In addition to official staff, the fund regularly hosts guests from other organizations for varying periods. The fund’s home is also a meeting place for partners and the site of occasional events; therefore, the space’s occupancy and purpose are constantly changing. We endeavored to create a space for creative collaboration that brings people together, while supporting the variety of meetings and activities that the fund hosts, now and in the future. Preference was given to the communal areas, which are inherently more adaptable; these spaces received a relatively large proportion of the total space, along with abundant natural light and views towards the urban landscape. The wish to enable different degrees of linkage between spaces according to need, brings the prevailing challenge for office design to achieve an accurate balance between privacy and integration, to a special significance in the fund’s offices. The custom-designed wood partitions we developed define this balance by controlling the flow of movement, visibility and sound.
