22RE, the LA-based multidisciplinary practice for architecture and design, in collaboration with Madeline Denley of Never Far Studios, debut their new office for Ceremony of Roses, an artist merchandising and brand services company for top music creatives. Inspired by Californian and European modernism, the highly-considered offices in Culver City are designed to foster intimate creative sessions for musicians and their partners to conceive brand-defining expressions.

22RE and Never Far Studios were recruited to transform the vaulted 1950s factory into a modern office oasis, with moody color and lush materiality applied to create distinct realms within. At the entrance, visitors are greeted by a custom-fitted bench and welcome counter in white oak – both pieces are set on concrete flooring that marries the natural and industrial, a dichotomy explored throughout the sensuous interiors. The front desk is punctuated by a Ingo Maurer Lampampe lamp and florals to set the tone for the carefully considered office.

An enveloping huddle room is the first stop for visitors. Designed to invigorate conversations with some of the world’s most prominent musical artists, the space resembles a 70s sunken living room. Wall-to-wall carpeting and plush green mohair couches juxtapose cool walls lined with stainless steel paneling.

The room’s center features a sculptural 22RE aluminum coffee table, inspired by Oscar Niemeyer, overwhich a vintage Akari pendant lamp by Isamu Noguchi hangs, diffusing a glow that warms the room’s blues, grays and greens. The space’s soft and hard, warm and cold elements amplify the contrast of the warm wood and industrial materials that are apparent across the office interiors.
