Renovation of a garage place to an office space

Commercial › Office

This project is an adaptive re-use renovation of a garage to an office + library. The plan is a synthesis of organizing the work zones for utility and recycled material to new configurations. The vertical bookshelves, lateral pin-up wall and linear railing, horizontal desks and catwalk, and diagonal stair, are interwoven to integrate the efficiency of a small volume with geometric shapes superimposed in the space. The palette is also intended to express contrast-gray for the walkway and black for desks and linear elements. A white translucent pleated shade controls solar glare for the large work surface.
