Nara for Avira Studio
Isolation Rooms for an Office SpaceA design & build project created in collaboration with Ar. Omri Bornstein. The brief asked us to design two spaces that could serve both as small meeting rooms (for 2–3 people) and as temporary retreats from the hectic office environment.
The diagonal back wall made the left room quite narrow, which we saw as an opportunity to play with proportions, add storage space beneath it, and create a more dynamic façade. As a result, the right room became a more formal, bench-seating space, while the left one invites a quieter, more introspective experience, where one sits on the floor and works in solitude.
The entire process, from the first sketch to the final screw, took just nine days.
The studio members named the rooms
after the Japanese city,
Nara, for their hinted reference to Japanese architecture.
