Coordinated Furniture Delivery for a Mixed Commercial Interior in Istanbul

프로젝트 개요

Background

The project is located in a mixed commercial interior in Istanbul, where three functional zones — front-of-house waiting, staff working and corner rest areas — needed to be resolved on the same floor. By the time of delivery in 2018, the interior fit-out was largely complete, leaving a short window for furniture installation and adjustment. The selected products therefore had to match the existing environment quickly in terms of style, dimensions and maintenance.

Requirements and challenges

Consistent but not monotonous: The three zones are connected by circulation routes and needed to be linked by a single colour family, avoiding visual fragmentation between areas.
Durability under heavy use: The waiting and staff areas are occupied for long hours daily, so seat surfaces, armrests and tabletops had to offer better abrasion resistance and cleanability than standard office settings.
Dimensions suited to compact spaces: The corner rest area sits adjacent to a walkway, meaning furniture dimensions could not obstruct passage while still retaining adequate seat depth.

Specification and solution

Combination of 4 stock models: A waiting bench, single waiting chair, small round table and staff work table were configured by zone, avoiding the lead-time risk of custom pieces.
Consistent neutral palette throughout: Seat and tabletop surfaces used grey-brown and light beige tones, with dark grey powder-coated metal legs, transitioning naturally with the existing floor and wall finishes.
Easy-maintenance surface materials prioritised: Waiting area seating used stain-resistant upholstery, and tabletops used scratch-resistant finishes to support routine wiping and partial replacement by the operator.

Delivery and outcome

All 4 models arrived on schedule: Completed without disrupting concurrent fit-out work by other tenants on the floor.
Waiting area fitted with 6 seating units and 2 round tables: Accommodating approximately 12 people waiting at peak times, with a further 3 seating units in the corner rest area.
Staff area fitted with 4 work tables and 8 work chairs: Tabletops passed on-site load testing, with evenly distributed loads remaining stable above 60 kg per table without deformation.

Client feedback: The installation looked more orderly on site than expected, the colours worked well with the floor and walls, and after a week of use in the staff area nothing needed reworking.
