Text description provided by the architects. Objective: to design bright multifunctional space convenient for office work, visual for demonstration of interior elements, comfortable for lectures and prepossesing to communication at friendly meetings.

Concept: We departed from regular view on interior by getting free from complexes of horizontal floor-by floor project and placed complicated art object consisting of parallelepipeds into original empty space.

Internal colour of each parallelepiped depends on its function. You can intricately move between the functions. And the object itself zones initial space around.

Now new office-showroom of DK Project company is a bright point of design and communications in Artplay, it unites designers, architects and creative people who appreciate quality and are ready to share new ideas, collaborate and develop concepts of modern design.

Bulthaup Showroom TLV / Pitsou Kedem Architects

500 metre square showroom divided into 3 section, where on one side, designers sit in an open studio exposed to the showroom's visitors with, on the other side, there is a series of working kitchen islands for cooking classes to be held in the showroom. Thus the designer created an interesting and engaging dialogue and contrast between the company's accuracy and design restraints and the human factor that is involved in their design or use afterwards.

One internal facade of the space is constructed entirely from doors taken from the containers used to transport the kitchens for display. Through these entry to the service and storage area is facilitated. In effect, the display space is an expression of all stages in the process; The Kitchen Designer (the designer's studio), it's Construction (industrial materials), it's Shipment (container door) and it's use(the cookery school.

7.2 Customer's values, attitude and behaviour

Customer Review

•"Shaw Carpet is Great!"I have owned Shaw Carpet (Nylon) for about a year now in my room that I have renovated and I have to say that it is a very good carpet brand. Things that I really like about it are that it is very low maintenance so if you don't like cleaning then this is for you. You do not need to worry about it getting ripped and if something happens to spill on it; it is not hard to clean. Pretty much there is nothing that I dislike about it beside the price. If the price was a little bit lower I would have to say that it is perfect. I have never had to repair or replace it because it has been so great. I think I would buy the same brand again and I would also recommend it to a friend. Overall Shaw Carpet is very good and I have no real complaints about it yet. •Overall the customer is happy and satisfied with the carpet the they have brought over the years. •http://www.flooring.net/carpeting/reviews/shaw/7/

7.3 Basic needs in the new facility

Customer Review

"Carpets are a thing of the past"
I have owned a Shaw carpet for almost 2 years and I am generally dissatisfied with it. It does have advantages over a floor but they do not outweigh the disadvantages. I prefer it over my wood floor during the winter months as it is much warmer and softer. It is very attractive in appearance and also feels very comfortable when walking on it barefoot. The downside of owning it is that it completely pollutes my entire living room with dust and it holds an odor. I have never had it professionally cleans but have cleaned it myself with chemicals and a vacuum cleaner. Although I have cleaned it on multiple occasions I have not successfully been able to rid it of its dust holding ability. I would not recommend this to any friend because it would just create more dust in the air just from being walked on.

Overall the customer will need flooring like carpet tile and wood flooring which the Shaw Contract Group is producing over the years.
