Office of the brand agency Svoyo mneniye in Moscow, Russia by za bor architectsAugust 14th, 2014 by Sumit Singhal
Article source: za bor architects «Svoyo mneniye»* brand agency is a small highly specialized agency engaged mainly in package designing. Despite the modest company size its portfolio has a lot of world famous clients. The agency had a wish to obtain an «unusual and creative space», separately discussed were areas for placement of a large number of exhibition samples. Thus the office room size was quite small — only 450 sq.m., however the premises had many interesting features: once there was a plant located in this building so it had very high ceilings, brick walls and huge window apertures.

In particular there was designed a still «bar counter» which also serves as a reception — workplace of the secretary, as well as wooden desktops, plywood flower holders and cases for samples. Working chair model is SAYL by Herman Miller, in the meeting zone and bar zone Pedralli and Arper chairs are used.
