The briefing of the project is to develop the Elementis office interior design at Porto Business Plaza, with a total area of approximately 1900.00 m2, of which 800-900.00 m2 are dedicated to laboratories. The open space takes into account the hot-desk model, with a maximum density of 76 pax.
The main goal is to turn the Elementis lab into the highlight of the new office, in order to showcase the brand’s innovative approach. The lab is the most important structure in the office and has very specific functions: it acts as a “window” to the open space, allowing different activities, teams and interests to come together. A pavilion structure is proposed: an autonomous part which defines the programmatic diversity and the flexibility of the Porto office. Being the most important structure, the lab defines two parallel entry timelines that converge briefly: the first entry point is for the operations area (RH, internal teams) and a second entry point for the lab. The usage of different visual levels defines the limits of the open space and the lab, adding dynamism to the office and offering multiple perspectives so that the user may always discover something new.
is a project by studium . creative studio, the result of a selection and ambition of a multidisciplinary and complementary team, dedicated to the development of architecture, communication design and product design projects. Focused on the process and its irrefutability, studium is guided by its mojo, an assertive blend of rigorous vision, passion and oddity, a mojo that defines the way we design a career in the studio. Architects and designers aligned by a methodology and disciplined practice, known as Methodological System, in an environment characterized by a constant critic of the models of developing project.
studium is related with two other complementary entities, intrinsically linked to the interpolated vision of the creative practice:
AMMP – brand and management agency
and
PTMade – production house
These two arms are specialized development paths, related to the critique of each project and the content creation ecosystem. This way, we provide a complete approach to the communication and creative production systems. This is an ecosystem that unifies strategy, criticism and results.
