Keep the shell. Test the working day.

The same fictional shell is used in both views. Existing-room locations are assumptions for this study: two small focus rooms, an enclosed meeting room and a café. The proposal tests how an open work zone could support a busy day while retaining those rooms.

Brief → layout → next decision

Three choices worth testing.

  1. Focus at the edge. Keep two small rooms separate from the central shared work setting.
  2. Connect the rooms. A continuous route links arrival, meeting, café and the open work zone.
  3. Investigate reuse. Test the existing enclosures and furniture before agreeing changes.

What the study clarifies

The relationship between the brief, room mix, furniture and connecting space.

What to verify next

Measured dimensions, busy-day assumptions, services, accessibility and professional design requirements.

The next conversation

Compare alternatives and agree the scope of a verified test fit before a lease or construction commitment.

Concept study, not a client project. Drawings are not to scale and do not establish verified occupancy, compliance or cost.

Bring your own working day into focus.
