D3 Offices – São Paulo, Brazil
Design by Estudio Guto these new headquarters are the new Brazil office space of D3. D3 is a digital production company that helps publicity agencies created interactive experiences. The office is located in São Paulo, and it was important for the company, who is clearly in the creative industries, to have an office space which not only reflected their creativity but also nourished it.
“The rustic treatment of the basic structure is partially covered by the woodworks, carefully designed in order to create different visual effects …every corner of the space instigates the visitors’ eyes to different angles, textures, colors and lighting patterns. Three kinds of wood and different shades of blues, greens and purples were used for the chromatic identity of the space.”

Sustainable Digital Design – Denmark
ART+COM is a group of designers that specialise in creating spaces that integrate new media. They have taken what are usually abstract concepts, and brought them into reality at the digital media exhibition located in Volkswagen’s communications platform in Denmark. The pictures are from the area “Level Green: The Concept of Sustainability”, where visitors can learn about climate change and the various consequences it may have. J. Mayer H. designed the centre, his aim being to allow visitors to engage actively in gaining information not only about the concept, but also about how they can put such notions into play within their own day-to-day lives. Perhaps the most impressive features of this centre are the interactive media walls which encourage user interaction by giving access to data via playful touching.
