RAI refurbishes HQ

Interior design
POLAND Gdańsk-based construction company RAI has refurbished its head offices.
The new interior design was drawn up by the Michael Design studio with the office being divided into a number of zones including a working area for desks, a kitchenette, a toilet and a conference area. Semi-transparent division walls in steel connectors are used to separate the areas from one another, making it possible to arrange small office spaces with plenty of light. The office has been designed in an elegant industrial style with the entire office floor covered with large grey tiles. The wall at the entrance is decorated with a vertical structure made of rust-coloured grès tiles as well as two blue overlapping glass panes. The rusty orange and blue colours allude to the colours of RAI’s logo. The kitchen also features similar colours. “My aim was to create a personalised office that met the wishes of the client. While creating the design I also wanted to avoid copying clichéd office developments and using readily available mass-produced office furniture. That is why every detail such as the table legs, frames, division walls and furniture was designed especially for this personalised place,” explained Helena Michel, an architect with Michel Design.
