Using an eclectic palette of colours and range of materials, Riverwood Library’s new space features layers of visual interest at every turn.

Throughout the libraries open layout, parts of the original structure are interjected with new furniture, lighting and mosaic glass panelling creating a fun, contemporary environment.

Cascading along the natural light filled windows, our Gogo and Sofi Ottomans paired with Halo Coffee Tables welcome you as you enter the library.

Using our Cooper, Cali and Clip S chairs, a theme of red and blue is incorporated into every room, transitioning from one space to the next effortlessly.

In the middle of the library, our Keywork Spine desk and Space chairs are used for visitors seeking help and looking for more information. Using a combination of Natural Oak and White finishes, a bold contrast is made with the geometric carpet design.

Our Keywork Tables paired with red Clip S chairs create an energetic burst of collaborative and training areas. Moving upstairs, the Clip S’ are combined with Flip tables for more intimate meeting rooms. The colour scheme is continued with the Keywork workstations and Trak Screen system, for a cohesive look and feel.

Designed by CK Design, Riverwood Library features eye-catching details and bold colours throughout for visual impact. Bringing in new and innovative ideas to the traditional space a modern aesthetic was achieved.

The modern office has an enthusiasm for open workplaces. They are great at fostering collaboration and communication. However, the need for quiet spaces in an office design has increased to cater to all employee needs and wellbeing.

Here are 3 tips on how to create quiet spaces in your office:

Unassigned or Enclosed rooms:
Designing an office with designated quiet spaces allows employees to make phone calls, hold meetings and escape office chatter without distraction. Quiet rooms should be open and uncluttered with minimal furniture to enhance focus and productivity. Integrating glass doors also creates privacy while maintaining visibility.
Furniture To Define Spaces:
If structural changes are not an option, using furniture to mimic the feel a of a private office can have the same benefits. Products like high back and side lounges such as the Benj or Hush paired with a small table creates an ancillary area as an alternative to an employee's primary workspace.
Walls or Dividers
Creating boundaries using walls or dividers within the open office defines private and focused individual spaces. Freestanding screens such as the Scape or Local screen allow employees to adjust their work setting to suit their needs without disrupting the overall design of the office. Walls and privacy screens maximise the potential of a space, absorb the cacophony and create a quiet havens
