ARCHITECTURAL OUTDOOR SPACES FOR SOCIALISING, COLLABORATION AND CONCENTRATION
GANDIABLASCO introduces a new collection of PERGOLAS designed by José A. Gandía-Blasco Canales in collaboration with Gensler Product Design Consulting. Gensler is a global architecture and design firm wholly committed to sustainability and the power of design as a tool for transformation. It is a completely versatile concept, based on 3 sideways measurements, that allows for the configuration of an enormous variety of large and multi-purpose spaces, from shelters with ceilings which make outdoor living possible all year round, to work spaces ranging from collaborative meeting environments to areas for individual concentration.
As a result of the collaboration between the experts at Gensler and GANDIABLASCO, technology and design are dedicated to the user experience and create interconnectable, adaptable and flexible solutions that can be used in a variety of environments and weather conditions. The new PERGOLAS are customised and designed to meet the specific needs of each customer and environment, with a clear focus on the new trend of lounge-style workspaces. For this reason, the intention behind them is to play a part in the creation of flexible and efficient workplaces that can act as real catalysts for change, boosting the growth, well-being and creativity of the people who use them.
To fulfil this aim, the series includes elements that encourage socialisation and collaboration, such as rest areas and meeting points. The structure and the main components of the FLEX PERGOLAS designed by José A. Gandía-Blasco Canales in collaboration with Gensler Product Design Consulting are made of aluminium, a material that provides versatility, durability and resistance. The construction system that is used for the manufacture of the brand’s furniture is also used here; the patented technique for the manual assembly of the structures makes this particularly special. Moreover, the circular and square-shaped on the ceilings and exterior walls can be ordered in a wood-effect finish in addition to the standard powder-coated aluminium.
These new elegant and minimalist spaces can be customised with the new ceilings made of circular and square-shaped slats, as well as with exterior walls which can be solid, upholstered, made of fixed or pivoting board, deployé, or circular or square-shaped blades. Meanwhile the Soft Dolce fabrics used for the upholstered walls, available in 10 different colours, are suitable for use in any outdoor environment and their texture gives them a warm finish that is also very suitable for indoor spaces.
“This solution is versatile and can optimize and multi-purpose space as an elegant design solution. From a truly unique productivity pavilion for the workplace to a cozy shading structure for evening gatherings and celebrations.”
