La Fuente Offices

2011 |Santiago, Chile

La Fuente promotes and implements educational and cultural initiatives that benefit, in large part, low-income and impoverished areas of Chile. This institution designs projects around books and reading, with an emphasis on the creation of libraries and cultural centers.

For its offices, we sought to create atmospheres that would creatively and subtly transmit what it is that La Fuente does. Through the presence of different formats of typography, pages of old books, and other objects related to writing, we managed to reflect the spirit behind the work they do ā€” taking reading to communities in a personal, open, and dynamic way. The use of wood and energetic colors was fundamental in this project.

ā€œUsing discarded books, we created actual wallpapers that cover some walls. On one of them, we installed an antique typewriter.ā€
