Exposing the 100-year-old fabric of the existing building, HHB Architects developed an office space with low-tech techniques and materials, using elements that draw on a number of art references. Aiming to make work spaces that encourage users to take breaks and create healthy habits avoiding a sedentary lifestyle and reducing screen times; I looked at modern offices that are designed with a user-centered approach in mind. Open spaces and the addition of comfortable break areas with a kitchen are increasingly common to provide employees with an enjoyable and homely environment.

Location London, UK
The architects’ own studio and home. Efficient use of a small space, with a limited material and colour palette which successfully creates an inspiring and productive environment to work in. The design ensures high levels of day lighting and the split levels allow for a flowing transition between the garden and office. Bringing elements of fun in the details, this case study informed how best to create an enriching and focused learning space.
