Custom-Made Joinery at the Whitlam Library, Cabramatta

April 4, 2017

The Cabramatta library recently received a full face lift, offering its visitors a brand new space to think, read and create.

A versatile system of bench seating and joinery was designed by Antoniades Architects and perfectly integrated into the building's existing shell.

Manufactured locally in our Mascot factories, the upholstered bench seats feature integrated power stations and offer informal spaces to relax and read in while minimalist tables and individual workstations provide the perfect place for team work or personal studies.

Bookcases and storage units were created to blend flawlessly within the space with colour selections matching the upholstery perfectly.

Designed to encourage interaction with the space and provide a modern way for users to work, Cabramatta library has been built to cater for today's demands.

What Office Design Trends Can We Expect In 2017?

February 21, 2017

As we have seen workplaces shift increasingly from traditional office layouts to open plan spaces in the last few decades, personalisation has now become the focus of designers. The way we are working has changed, we are becoming more and more mobile and designers recognise the need to capture the organisation's DNA, to understand employees and the way they carry out their day-to-day job. They also acknowledge that our work environment undeniably impacts our mood and productivity.

Let's have a look at what 2017 has in store for us.

- Embracing technology: smart offices embrace and integrate technologies. The use of apps to book a meeting room, the ability to charge devices and plug in from anywhere in the office with ample power sockets available, connect wirelessly to any screen and access our files remotely sitting at a cafe or at home from the cloud will all contribute to higher mobility

- Promoting health and well-being: ergonomic seating, height adjustable workstations, chill-out zones, lunch time yoga classes or simply introducing natural light and indoor plants or vertical gardens are proven to boost productivity and reduce stress and absenteeism and are features we are going to see more and more in new offices

- Creating privacy: with the rise of open plan offices, finding privacy can prove a hard task. The use of acoustic screens, quiet rooms or acoustic furniture pods throughout the work space are all ways to create some much needed privacy

- Flexible and adaptable furniture: with employees' and companies' needs changing constantly, it is important to design your work space accordingly. Offering various work spaces that adapt to the task at hand, also known as Activity Based Working, is on the rise. Using adaptable furniture such as modular seating, desk pods, informal meeting spaces or workstations that can be reconfigured as needed will also help future proof your office.

Stay tune for more new products from us this year.
