Peculiarities of the project
NAYADA has created a new office space for Albion education company. Its main corporate principles – reliability, flexibility, empathy and friendliness – were considered at projecting stage. Reorganization took place in the office with total area of 500 sq.m. Yuri Zeleny was involved as a designer, Aleksandr Dabakov – as a project manager.
The office design has one original element: a reception counter with a curved top looking inside, which is already very unusual. The designers went further and offered interesting materials and colors. The counter is decorated with curved glass and cherry-colored veneer. The wall behind the counter represents multitextured combination composed of veneered panels and sleek white panels made of PVC. The color palette is also very original: soft matte light-blue surface of glass is combined with ochreous shade of cherry veneer.
Neon light reflecting from different surfaces under various angles fancily discloses variety of textures. An unexpected yet very balanced element is a ceiling lamp executed in art-deco style.
Space becomes three-dimensional thanks to NAYADA-Crystal radial glass panels and NAYADA-Regina Line office partitions finished with veneer, as well as expressive all-glass rounded doors. The ceiling also draws attention. It is decorated with original suspended NAYADA-Regina constructions made of cherry-coloured veneer, traditional for this project.
It should be noted that this office space diligently avoids cold rational approach and leans towards cozy warm shades and soft lines. Carefully selected shapes, materials and color palette create a unique light solution adding lightness and expanding space. Cabinet units perfectly fit in the interior so that they stay practically unnoticed. In this project cabinet units finished with cherry-colored veneer are represented in three variations: with an purfle of a darker shade (venge), with glass and red insets (the latter are made of painted MDF with PVC film).
General manager's office has a high level of sound insulation thus maintaining a proper degree of privacy. The office is made of 10 mm thick glass partitions from NAYADA-Regina Line.
Delicate eclectic semi-rings of office space with all the details molded to one another reflect corporate principles of Albion company. Another mission of NAYADA is successfully completed.
