The new DNA studio involved designing a new office space with a modern and stylish aesthetic. The space features a range of elements, including polished concrete floors, custom joinery, charred timber cladding, an iconic map wall, as well as a variety of plantings. One of the main objectives was to create a new studio space that fosters collaboration and a relaxed atmosphere.
The space features open layouts with comfortable and practical seating areas, encouraging interaction and collaboration among colleagues. The design also includes ample natural light, with large windows, creating a bright and uplifting atmosphere.
In addition to the layout, the design includes acoustic materials that reduce noise and improves sound quality, making it easier for colleagues to communicate effectively. The use of natural materials, such as charred timber, polished concrete and plants, further enhances the tactility and feel of the studio.
The polished concrete floors give the space an industrial and contemporary feel, while the custom joinery provides a practical and functional aspect to the design. The charred timber cladding adds warmth and texture to the space and creates a visually striking contrast against the concrete floors.
The iconic map wall serves as a focal point of the foyer, displaying the location of projects along with local and national awards winning designs the studio has completed. The map wall adds an element of interest to the space and provides a unique talking point for clients and colleagues alike.
