Urban Lime offices get a makeover

Sleek, modern offices

For a taste of New York in the Mother City, look no further than the fresh, sophisticated new offices of Urban Lime. Inhouse Brand Architects has unveiled a stylish redesign for the Cape Town branch of this international property management company. Inhouse has previously refurbished the upper floors and common areas throughout the same building and due to the success of this initial project, they were the inevitable choice to fulfil the client’s latest aspirations for the first and second floors. The client’s brief to Inhouse was to recreate the style of a luxurious New York corporate management office. It was important to steer away from the stark character of Urban Lime’s previous offices. They made the space more flexible by incorporating moveable furniture that could easily be adapted to accommodate groups of different sizes and introduced functional yet contemporary elements to reflect the operational nature of these offices. The selected design scheme called for the inclusion of a deep, dark palette to create an air of sophistication.

These elements were introduced via the wooden flooring, wall paneling and furniture used throughout.  The client has expressed delight at the completed design. Inhouse has made best use of the play of light and shadow to maximize the limited space available. Now, not only do Urban Lime’s staff members have a comfortable, contemporary workspace but the company’s client-facing zones and meeting areas successfully reflect the world-class development work that has established Urban Lime as a leader in the field.
