Onde
The new open and modular office
“My inspiration was to connect the idea of making a modular sofa and allow it to develop flexibly.
The main idea came from looking at how the outdoor furniture market is changing and how people use outdoor furniture, while trying to understand GANDIABLASCO’s core ideas and the work being done at the company. It is a collection that, in addition to being designed for outdoors, fits easily with interior decoration.”

A series of modular furniture that has grown according to the postulate that originated it: the will to challenge the limits between outdoor and indoor. Even in workspaces, transformed into flexible places that adapt to new trends, needs and habits in the professional field. This includes workspaces, transformed into flexible settings that adapt to new trends, needs, and habits in the professional sphere.
