RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Research on art integration in contemporary office space was undertaken. As a result, walls, floor and ceiling have become the background for vintage object design, artwork and installations. The considerable attention has been paid to the selection of objects of art and their smooth adaptation to the interior. Sculptural panel by Zaha Hadid, sculpture designed from scratches by Santiago Calatrava and paintings by Le Corbusier can be found in the office.
CHALLENGE: The challenge was in the distinguished features of the business centre area that are massive building columns, polygonal configuration of the storey and low ceiling. Using the thoroughly considered scenery, the architects managed to turn disadvantages of the basic area into advantages of the future office. It is the implementation of the project that provides for the columns to be invisible, creating the impression of open plan, as well as spatial and aesthetic lightness.
