Coworking space provider Huckletree hired architecture and interior design firm Material Works Architecture to design their new office in London, England.
“The design accommodates a diverse range of working patterns with the ground and top floors devoid of desks and instead given over to a range of spaces designed for collaboration and interaction. At ground level these range from traditional meeting rooms to touch-down work stations and a barista station. The upper-floor is modelled around the members bar, with banquette seating and sliding partitions arranged to create varying levels of intimacy from a corner snug to the open roof terrace.
Throughout, materials have been chosen for their minimal embodied energy and commitment to cradle to cradle life cycles. Recycled plastics are used throughout to create work-tops and joinery alongside natural wood wool and timbers in dyed finishes. New flooring and fabrics are 100% closed-loop recyclable and low carbon graphene based paints were used throughout. As as result the works achieve the maximum gold rating SKA sustainability certification*.
Designs are further defined by a commitment to occupant wellness with natural, non-toxic materials and finishes used throughout. An abundance of greenery further improves air-quality, enhanced by air quality sensors providing live data to inform ventilation requirements.”
