About project
Furniture Fair is passionate about transforming spaces and breathing new life into every project we undertake. Recently, we had the privilege of collaborating with Samba, alongside two other esteemed companies, to embark on an exciting interior design journey.
As the ones selected from the pool of proposals, we were entrusted with furnishing and revitalising Samba's newly acquired building, offering a blank canvas to unleash our creativity.
The project allowed us to reimagine Samba’s workspace from scratch. With a clear vision to infuse the space with a fresh and dynamic ambience, we drew inspiration from the contrasting colours of Samba’s brand identity. Vibrant blues and oranges were strategically incorporated into the design scheme, adorning the walls with custom wallpaper, captivating artwork, and playful signage. We seamlessly integrated soothing leather tones to balance out the vibrancy, ensuring a harmonious and inviting environment.
Central to Samba’s vision was creating public areas that exuded warmth and hospitality, welcoming clients with open arms. Ample soft seating arrangements were carefully curated to accommodate visitors, ensuring no one was left standing. Moreover, the consulting and reception areas were thoughtfully designed to prioritise accessibility, catering to individuals with disabilities and facilitating seamless interactions.
We implemented custom cabinetry to optimise workspace functionality in the cubicle areas designated for intense phone usage. To mitigate noise disturbances, Enviro PET panels were strategically placed to absorb excess sound, fostering a conducive and productive work environment.
One of the project’s highlights was transforming Samba’s yearly accolades into a captivating art installation. By framing and showcasing these accolades on a dedicated wall, we celebrated the company’s achievements and instilled a sense of pride and motivation among its staff.
The transformation of Samba’s building from a grey and barren structure to a vibrant and modern workspace was genuinely remarkable. Our efforts breathed new life into the space, elevating the brand’s image and injecting a funky vibe into its surroundings.
Samba’s revamped workspace serves as a testament to our expertise, and we look forward to embarking on many more transformative journeys in the future.
