An industrial mood in a late 19th-century building: we are talking about the new Fox headquarters in Rome, which has moved from its old premises in via Salaria (where Sky is also located) to new offices in downtown Piazza San Silvestro (in the same location that will also accommodate Apple).
Fox takes up the third floor of the building: 3500 m² for 200 people entirely designed by DEGW, the Lombardini22 Group’s brand devoted to the integrated design of workplaces: everything from the original consultancy phase to the stacking plan, including new concepts for using space (also for management) and with the introduction of ancillary areas custom-designed for miscellaneous work purposes.

The ArchiWorkshop foundation building was built on Yeonhui-ro, which is parallel to Ansan in Seoul. Most of the area is made up of type-1 residential districts, making it a quiet and comfortable residential area. With the recent acceleration in development of the Yeonnam-dong area, movements are also taking place in Yeonhui-dong is to reflect neighborhood-like atmospheres. Places made of neighborhood shops, rather than franchises, such as handicraft shops, craft coffee shops, craft beer shops, and Saruga markets (a local market brand) are creating Yeonhui-dong’s culture of high quality and originality. Here, where such pleasant routines take place, we decided to open the new life of ArchiWorkshop. ArchiWorkshop was founded in 2013 in a corner place of Bangbae-dong. It was a space of about 15 pyeong (approx. 49.6m2) located on the first floor, with three open sides. This was an attempt to openly show the studio of an architect. The ArchiWorkshop, located in Yeonhui-dong, is a space where the architects create everyday architecture. It is also a shared space where diverse cultural activities take place. Here, classical concerts are held regularly four times a year, and architectural works by ArchiWorkshop are displayed for the public.
