Studio Tilt creates flexible interior for Proud Archivist cafe

Studio Tilt were challenged by events company Proud Galleries to design a flexible space that would accommodate both catering and exhibition functions. The venue is located in a new building that is part of a large scale development along London's Haggerston Basin, facing Regent's Canal. "How can you fit a bar, cafe, restaurant, library, gallery, events space and private hire space into a relatively small floor plate? The answer is effective programming of events and clear synergies across spatial zones," Studio Tilt creative director Oliver Marlow told Dezeen.

Phill by Nuca Studio

Recently completed by Romanian designers Nuca Studio, Phill houses its restaurant on the first floor, while a playground, multi-function hall and café occupy the ground level below. The elephant stands over the central staircase and appears to be listening to music from a painted-on mp3 player and headphones. Circular openings create colourfully framed views between rooms, allowing parents to keep an eye on their children. Other Dezeen stories featuring fun play areas include a series of sculptural trees for a high school and a house complete with slides and a ballpond. Photography is by Cosmin Dragomir.

Municipal government moves into OMA's De Rotterdam

Design firms Group A, Studio Makkink & Bey and Roukens + Van Gils were jointly responsible for the interior design of The Municipality of Rotterdam's new headquarters, spread over 33 floors in the central block of the skyscraper. The offices are organised so the 22nd-floor reception hall and the 21st-floor restaurant form the "city centre", while work spaces, meeting areas and concentration rooms spread across the building are coined as "neighbourhoods". The metaphor is extended to areas with specific purposes – such as conference rooms, lounge areas, quiet zones and service facilities – which are designed as the "city squares" and "parks". In the public area, the double-height space is split into two zones. Photography is by ScagliolaBrakkee. Project credits:
