This was a question of redesigning the great transactions hall of a traditional bank so as to adapt it to work space in a contemporary private bank. 

The challenge was for the 9 metre high rectangular space and the 5.5 metre high lateral areas to meet the conditions of light, acoustics and comfort necessary for an activity both personal and confidential.

Direct and indirect lighting at different levels allowed the different spheres to be determined which, together with wood panels and carpets in the corporate colours, reached the proposed target.
