A new workspace has been created for Courier Media, the media brand dedicated to a new generation of entrepreneurs, providing tools, skills and stories of innovative small businesses from around the world. The design of the interior spaces at their Hackney HQ is based on this playful contradiction, creating experiences that balance public and private, as well as homely and professional – using a combination of raw and refined finishes. Courier are storytellers. Therefore, the zoning and design of the space was designed to reveal the process behind telling Courier’s stories.
Wherever possible, SODA used renewable or renewed materials such as wood, Tretford carpet (goats hair) and Foresso (surface made of recycled timber chips and therefore low carbon) and also managed to repurpose the raised access floor from another building.
