Magazine Office

Site Location: 510 5th Ave., New York, NY 10036
 

Project Description: Design an office space for a food and travel magazine.
 

Concept: The design concept, titled "In Motion," reflects the dynamic nature of the magazine, which focuses on food and travel. The workspace is designed to encourage collaboration and transparency through strategically placed partitions that allow varying levels of visibility and interaction. The space embodies fluidity, motion, and softness through the use of curved forms and diverse cladding materials, providing both tactile and visual experiences. A signature curved staircase integrates both levels of the workspace, enhancing the sense of motion. The partitions not only facilitate way finding but also create flexible spaces with varying degrees of privacy, adapting to the needs of the staff.
 

Key Design Elements: The office design features a signature 'S' curved staircase that symbolizes motion and seamlessly connects both levels of the workspace. The use of five distinct wall types and curved walls adds visual interest and emphasizes fluidity throughout the space. To create an energizing work environment, a vibrant color palette is employed, making the office both visually stimulating and conducive to creativity. These design elements work together to create a dynamic, collaborative, and adaptable workspace.
