Automative Equipment Showroom, Rishon LeTsiyon

The office building includes two large showrooms, two office floors, a large dining room and training center. Setter Architects drew inspiration from the automotive world as well as Japanese motifs, such as natural and simple materials and colors with harmonious round shapes. At the entrance to the ground floor, there is a Japanese stone garden with a fish pond surrounding a large and impressive staircase, which connects the two showrooms.

A large custom-made light fixture, reminiscent of Koi fish, is suspended from the high ceiling of the upper floor. Behind the staircase is a three-dimensional delicate art piece that spreads over the height of the two showroom floors with images and depictions of animals from Japanese mythology. All of these elements gather and strengthen the center of the space and provide a special experience for the company’s guests and brand customers. The design of the sales desks, built from a combination of metal and wood, simulates the wheels of a moving car. The furniture next to them combines wood and straw nets, a design element common in the Far East. Acoustic elements in the form of flying birds accompany the floors and enhance the sense of height and spaciousness.
