This office for a construction company in SM Megatower in Mandaluyong welcomes clients and staff with a “portal”-like entry way into an open reception fitted with seating for visitors. For the interior design, attention was given to the functional and environmental needs of a team of construction specialists moving through the hustle and bustle of work life in this district of development. Its interior materials were chosen around the concepts of “luxe noir” and “blanc luxe”, to invoke a sense of class and professionalism. Circulation is centered along a hall that travels through common spaces, workstations, and a comfortable executive office. For optimal functionality, large drawing tables and spaces for storage are provided.
