      Important Looking PiratesAFA Fastigheter
  • We divided the floor plan into five 'scenarios' with individual sound, light and ambience, separated by heavy curtains. Alongside the more neutral workspaces, we designed a collection of bespoke fittings and furnishings, including meeting room seating, bathrooms and a private cinema. A cast-in-place concrete counter became the centrepiece of the social space. New and second-hand furniture, hand-picked decorative pieces, film props, knight's armour and technical gadgets complete the picture of a creative cornucopia. Recent additions include a pirate bar, a board game room and new meeting rooms.
