THE BRIEF
The sale office is located on one of the main avenues in
the centre of Tbilisi. The surrounding area is mostly for residential
use with some office buildings and banks in the area. There
are fashion shops and some other trading shops along the facade.
The concept behind this interior design is a 'transmitter' -
the device for transferring information. The device object is dedicated
to a specific function such as a sales desk. 'Transmitter'
desk creates intimate relationship between the client and the
customer, representing direct communicator for achieving needs
of future technologies.
The desk is made of layers cut from plywood, painted and
exposed inside it refers to how the system works and locates
the information.This gives the experience of engaging new technological
object which makes deep impact for committing to new
and easy way of using technologies and in particular TV. The
inside circle is made of durable rubber, coloured to accentuate
the feeling of hot connection.
The ceiling is a dark grey with plug-in like downlight diffusors.
Also red light identifies the place of IPTV decoder and
blue web browsing area. The ceiling is stretched french plastic
translucent fabric. The ceiling can be easily removed with
a heating element for lighting and ventilation maintenance. Though
these shapes form a random spatial organization, the flooring
grid and rectangular glass partitions hold this chaos in rigid
composition.
