By order of the Multispace team and its ideologist Sergey Kudryavtsev, the T+T Architects architectural bureau has developed and implemented a project to transform a former administrative building with obsolete facades into a hybrid multifunctional platform with deep integration of digital services.

“The art crater made of concrete in the roof of the building, through which natural sunlight enters the space, became a visual symbol of the rejection of office monoception. This element embodies a look into the future free from restrictions, a connection with the information universe.”

The basis of the interior is a monochrome range of gray tones. At the same time, each floor has its own local color accent.

“For people who prefer to work in a secluded environment, special “concentration zones” have been created, inside which the level of extraneous noise is minimized, and only those who share a love of business without unnecessary words are nearby.” Felt acoustic panels, Flyfelt.

“Multispace Paveletskaya is the most technologically advanced office space built around the ideology of a person, his comfortable environment and maximum efficiency,” say architects Sergey Trukhanov, Anastasia Abasheva, Polina Voevodina, Olga Rubleva.

“The main feature of filling Multispace premises is that the physical space merges with the digital environment, functioning as a self-learning neural network. The concept literally transcends the Agile philosophy, making the space not just flexible, but alive.”

“Classic offices with a cabinet layout or monotonous openspace no longer allow us to provide the productivity and quality of the environment that a variable space with a flexible set of functions generates,” the architects are sure.

“There is no direct typology of the head’s office in the whole building, and all the rooms serve as meeting rooms for the period of absence of top managers, which allows to significantly increase the efficiency of the areas.”

Instead of the usual reception desk, an informal welcome area with a cafe has been created here, where guests are greeted by a barista. Landscaping — Florista Green Design. Sofas, Unital. Chairs, Noti. Concrete table-prism, La Redoute.

“Multispace does not bind a person to workplaces, it gives easy access to remote services, allowing you to work, communicate and relax in almost any convenient place without having to leave the building. There are no visible boundaries inside the various zones, which creates an atmosphere of empathy and comfort.”

“Covering the space with a Face ID-based facial recognition system serves as a pillar of security for residents and an additional service for Multispace staff, thanks to which each guest and resident receives an individual approach. So, for example, the barista’s computer will remember what kind of coffee you like, and the next time you will be served it at a meeting, with exactly the right amount of cinnamon or syrup.”
