Wallpaper* Workspace: our vision for modern office design
With Howick Place in London as our host, we imagined a new environment that recognises and rewards this commitment of time and energy
Many of us are lucky enough to enjoy working lives that fulfil essential needs, feed our curiosity, challenge, engage and ignite, and sustain our passions (however much torrential e-mails threaten to dampen our spirits). The Wallpaper* Workspace celebrates our happy communion of the personal and the professional. With Howick Place in London as our host, we imagined a new environment that recognises and rewards this commitment of time and energy. Built by architect Adam Khan and styled by our very own interiors editors Benjamin Kempton and Amy Heffernan, these workspaces are at once lounge and library, private space and public space. Watch the video and take a tour around the ultimate Wallpaper* office.
