Transparency meets spatial quality
What happens when an architectural firm becomes its own client? In the case of m_architekten from Karlsruhe, this resulted in a work environment that is not only thoughtfully designed but also visibly demonstrates lived planning expertise. The redesign of their own office became an opportunity for Mattias Huismans and his team to combine their high design standards with the functional strengths of the feco partition wall system — a system they were already very familiar with from planning the new feco production hall.The location: a former retail space with expansive display windows facing Hirschstraße. Today, height-adjustable desks on Vitra bench-style frames offer modern workstations—flexibly usable for focused tasks and brief stand-up meetings. Toward the rear, a curved fecoplan all-glass wall acoustically separates the office of the firm’s founder from the meeting room. The zoning is complemented by fecowall solid walls with integrated fecoorga profiles, allowing for the flexible mounting of shelves, hooks, and pinnable felt elements—finished in an elegant anthracite tone that combines functionality with design appeal.
Materiality and color are used with precision: white surfaces reflect daylight, while deep graphite black with velvety matte finishes creates accents. Profiles and frames are finished in RAL 7021 black grey, while door fittings and the FSB handle are executed in RAL 9005 deep black. Carefully integrated heating pipes and cable ducts highlight the meticulous planning and execution. With this solution, m\_architekten has not only created an inspiring work environment but also made a strong statement—for future-oriented planning, excellent design, and the power of spaces to convey identity.
