In London, UK, THISS Studio has designed a vibrant and flexible social hub called Common Knowledge, challenging the austerity often associated with the music industry. This modular, dynamic space facilitates knowledge sharing amongst music professionals and recording artists, featuring bespoke furniture, lighting, and shelving developed in collaboration with Mitre and Mondays. Embracing the building’s industrial heritage, the design employs a tactile palette of cork, aluminum, and sycamore to create a coworking environment that feels like a welcoming home away from home.

YIT Offices by AT26 Architects in Bratislava, Slovakia, seamlessly blend heritage with modern workspace needs.

The space adopts a semi-open layout, with intimate areas defined by material choices of brick, steel, and wood, balancing openness with functional design.
