There’s no traditional reception desk, but rather an informal arrangement, with a bespoke table where the admin team can work and greet people on entry, before accompanying them to a coffee bar area to offer drinks. The long, curved ‘kidney bean’ reception desk is a purpose-designed joinery item, and its shape is reflected both in the carpet below and a further ceiling cut-out above, repeating the dark- sprayed ceiling treatment of the dominant nautilus shell feature. The ceiling space houses two curving light pendants – the Tense Pendant Light from New Works. The lighting provides drama and sets the scene for a space brimming with organic curves and rounded edges. The curved, organic-shaped drinks station is monolithic in form and features a sand- blasted solid surface finish in Corian, plus timber laminate doors with inset grab handles. A timber display area sits behind the coffee bar and a booth seating area sits immediately to one side, within a curved-wall inset space. The seating here is upholstered in faded-blue Kvadrat fabric and is bordered by a joinery


planter, offering users a semi-private setting. A more classical lounge seating area is located opposite, in front of curving, banquette benches and planting, set around a structural column. The column has a table built around it for drinks and also features a halo of vertical lighting rods at its top. Three phone booth spaces complete the zones, so that visitors can also make calls should they need to. Flooring features a circulation route intimated by concrete-finish Amtico flooring, with Havwoods timber hardwood flooring to either side. Beyond this space, users can either move into the main body of the ofice or enter the boardroom and adjoining design studio. The timber-floored boardroom houses a 12-person curved table, together with Modus Balance chairs, upholstered in a muted terracotta, while the shape of the dark-sprayed, overhead ceiling cut-out is reflected by the carpet below. A rounded lighting lozenge is a Tekiò Circular by Santa &Cole, while one wall has an inset acoustic panel in a deep red, featuring deconstructed nautilus-shell patterns. Glass sliding doors open into the adjacent design studio, which features timber flooring
