Confidential Tech: Brussels Zaventem

The fourth project with the same global technology client. Presenting another design concept was unnecessary: the relationship was established and the design capability proven. The studio presented the tool instead. A low-resolution site photograph, upscaled to 4K, with live options across carpet, partition systems, ceilings and finishes, individually or in combination. The approach suited this client's portfolio: a high proportion of refurbishment work, where design effort and budget must be directed precisely at the decisions that will actually move the project. The client asked whether this was proprietary software. The answer was yes, and that they had been the proving ground during its development. Their response reframed it: not a proving ground, but a research partnership. The tools inside i/o spark are built on live projects with real clients. This was the project that named that relationship explicitly.
