Zemberek Designs New Curvilinear Studio for Istanbul's Denim R&D

Arguably one of the most architecturally forward workplaces anywhere, Zemberek Design Office was asked to design the denim research and development studio for a textile company in Istanbul. Based on the concept of a fluid working space and facilitation of dynamic interactions between co-workers and with items on display, the space is done in a curvilinear style with no fixed desk spaces for employees, while providing easy access to the company’s products on the wall. Featuring recessed pits with communal seating and tables, the space utilizes materials, such as wooden flooring and fluid concrete walls, paired with natural and artificial lighting to direct attention to the products on display. Drawers built into the pits also allow for neatly hidden storage to maintain the minimalist and restrained atmosphere. The result is a studio without precedent, and one that will surely give rise to an assuredly unique working environment.
