Oficinas Inprocess
Backlit corporeal lettering
Signage has become a key element in the design of commercial offices, which in addition to providing functionality, by marking the different areas, offices and zones in detail, adds a dose of creativity and design that complements the project and multiplies brand awareness, as we can see in this backlit corporeal sign, designed and manufactured by our studio, with PVC letters, in the company’s corporate colors.
The office entrance offers a welcoming space, with a counter to present the company as soon as you come in. This unique piece, which combines a front made of different sized wooden slats lacquered in matt black with a vinyl in orange tones, was custom-designed by our team of professionals, together with the wall panelling and the cupboard that hides the installations and RAC.
In the hall we also designed a splendid sofa area, consisting of a 3-seater divider sofa by Ofimatic, created to ensure a comfortable waiting area for visitors. The wallpaper used for this seating area is a design by Élitis.
Today we bring you one of our latest projects: the corporate office design for Inprocess, a company that offers engineering services for the petrochemical industry in Barcelona.
The company presented us with a large open-plan space to accommodate around fifty people, and we got down to work to create some dream workspaces. To do so, we looked for the best modern and creative office decoration.
Would you know where to start if you were faced with a more than 500 m2 workspace? The truth is that the interior design of spaces this size is a real challenge.
For this type of project it is necessary to create comfortable and functional environments for many people, while at the same time designing modern and pleasant offices. In fact, throughout our career, we have already faced the office design and decoration, such as our projects for Sogesa or Engel & Völkers in Barcelona.
Given this is a company focused on the energy sector, the inspiration when it came to choosing materials and colours was simple, so we opted for black and grey tones, which are so reminiscent of coal.
In fact, this material is the energy source par excellence throughout history, and that is why this small tribute was made to it.
In addition, we also opted for the implementation of orange tones, this being a warm, lively and energetic colour, used in elements such as the orange Alterra carpet that covers much of the office floor or the applied vinyls on the various partitions that separate the spaces, designed by Molins Design. This chromatic range or colour palette also combines perfectly with the company typology, generating a work environment full of vitality.
Providing good meeting room design was one of the main objectives in this interior design project for the Inprocess corporate spaces.
The rooms layout helps to create a much more pleasant office design for workers and for possible visits that may take place in the company. Therefore, our proposal for this company placed the management rooms in the building’s southern area, offering natural light throughout the day, as well as creating a second private visitor area, which becomes the ideal place to hold meetings in an intimate way and with optimal lighting.
In this management office we added a graphite-coloured round table by BNB, together with swivel chairs by Ofiprix, a low cupboard by Ofimatic and a Linda floor lamp by Faro.
As we mentioned, at Inprocess it was essential to offer a space in which to make presentations both internally and externally, so a correct acoustic insulation becomes an essential element to offer the best attention during presentations.
To achieve this, we custom designed orange special methacrylate screens for offices, as dividing elements that combine with the company’s corporate colours and at the same time favour natural light entry into the offices.

The use of moodboards and presentations were of great help in determining the selection of the implemented design furniture. At all times the harmony between the different office furniture is present in tables, materials and colours, which combine perfectly in each office room.
In the meeting rooms, the general ambiences are separated thanks to the placed vinyls, which follow the rhythmic form of the overall space’s architecture, combining the corporate colours -black and orange-, to separate, hide and favour the passage of natural light.
For these meeting areas, we chose a blue-black carpet by Alterra, rectangular meeting tables and wheeled chairs by Dynamobel and black Vía hanging lamps by Faro for the larger room.
Bench desks are a safe bet for corporate office and interior design. They facilitate workers rotation and help to maintain a safe distance between those present in the workspaces. In addition, such office furniture encourages new working dynamics that are highly conducive to the working environment.
The click-desks with portal legs, folding metallic cover and black anti-fingerprint tabletops are from Dynamobel, as well as the ergonomic swivel chairs from the same company.
The installed lighting in the Inprocess corporate office design is based on a decontextualised concept of the company’s day-to-day work.
For bathroom design we chose orange Pavigrés floor and wall tiles, on which we installed a wall-mounted bathroom unit, Kyrya worktop and mirrors, Roca countertop washbasins and GRB Mixers mixer taps.
In addition, to keep order in perfect conditions and make it easier for the cleaning team, we custom designed a cleaning cupboard with a hinged door, equipped with bars and shelves in its interior.
Finally, to provide private storage space for the company’s employees, we added lockers with hinged doors, metal roof, flush metal back and combination lock.
