Location: Quito, Ecuador
Year: 2018
Area: 306 sq.m.
Authors: Jorge Jarrín Coello, Francisco Cevallos Barragán
Collaborators: Yasin Lopez, Cristina Paredes

From the architect: The vision of the client concerning the architecture program required the creation of a versatile environment and open space for receiving the permanent and temporary workers (missionaries).
The Estudio 685's concept targeted to create for each of the working spaces an "idea box" with a unique identity and functional approach. These spaces would promote the interactivity for the type of work here developed. The new offices not only gather small environments but also allow to generate meeting spaces for group work.
All the offices have a direct view of the Andean landscape of the city of Quito and the construction details such as the laurel carpentry connect the user with the expression of the landscape. This is an stimulant, cozy, and flexible space where the compromise of the employees live together with the principles of transparency and professionality that this Organization represents.
