The design addresses site complexities with simple yet elegant movable parts. Each floor uses partitions to shape the space, which can be easily moved to change the dynamics of different areas. These felt partitions serve acoustic functions and display changing artworks, acting as both visual and unifying elements. The felt varieties and shades of grey evoke the look of business suits, appealing to the business clientele.

Materials are minimized to unify the space while creating diverse uses. The limited materials palette and singular elements throughout the interior ensure a sustainable and economical outcome. Ornamental floor patterns add unity, while marble bars, feature lighting, and bronze details provide a dramatic touch. Brass and warm colours accent the space and accessories. Luxurious feature furniture and theatrical lighting throughout the club convey the drama of conducting business.

The lounge is the most practical and flexible space, designed for both private work and conversation. Mixed-use zones and seating options accommodate various needs. Designed as a gallery, partitions can be moved for installations or talks, or reconfigured for a singular meeting space. The adaptable lighting enhances the space’s versatility.
