The design followed a contemporary and minimalist theme, using a neutral color scheme as a backdrop for the products, emphasizing simple forms. Industrial-inspired open ceilings and baffles added texture and depth, enhancing the contemporary vibe. The strategic use of indoor greenery introduced natural elements, adding a touch of tranquility to the ambiance. Furniture pieces in the reception and collaborative areas featured subtle color accents, adding visual interest and warmth. These elements combined to create a cohesive and inviting environment that fosters creativity, collaboration, and productivity.
