This amazing work of Interior Space and Exhibition Design seamlessly combines modern and progressive corporate design with the unspoiled nature of Bulgaria. The use of acoustic furniture, acoustic panels, acoustic separators, acoustic lampshade and wooden pergola all work together to create a soundproof environment, while the room reservation display and management system for room booking provide an efficient way to manage the office space. The end result is a functional office space that provides a 360 degree view of Sofia and its surrounding mountains. Truly inspiring!
