Open without exposing
The proposed partition layout creates long views protected by bookcases, acoustic curtains and planting.

01 / The starting point
A place to understand.
Uses to question.
The cellular layout isolated teams, complicated collaboration and projected a distant image. Acoustics and the lack of informal spaces had become daily irritations.
02 / The intention
What the proposal
seeks to resolve.
Explore a workplace that brings the team together, supports different ways of working and expresses a restrained professional identity, with a phased approach compatible with partial occupation.

03 / The design direction
An atmosphere conceived
as a continuous thread.
A working landscape rather than an open-plan office. Pale ash provides a common line, moss-coloured felt absorbs sound and darker thresholds signal spaces for concentration.
04 / The design decisions
Precise choices,
connected to a use.
Every choice responds to the starting point and shows how KAMILI connects layout, use, light and materials.
Vary the rhythm
A communal table, individual desks, alcoves and a project room support both focused work and quick conversations.
Plan the phases
The study identifies a zone-by-zone principle to limit disruption, to be refined with contractors for the actual site.
05 / Initial state & proposal
Compare the starting point
with KAMILI’s intention.
These visualisations form part of a spatial study. They develop an initial state and a design proposal; they do not document a completed project.
06 / The intended quality
A clearer response,
in use and atmosphere.
The proposal aims to simplify communication without sacrificing calm. The organisation is clear from arrival and allows people to choose an environment suited to the task.
Nature of the study
Spatial studyAn independent study developed by KAMILI to present a design process and point of view. It does not document a completed project.Designer’s note
“We wanted to move beyond the opposition between enclosed offices and one large open plan. The quality lies in the transitions: seeing without being exposed, collaborating without disturbing.”
