The Barista Bar
During the Pandemic we were extremely busy designing and building a very interesting custom office fit-out project with Kubit Architekten.
The Barista-Bar and Co-working office was a response to the needs of a working community who were ready to rejoin their colleagues and friends in an office setting, after almost 2 years of home-office.
We made the office a destination.
Client: Confidential
Architects: Kubit Architekten (Tim Pardoe, Ben Donner, Arne Meyer)
Location: Hamburg, Germany
Size: 600m2
Project Team: CBRE (PM) + Averdung (TGA)
Photography: Arne Schulz
Graphic walls: The Studios
Builder: Rum Projects
This project was redesigned mid-pandemic.
Originally planned as a typical office fit-out, we worked closely with our client to develop a completely new brief and function for the space.
Conceived as a private co-working space, this project features a coffee bar and flexible team or individual working zones.
This space catered to those tired of working from home and needing spontaneous team meeting. Having an amazing coffee bar was simply a bonus!
As people were coming back to work after such a long time in isolation, the environment should be a comfortable one.
Natural materials, warmer colours, lots of plants and fun graphics.
We wanted to create a space that looked and felt healthy and pleasant.
Importance of Lighting + Loose Furniture
We take the selections of furniture and light fittings very seriously.
Much of our work is custom, and designed specifically for the function and feel of the atmosphere we are creating. Quality loose furniture is a playful way of introducing human scale elements that add warmth and comfort to our spaces.
Collaboration
Our clients, who like to remain anonymous, are pretty awesome to work with.
They like to experiment, they like to push the limits, and they like to give us quite a bit of rope with which to test our skills.
Working closely with our client, our consultants and our specialist trades is the reason we can create such high quality end results. Its very much a team effort.
