Kinetic Screens
The challenge? How do we separate open, glass-walled executive offices from the “break room” while keeping the plan open? It's not a huge office suite, so no need to make it feel smaller than it actually is by dividing space with a solid wall.
So naturally, we started with a solid wall and poked some holes in it. But the permanence still felt too small, too mundane. But simply removing the wall would give financial advisors and their clients a direct line of sight into the kitchen and break room.
The design solution? Open air screens. And while we’re at it, let’s go kinetic and allow them to rotate on pivots installed in the floor and ceiling.
SCREEN : We design a custom pattern. Worked with Cole at AZ MFG Inc to laser cut sheets of steel with a welded bar stock frame. Powder coat and then install on pivots.
KITCHEN : A high end, showpiece kitchen that you wouldn’t mind seeing right through the screens.
These are the things that make us smile. Unexpected moments. A client may walk in and not realize the screens move with just the flick of a wrist until their second or third visit. Each time they may even notice the screens appear to be in a different position than before. But when they do, they smile too.
