BLOCK D – RAIN Interior Concept After a restructuring and re-branding to launch SA ’ s first mobile data-only network , Rain ( formerly iBurst ) needed a fresh new look for their new premises in Bryanston . Interior Designers , Pyramid Office were responsible for the interior design .
A client with an evocative name like RAIN is a real gift to a designer . Watery words like ‘ spilling ’, ‘ leaking ’ and ‘ pooling ’ inspired the look and feel . The concept was built around design elements that subtly referenced water to create a space that became the client ’ s brand in built-form .
Furnishings with liquid lines , smudged watercolour carpet patterns , pendant light fittings reminiscent of rain drops and splash back tiles that shimmer like the surface of a pond are some of the main features in the space .
Space Planning Like many businesses , RAIN anticipates a good deal of change and growth as they respond to the market ’ s needs . Cellular offices were planned along the perimeter to ensure an unbroken area for open plan workspace . The planning allows for growth in the workforce by adding people and furniture , without demolishing any walls . 120 Degree workstations were used to create a modular , easy-tochange system .
Focus pods , small break away rooms and open plan collaboration areas complement the open plan workspace . Each level has a pause area where staff can have coffee and a casual meeting .
CONCLUSION On completion , The Main Straight stands as an icon along Main Road in Bryanston , boasting views from Midrand across to Sandton for its Blue-Chip tenants . The developers , together with their professional team , are proud of achieving an office development that offers premium space in a contemporary style , but yet still fits within the local space that Bryanston has to offer for its residents .
