Air France - KLM | Progetto Design & Build

Neutral shades and natural materials alternate with accents of green - chromatic and vegetable - in the new Milanese headquarters of the French-Dutch group AIR France - KLM.

Carried out by Progetto Design & Build based on the design concept of Progetto CMR, the new space welcomes visitors in a reception area with back-painted glass surface walls and a particular structure made of wooden lamellae. Such sculptural element serves as a scenic backdrop behind the monolithic white cristal block of the counter, and wants to invoke the shape of a glider in reference to the idea of lightness and freedom associated to the concept of fliying. Similarly, the pieces of furniture in the waiting area have a gentle structure and are designed with warm tones, as to ensure both the comfort and the visual appeal of the whole environment.

The space, characterized by the warm tones of beige, white and green, is highlighted by a series of plant elements hanging from the ceiling or arranged between workstations. This gives the space an intimate and comfortable atmosphere while the wooden elements warm the environment, contrasting with the purity of white and green tones to favor a greater sense of well-being and perception.
