Dark warehouse turned into a lovely bright space unsing pallets

by Simona Ganea, posted in Office, on March 23rd, 2012

This is a subject that we’ve treated several times in our articles over the years. Yet it’s such as complex area that there’s always something new to say about it. Today we’re going to focus on a particular project. It’s the renovation and makeover of an office warehouse in Brazil. It’s the office of a sports marketing company. The project was developed by Simone Tasca.

Even though it’s a warehouse, there are some small spaces that caught our attention. For example, let’s take a look at the lounge area. It might seem airy and spacious now but it wasn’t always like this. The designer had the lever idea to focus on comfort and she created this unconventional décor. She used pallets that she painted white in order to create a multi-level lounge space. It’s a very comfortable space able to accommodate three times more persons that a regular sofa. The TV was hung on the opposite walls. The rest of the décor is very simple.

Minimalist and multifunctional desk/console table

by Simona Ganea, posted in Office, on March 21st, 2012

Ideally we could separate home from work. Sometimes it’s not possible and for some of us the two tend to become synonyms. For those who occasionally need a home office but don’t want to invest in it either because it’s not fully necessary or because the space doesn’t allow you, a multifunctional work space would be perfect. This piece of furniture would be a great addition.

It looks like a modern and very simple table. However, what you don’t see it that it also includes a pullout work surface and it has the potential of becoming a functional and practical desk. When not needed as such, the pullout work surface can remain hidden and the table can be used as a console desk/table. The Basis desk, regardless if it’s used as a desk or console table, is a great choice for any modern home.

by Monica Stavar, posted in Office, on March 19th, 2012

One year ago the consulting company in strategic communication and public affairs Links Associates, founded by former Foreign Ministry spokesman, Corina Vintan, moved in a historic villa in the Romanian market.The building was renovated and decorated by “instructions”, to ensure a working environment, but also a sense of family. “Ultimately, we spend at work most of the time, sometimes 10-12 hours, so it is important how we feel here,” explains the manager the decision for a historic villa, arranged on their own.

The ten employees of Link Associates company currently occupies a net area of 300 square meters, held on three floors. The Villa on Nicolae Iorga Street was built in 1896.

Perpetual Calendar by MoMA

by Loredana Sava, posted in Office, on March 17th, 2012

We live in a busy world and we feel like time is flying. We start the week and in the blink of an eye it is finished. That is why we all keep an eye on the calendar in order to know what date it is and in order to keep deadlines and so on. That is why wall and desk calendar were invented and all offices have at least one. But they are made of paper and printed and you must change them every month or every year. That is unless you have a smart calendar like this Perpetual Calendar by MoMA.

It was created in 1998 by the industrial designer Gideon Dagan. He had this great idea of combining a calendar and a decorative object in one and this is the result. The design of the calendar is very simple, yet very effective and with a great visual impact. The calendar has a big metal frame like a circle that has all the months engraved on the upper side. Then there’s a metal line with all the numbers from 1 to 31, representing the number of days in each month. And then all you have to do is move the magnetic orange balls to the corresponding month and day . Nice and useful. And all these for just $28 from Lumens.
