The designer transformed the studio's [open-plan office](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mislad) into a "comfortable, functional working place that conveys the essence of the brand to its visitors". For this design, Gibson explored client needs and was drawn to their fascination with vintage cameras, an object that served as the main inspiration for this [modern office space](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kinzo-architekten). The office's design "alludes to historic photography and film apparatus and refers to camera lenses, glass, mirrors and diaphragms through its interior details". The Compulsive Productions office space by Matt Gibson is located Melbourne and offers graphic, post-production and audio-mixing services for the film industry. In addition to these services, the studio now features an [in-house creative agency](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mothers-la-headquarters) that specializes in advertising. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.7/10 - Popularity: 33% | Activity: 10% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Vintage-photography-inspired Design:** There is an opportunity for designers to incorporate vintage photography elements into modern workspaces to create a unique and visually appealing environment. - **Personalized Office Spaces:** There is a trend towards designing customized office spaces that reflect the brand and interests of the company to create a more comfortable and inspiring working environment. - **In-house Creative Agencies:** More film production studios are expanding their services to include in-house creative agencies to provide a more comprehensive range of services to clients. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Interior Design:** The interior design industry can take inspiration from vintage photography to create unique visual elements for modern workspaces. - **Film Production:** Film production studios can offer additional services such as in-house creative agencies to increase client satisfaction and revenue opportunities. - **Advertising:** The advertising industry can benefit from the expansion of in-house creative agencies in film production studios as an additional resource for creative work. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Studio-Workshop Offices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/banda-agency-kyiv.md) - [Californian Modern Office Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/day-job.md) - [Colorful Creative Workspaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/podimo-office.md) - [Cohesive Modern Workspace Studios](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unorthodox-designs.md) - [Art Deco-Themed Film Headquarters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sandbox-film.md) - [Modern Heritage Workspaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/norton-folgate-offices.md) - [Music Industry Creative Offices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/22re.md) - [Californian-Inspired Office Space](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/maximum-effort.md) - [Farm-Inspired Office Spaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/black-barn-1.md)
