Transformation of a glazier’s workshop into new office facilities for the production company Blonde Inc. The project began with a care­ful rethinking of plan and flow: opening up the structure to create a flexible, open workspace connected to social areas, complemented by smaller enclosed rooms for meetings and focus. New walls fol­low the rhythm of the original structure, reinforcing continuity be­tween old and new.

Materiality plays a central role. Aerated concrete adds weight and permanence, while custom-made galvanized steel ladders, inspired by pool ladders, link levels with a playful yet robust presence. Blue and grey tones permeate the interiors, echoing the client’s visual identity.

A series of bespoke furniture pieces were developed as integral parts of the architecture. Their monolithic forms draw directly from the proportions of the existing column-truss structure, while their materiality of blue pigmented concrete, creates a distinct atmo­sphere. Each piece is both functional and sculptural, anchoring the open plan and reinforcing the identity of the space. Text description by the architects.
