About the project

The intervention in AON’s Porto office restructures the workplace through a spatial composition based on contrast and rhythm. The project redefines the internal organisation by introducing elements that regulate circulation, light and patterns of use.

A sequence of vertical glass louvers structures the main circulation and filters natural light across the plan. These translucent elements establish a layered field of transparency, organising movement and defining zones without rigid compartmentalisation.

In counterpoint, solid black volumes introduce density and spatial reference points within the open layout. The reception is articulated as a dark monolithic plane framing the corporate identity, while within the workspace enclosed meeting pods provide acoustic control and moments of concentration.

The project balances openness and containment, continuity and pause, creating a dynamic yet controlled workplace environment adapted to contemporary modes of collaboration.
