Studio ANTIPOD's Tenderly Office Boasts Japanese Design Accents

Studio ANTIPOD recently unveiled its design for an engaging and playful contemporary office. Dubbed the 'Tenderly Office,' this workspace is located in the "newly opened GTC building" in Belgrade.

The floorplan of the playful contemporary office takes up three floors and over 3,000 square meters. Studio ANTIPOD aimed to set the design of this project apart from other contemporary workspaces and in order to do so, the firm chose to combine Japanese aesthetics and the whimsicality of building blocks. Inspired by simplicity and harmony, the space reflects the calm essence of Japanese culture through grids, calming tones, natural materials, and abundant greenery. Simultaneously, the office embraces the playful nature of building blocks, energizing the interior with vibrant colors, dynamic configurations, and playful shapes. Lush green plants throughout enhance the biophilic atmosphere while improving air quality and productivity.
