Utilitarian Monochrome workspace for creatives.

Located in Mexico City, HOOD, a dynamic creative agency led by co-founders Antonio Zarazua and Alejandro Hernández, needed a new home for their creative team. The vision was to create a workspace that blended utilitarian functionality with inspiration from a speakeasy, featuring elements such as a hidden entrance and dim lighting. The space needed to embody the essence of their brand while providing a versatile environment for collaboration and creativity.

The concept unfolds as visitors step into a dark vestibule with a display and a hidden entrance, setting the stage for what lies beyond. Here, contrasts abound, with utilitarian finishes serving as a canvas to showcase the character of HOOD's work. Raw materials and monochrome palettes dominate, creating a sense of understated elegance and intrigue.

Inside the workspace, users can experience bespoke lighting fixtures and branded accents; each element contributes to the immersive atmosphere, inviting visitors to explore and engage.

Drawing inspiration from retail storefronts and photo studios, the HOOD office space is a testament to the power of thoughtful design in shaping the way we work and interact. Here, every corner provides a canvas for creativity and innovation.
