Interior design firm Holloway Li reimagines the Mother London office space in Shoreditch, London. The advertising agency taps the help of the firm as it decorates the workspace with bespoke furniture and celebrates a 70s theme. This choice enhances the industrial space with the overarching focus of forming a flexible and multi-functional working environment. The ground floor and mezzanine of the office are reconfigured and it now hosts an open-plan kitchen, seating space, and dining area with a new reception space.
Project design Ivy Aris speaks to Dezeen, stating "Whilst celebrating the brand's distinct and eclectic character, we wanted to reinvigorate the space with a new material palette, in keeping with the furniture's precursors so there was a retained sense of familiarity for the pre-existing environment. Our approach sought to not only elevate the multi-purpose functionality of the building as both an office and a hospitality setting, but also to develop methods of production with our close collaborators UMA and CraftWorks."
