Project name: Assemble Office. Location: Melbourne, Australia. Design Team: Assemble – Quino Holland, Giuseppe Demaio and Ben Keck. Construction: Local Spaces – Wes Old, Mark Coules, Lachlan Chapman and Maxi WalkerThe existing office of Melbourne-based Assemble studio was largely open and made of concrete, leading to terrible acoustics and ample echoing. To combat this issue Assemble’s designers created their own riveted installation; it covers pipes, ductwork, smoke detectors, fire alarms, an air conditioning system and a labyrinth of “other ugly services” beneath it.“Our aim was to create a low cost, flexible workspace that would be an inspiring home for our varied creative projects,” says Giuseppe Demaio, director of Assemble. “As a design-obsessed organisation, we felt our own studio was the perfect opportunity to showcase for our design sensibility and skills.”The timber installation was constructed by Localspaces and was made of sustainably-harvested plantation pine with minimal waste. Battens measuring 45-by-90mm and 20-by-40mm interlink to form the mirrored triangular structure. 10 points from us.Related Posts: So Hot Right Now // Triangles in Architecture.
