\"57df7b69bb3e47af3f381b06342e8471_f466\"<\/a>German interior design experts, Designliga<\/a>, built their studio out of an industrial metal workshop in Munich, sharing the space with their partner in Web development, Form & Code.<\/p>\n

The space, Halle A, sits next to Munich\u2019s enormous power station, and is more like a small village than a workspace. The designers talked to each of their employees to make sure that individual preferences were accommodated before construction. Initially this large industrial space with 10m-high ceilings was cold to say the least, but it is now a community.<\/p>\n

Due to the buildings shear size, Designliga came up with a brilliant plan to construct two house-like structures within its interior. According to Christina Koepf, head of interior architecture and design at Designliga, \u201cThe space is so big that you don\u2019t really understand that you\u2019re inside a building, so we thought \u2018why not build things within?\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

The smaller of the two interior dwellings, \u201cGold House,\u201d is clad in brass Dibond aluminum composite panels. Dibond is an optimal material for interior applications due to its light-weight and durability. Although, Dibond is often seen as a signage material, it has the ability to be used in both interior and exterior design applications as well.<\/p>\n

The use of residential design within a large industrial space instantly creates a sense of warmth. Along with the other house-like structure, \u201cWhite House,\u201d the two buildings within buildings form what the employees call the \u201cThe Village Square.\u201d<\/p>\n

Further creating this sense of community and warmth, the designers installed a park bench, a street lamp, an open library, and an actual kitchen with a stove where employees take turns cooking for each other.<\/p>\n

Designliga took a harsh metal workshop and transformed it into a small city where employee ride their bikes through the buildings large metal doors right into their ‘Village Square.’<\/p>\n
