Spaceplan as a standard furniture supplier, furnished workplaces with British office furniture leader, Senator.
Organically-shaped furniture was selected for the waiting and lounge zones which can be also used as working areas or can have a coffee on sofas Elle in bright colours from Danish Softline.
The reception areas dominate the contrasting colours. At the entrance is used glossy coverings and coatings in white, but the reception desk, as well as the podium, was designed in an oak finish. Interesting is using of black colour on the walls of the waiting zone, which thanks to the design furniture from Italian La Palma and True Design in bright yellow and blue looks representative but pleasant and comfortable.
The most interesting part of Roche's premises is definitely the meeting zone. We find the most diverse elements that are thematically and structurally different, but perfectly matched - Spanish tiles, black ceiling, polished podium, striking colours, plastic and wood.
This "agora" is designed not only as a kitchen but contains several types of sitting and is therefore predestined for different uses. Black bar stools from Basque Enea design is the popular Lotus chair line, which is also found on the stage next leatherette benches. The wooden bench complements the elegantly shaped Flow Chairs of the Lithuanian Ply Collection.
