Cinereach is a dynamic not-for-profit film production studio that supports filmmakers from all over the world through grants and fellowships. For its flagship office, Cinereach wanted something open, informal and inspired more by the vital atmosphere of an urban café than by a typical office environment. The 5,500 ft2 loft is designed to house the multi-programmatic elements of a high-tech media company. A platform on the lower level accommodates a diversity of functions: 2 editing bays, a conference space, a kitchen with seating and storage below. While the bamboo and steel platform acts as a knuckle to the space, a continuous 40 ft bent steel shelving system provides a functionally integrated storage system and work surface along the edge.
