The assignment is to develop architectural interiors for New Investment Banking Citi Bank-Edwards, located on floors 1 and 2 of Building 500 El Bosque.
The proposal seeks to implement two projects in a new corporate image, with fine materials such as wood and travertine marble and granite taken prominence. Wanted to give the indoor warmth of natural lighting, creating a vertical permeability of the parameters through the perimeter spaces without losing the intimacy that requires each of these precincts.
Private Banking has a more traditional approach, the wood going to take a role in its materiality, is still looking for the transparency of the surrounding precincts, but in a more subtle, resulting in greater privacy in them.
The distribution center is a larger scale, indirect lighting creates a feeling of privacy requested by the user. Outwards wood blinds are available for control of mania and solar light and mix with the facade on the first floor, giving a unity to the project.
