Spread across a few floors, the workplace is housed in a rectilinear creating in London’s Mayfair neighbourhood with a gridded facade.

An amorphous Djinn sofa, produced by industrial designer Olivier Mourge in 1965, was put in one particular corner.
“We labored a whole lot with classic furniture, and as for the new parts we sourced, we hope they are so properly curated that no one particular would ever dare to toss them away,” reported Kohnen.
“Heat and inviting” interiors characterise a residing space-style house on the initially floor, which was produced in immediate distinction to the industrial look of the exterior.
An L-shaped velvet and stainless-steel sofa finished in a burnt orange hue was positioned following to white-stained brise soleil screens and a vibrant resin coffee table.
