Planning Partners By Lande Architects Issue 14 Feature The Local Project Image (10)

Commissioned by one of its residential clients, Lande Architects revitalised financial planning business Planning Partners’ workplace in the Melbourne suburb of Camberwell.

Having signed a lease extension, Planning Partners was interested in injecting new character into the office, and the Lande team, alongside graphic design studio Pidgeon Ward, uncovered the untapped potential of the space.

Rather than taking on multiple structural changes, the Lande team introduced new furnishings, fresh lighting and a rich material palette.

Rather than taking on multiple structural changes, the Lande team introduced new furnishings, fresh lighting and a rich material palette. These elements create a dynamic and vibrant shift in the atmosphere of the office. Together with leather and textured fabrics, dark shades of green, grey and brown feature heavily in the design to provide an enduring foundation for the interior pieces. A Chromatic rug by Halcyon Lake adds welcoming charm, while Atollo Grande lamps by Oluce offer both diffused and direct lighting for ambience. The Leeroy armchair by Jardan pitches the interior’s natural elegance against sleeker forms, such as joinery and furniture pieces, while the 12-seat Naylor table by Made Studio anchors the communal areas with purpose and poise.
