Classroom Chemistry Lab Inspires Agency Office Design
Dave Pinter
Kult Office in Singapore took the phrase ‘Stay in School’ to heart when they recently moved into their new space. The PR and advertising agency chose a former school as the site and worked with FarmWork architects on the new design. The resulting design ditched the cubicles and instead looks more like a science lab which aims to be a home for eccentric creative types. Kult wanted a space that would act as a laboratory for ideas.
The focal feature of the space is a large, clinical blue painted ceiling light fixture that contains 500+ test tubes. Lights are strategically placed to spell out Kult. Below the staff work at long laboratory style benches. Liquid filled vials and beakers dot the office.
The design creates a nice closed circle with the original context of the building. FarmWork successfully evolved the concept beyond the obvious and created a visual reinforcement for the quirky and experimental nature of Kult’s work.
