Abstract

The article focuses on the legacy of The Wing, a women's co-working space that closed in August 2022, and how its former director of interiors, Laetitia Gorra, is now helping companies design appealing workspaces. Gorra, who co-founded ROARKE Design Studio, emphasizes creating environments that balance productivity with social interaction, drawing inspiration from her work at The Wing. Her design approach includes open-concept offices and thematic elements that reflect a company's brand, as seen in projects for clients like cereal brand Magic Spoon and tech company Trail of Bits. The article highlights the ongoing influence of The Wing's design philosophy in the evolving landscape of corporate office spaces. [Extracted from the article]
