New Work, Berlin, 2014

Kinzo was entrusted with the task of giving the young online platform a spatial identity. The complete fit-out creates a built reality for a virtual community.

The sound wave "Hello, Welcome to Soundcldoud" was included in abstracted form as ceiling baffles.
A two-story atrium including a staircase was inserted between the two lower floors. In addition to their functional and work-atmosphere significance, acoustics are used as an identity-forming motif: e.g. as cladding for the pendant lights (“Krautleuchten”) specially designed for the project and as fixtures with perforated lockers backed with acoustic fleece.
