INTERIOR DESIGN PROJECT FOR NIDO STUDENT. CURRENTLY IN DEVELOPMENT
A Designer at Heart is in charge of the design of communal areas & bedrooms for a student accommodation in Berlin, Germany. The scheme will handover in 2021.
For this reason, we designed bespoke fire-rated reception desk and benches. We especially researched applicable materials and finishes by also following the guidelines and suggestions of our suppliers. Throughout our interior we injected the Nido happy and welcoming personality through colour-blocking, signage (LED neon-effect signs and bespoke wall vinyl décor developed together with the Nido marketing team) and a mix of selected loose and bespoke furniture in proper style. Finally, despite the space being small, we managed to fit a small kitchenette/server area within the lounge, a TV lounge, a football table, 2 study rooms and a wellness nook.
The Clay Studios project consisted in the refurbishment of an existing Student Accommodation. A Designer at Heart developed the interior design for Entrance and Communal areas covering around 164 sqm in total and 32 different layouts of bedrooms. Being an old Student Accommodation, our objective was to give it the personality it lacked and make it fresh and young. To achieve this, we used colour-blocking, pastel tones, round shapes, and curves mixed with different geometries and black accents. Once again, as for the other projects developed in Germany, we had to make sure to abide by all the strict safety and fire-proofing regulations that limited our options for material choices. We then used metal and stone or generally non-flammable materials.
