PROJECT BRIEF: Develop a sustainable, inclusive, and flexible work environment for Warby Parker, a revolutionary eye-wear brand famous for its altruistic business model and commitment towards social equity. Inspired by the brand’s mission to make the world a better place, the design promotes employee wellness and celebrates its philanthropic essence.
LOBBY AND RECEPTION AREA
CO N C E PT STAT E M E N T:
FLOOR PLAN: The Japanese concept “Ikigai” explores the idea of f inding happiness and fulf illment in life through purpose, that is, to unearth a deep desire, motivation, or simply a reason for being and continuing to exist. Warby Parker’s “Ikigai” was born with its founders, whose passion and commitment to make affordable designer eye-wear came f rom the need to make the world a more equitable and just place. The brand’s revolutionary essence and giving nature have the opportunity to be amplif ied if captured in the design of their retail and off ice spaces. These environments would become a physical manifestation of their “Ikigai”, a constant reminder for them and their community to continue leading with integrity and never forget about their “why”.

PROJECT BRIEF: Develop an experiential hotel design that challenges traditional design standards and building codes, pushing the limit of creative thinking in the built environment. The f inished result introduces guests to an immersive experience that awakens their senses and redef ines the boundaries of hospitality design, giving them an authentic look into the cultural landscape of Amsterdam.
Users can enjoy exquisite local cuisine in the Senses restaurant, which aims to provide a unique dinning in the dark experience inspired by the paradoxical theme.

traditions and cultural heritage, becoming the perfect example of a contradiction in time. Our experiential hotel design will embody the city’s unique dual essence, paying homage to the building’s

factory origin as well as its current open-minded reputation. Through an immersive design that is rooted in Amsterdam’s inclusive nature and global cultural presence, the hotel will offer guests an authentic experience of the city’s modern-day philosophy, allowing them to live in a time paradox where past and future become one and the same.

FURNITURE & FINISHES
Complying with the concept of duality, industrial f inishes such as wood and untreated metal are paired with more modern materials like glass and acrylic, achieving the perfect balance between fundamentally contrasting elements. Likewise, furniture selections with juxtaposing forms, textures and colors were selected to emphasize the paradoxical themes showcased throughout the hotel, creating a unique immersive experience rooted in f inding equilibrium in opposition.

APPROACH
HOW?
By using the school’s physical environment as a catalyst to transform school culture, impacting its curriculum, pedagogy, and overall operations in the long run. Through thoughtful design, schools can become vehicles to redesign education itself, defining what and how we learn by providing innovative and inspiring environments that are innately educational.

CO N C E PT STAT E M E N T: The Andean philosophy; “Ayni”, describes a system of reciprocity that bridges people, the planet, and the spiritual world. It is the understanding that every individual is part of a larger community, viewing mutual care as the only vehicle to build just, equitable, and successful societies based on love and compassion for all living things. The teachings and values of “Ayni” will be the driving principles behind the school’s design, fostering a culture of respect and harmony that encourages students to work together towards a common goal, uplifting each other to reach their highest potential. The physical environment will promote agency, collaboration, and integration, becoming a tool for giving, receiving, and growing in unity. This creates a safe and dignif ied learning environment that values male and female students equally, redef ining the role of girls in school as well as the limits of what they can achieve.
