We were invited to participate in an international design competition for the interiors of a new office building for the Serbian company Delta Holdings. Our designs focused on the ground floor entrance lobby, the office floors, and the chairman’s penthouse office.

The lobby design features a sinuous bronze mesh that creates an iconic architectural gesture—a metaphor of the Sava and Danube Rivers. In counterpoint to the fluidity of the bronze railings and parapet walls, the full-height marble wall serves as the focal point to display large-scale art. At the perimeter of the space, the mirrored and translucent light “columns” change the impact of the glass curtain wall at the street while their oval forms recall the fins on the exterior of the building.

Thirty-centimeter-deep bronze “portals” lead to the sanctuary-like chairman’s office. Here, each magnificent panoramic city view is framed by bronze surrounds. A silver, grey and green palette reflects the colors of nature.
