SONOS SOUNDBARS

Working with SONOS, AB innovated by introducing new shapes, inspired by Soundbars. Serving as an interface or curtain between the street and the workspace. The concept of activity-based working (ABW) evolves around the idea of giving people the possibility to do a work-related activity in a setting that is fully optimized to do that specific activity. Examples of such a setting are silent zones, collaboration zones, learning zones, social zones, etc. 

Today company offices and creative studios are transforming. They’re not just workplaces but attractors. To bring back remote workers to the office and to gain competitive advantage recruiting talented workers, commercial architecture must be many spaces at once: dynamic stages for collaboration, quiet places for creative concentration, combining indoor and outdoor, public and private. All the while, these spaces are symbols for the companies that inhabit them: a chance to express their originality and values. AB design studio signature commercial spaces are fluid, flexible, transparent, and teeming with natural light: places to ideate, collaborate and recreate.

Interior design can make businesses more productive and attract new talent. It can bring remote-leaning workers back to the office. It can change the way people see a brand. AB design studio employs a business-to-business strategy as an approach to commercial and tenant improvement projects utilizing several key factors: Company Goals, Future Expansion, User Functionality & Creativity, Company Identity & Branding. We work closely with our clients focusing on the values and goals of their company and vision. By understanding a company's values and culture, we explore, define and create architecture and interiors that reflect and inform its identity and ideals.
