Nest Commercial Interior

Golden A' Design Award Winner 2020

A contemporary commercial interior unfolds before the listener, characterized by flowing wooden architectural elements and comfortable seating arrangements bathed in natural light. Beginning orientation from the left foreground, substantial seating pieces upholstered in materials suggesting cool, smooth leather in deep charcoal gray and rich forest green occupy the lower portion of the space, their surfaces appearing supple yet firm, with small button indentations creating regular tactile patterns across backrests and seat cushions. These furnishings rest upon pale gray flooring with the cool, smooth character of polished concrete, offering stable visual grounding throughout the composition. Moving rightward, a magnificent curving wooden lattice structure commands attention, its warm honey-amber tones suggesting the pleasant warmth of sun-touched timber, the surface appearing smooth yet retaining visible grain patterns that speak to natural origins. This screen rises from floor to ceiling, composed of rectangular openings arranged in grid formation, each aperture approximately arm-span width, permitting light and visual connection through to spaces beyond while creating gentle territorial definition. The wood curves in a sweeping serpentine path, flowing from the right edge toward the background left, this undulating movement suggesting organic forms like flowing water or wind-shaped dunes. Through the lattice openings, additional seating areas become visible, similarly appointed with dark leather furnishings and wooden tables in matching tones. Abundant green plants punctuate the space, their leaves extending in spiky formations suggesting dracaena and palm varieties, introducing fresh organic fragrance associations and the gentle rustling sounds of foliage. Above, a clean white ceiling extends smoothly, interrupted by slowly rotating ceiling fans with metallic blades catching light, suggesting gentle air movement providing cooling comfort. Natural light floods generously through extensive glazing visible at right, producing warm, bright illumination suggesting midday conditions, the atmosphere conveying productive energy balanced with comfortable relaxation.

The floor is shared by two unique professionals- advocates and architects that calls for varied hierarchical orders. Choice and detailing of elements was an endeavor to keep the overall look grounded, earthy and to revive the local artistry and building materials. The blend and application of eco-friendly materials, size of openings, all have been driven by recalling the local climate to make an agreeable environment re-arousing the lost practices together structuring sustainable practice.
