An open office interior precedent demonstrating disciplined alignment of linear workstations, exposed building services, and rhythmic task lighting.
- What we like about this project
- Massive horizontal HVAC ducts are wrapped to match the clean white overhead aesthetic while plumbing and conduit stay raw.

- Geometry
- Deep linear perspective featuring repeating rows of workstations aligned with a central ceiling duct run.
- Structural guess
- Concrete floor slab with exposed industrial columns and ceiling ductwork.
- Spatial scale
- Large open-plan office space at human working scale under high ceilings.
- Lighting
- Soft overcast daylight from large lateral windows combined with localized warm task lighting on desks.
- Atmosphere
- Clean, orderly, and focused with a cool industrial shell warmed by desk lamps.
- Environmental context
- Urban interior within a multi-story commercial building, with neighboring brick buildings visible outside.
- Spatial experience
- The long, orderly room pulls the eye down the workstation axis while daylight floods in from tall side windows.
- Composition rhythm
- Repeating vertical window bays and sequential workstation clusters establish a strong rhythmic perspective.
