Kismet Chestnut Hill
As you enter into the main space of Kismet cowork you are presented with a reception desk positioned in front of a massive old fire door. The door had been swung 90 degrees from the wall it once hung. The desk itself is a collection of light boxes, the panels being salvaged from exterior partitions from the Philadelphian, a condo structure adjacent to the Philadelphia Art Museum. The desks top is made from the same re-milled reclaimed yellow pine beams that are used as all desk surfaces throughout space along.
Phone Booths
Built to precisely occupy the space allocated, these 2 phone booths mirror each other. With the design prompt of Cigar lounge provided by the client, Weston and team created a complete vignette into such a space. Creating red velvet upholstered sound batting and paneled wainscoting along with careful selection of chair and lighting allotted such a task to be accomplished. Built fully off site was installed in a day these phone booths provide privacy for many in this open floor plan Coworking office.
