Hi! I hope you are
doing well since my last post till now.
There's been so much
going on with me of late and one of them being another office renovation I am
working on here in Ghana, Accra. So, I thought what better than to let you guys see again how it's
done here, as if you recall, the last ‘Live renovation’ I did was done in
Nigeria, Lagos. Personally, I'm keen to see how the level of workmanship
differs here to there but already (still at the beginning stage), I'm noticing
a difference.
Ok, so let me
give you a quick insight into this project. It’s a property development company
and they need a Marketing Suite in their office, where they can take prospective clients and ‘wow’
them with current/up and coming projects. So keeping in mind the main objective
of the space as well as incorporating the company ethos/brand, this is the
design I have come up with.
Here is the existing plan of the room below:
The actual
room size is not the biggest but as a designer, you just have to look at ways
to utilise the space as best as possible. I first did an initial idea as to
what’s needed in the room and to help get a better flow of the space.

Then I put
myself in the shoes of the client as well as the marketer. How would I like to
show a prospective client about upcoming projects and also what would catch my
attention as a client? So I went on to answer these questions and I came up
with my final design below:

The room now
has a better design flow as it's now divided into smaller sections as it were. When a client walks in the first thing they are hit
with is the colour of red on the wall panel that has project illustrations on it
and then the physical model stand of project. Looking to their right (from the door), they will
see the straight wall partition with company name etc on it. As they move on
into the room they will now see the other wall illustrations and then end up in the curved TV area. This is where clients will now sit, be served refreshments
while watching the latest animation/video.
This is going
to be a quick, fun design project, so please stayed tuned for my next couple of posts on this, as we are going from design conception to construction. To make sure you don’t miss out join this blog, that way you get notified
