative study, not a completed client project
The brief
Workplaces designed around people, technology and the move-in programme. This study explores a setting where daily use and a clear visual language guide the design together.
The design thinking
Forma is the workplace specialist within Fitworks. We connect the needs of people with the realities of a floorplate, the technology they use and the programme needed to make a move work. The concept brings that approach into a spatial idea, using a restrained material palette and clear relationships between the main elements.
From concept to your property
A visual direction is the beginning of a conversation. Translating it into a project requires measured information, a site review, specialist coordination and an agreed specification.
The workplace must coordinate acoustics, furniture, IT, AV and building services around the way each room is used.
Illustrative design study · No client or completed build is claimed.
Illustrative workplace redesign
Balance concentration, conversation and teamwork with a plan based on actual work patterns rather than headcount alone.
Design decisions
Agree focus, meeting and support-space needs before the test fit.
Treat room privacy as a complete construction requirement.
Plan refurbishment phases and the move with the operating business.
