Local design firm Daniel Boddam Studio transforms an old warehouse in Australia to become an office workspace for landscape design company Wyer & Co. It highlights themes of nature by bringing greenery and natural materials into the workspace.
At the entrance, there are large green plants that are added to hide the dark steel doors and soften the red brick industrial warehouse. The front foyer invites natural light from the skylight and also reflects the entrance garden and its tones. Daniel Boddam, the founder of the studio notes "I saw the project as an extension of Wyer & Co's desire to bring in nature. Sustainability was discussed with the client from the outset and informed every aspect of the design – from materials and furniture to services and staff amenities."
