CRAFTING PEOPLE-CENTRIC WORK ENVIRONMENTS

A prime example of Pedrali’s furniture solutions, creating workspaces that feel like cultural hubs rather than corporate offices, is the L’Oréal headquarters in Milan, designed by DEGW – Lombardini22. Here, the furniture helps create an environment with a strong sense of hospitality and comfort, inspired by the concept of feeling home. Flexible workstations and open spaces are furnished with elegant seating from the Nym collection by Cazzaniga Mandelli Pagliarulo, while Babila barstools by Odo Fioravanti and Héra armchairs by Patrick Jouin contribute to a warm, inviting atmosphere. This approach extends to the outdoor areas, where Tribeca chairs by Mandelli Pagliarulo and Reva Twist sofas by Patrick Jouin transform panoramic terraces into dynamic open-air lounges.

Beyond aesthetics, Pedrali’s furniture is engineered for modern work needs, like collaboration and privacy. At the Scalapay headquarters in Milan, the Buddyhub system offers a perfect solution for acoustic comfort, creating an isolated, sound-absorbing niche for focused work or informal meetings within a larger open plan. Pedrali also extends its expertise to the outdoors, recognizing that open-air spaces are now an integral part of the office. On the terrace of La Maison Brevo in Paris, the Buddy Oasi collection by Busetti Garuti Redaelli with its movable backrest and waterproof lining creates versatile open-air workstations and social areas, while the Reva Cocoon lounge seats provide freedom of use and a striking, woven rope design for a touch of natural elegance.

This focus on adaptability and modularity is also evident in projects for global tech giants. In the Sauvage TV offices in Barcelona, the modular Social seating system by Patrick Jouin and minimalist Toa tables by Robin Rizzini

are used to create flexible social and meeting areas. Similarly, at the PayPal offices in Mexico City, Ila lounge armchairs by Patrick Jouin, and Nemea chairs by Cazzaniga Mandelli Pagliarulo are paired with large Arki-Tables to facilitate collaborative moments and informal meetings. Through these diverse projects, Pedrali demonstrates a consistent ability to create dynamic, welcoming spaces that are a perfect reflection of a modern, people-centric work culture.
