Inspired by an attempt to “capture” motion in a static form, the new head office for Omrania & Associates has an edgy, modern, and elegant design that not only reflects Omrania’s culture and heritage, but also our energetic yet casual work environment and philosophy.
The aim was to create an office space that balances being inviting and stimulating for creativity and collaboration, while allowing staff to be private and focused. To achieve this, a common studio space was created along one side of the triangular office space. Designers and engineers are seated in this open office environment while the management team work in glass-fronted spaces that are spread along the second facade.

The design also maximizes access to light and views by locating the shared services on the interior and the workstations that are used by the majority of staff in the open area with direct access to natural light.
The interior finishes give a warm feeling and create an inviting space that is bright, fresh and reflective of the creative minds that walk through the door every morning.
The partially frosted glass walls surround the management offices allowing light to penetrate the entire space while maintaining a sense of privacy.
Elegant wood accent walls add an element of sophistication to the design. Modernist furniture classics and office systems shine against a backdrop of sophisticated materials in soft, neutral hues.
