As far as the décor goes, the building's original, textural construction materials are highlighted and brought to the forefront seen in the exposed red brick walls and concrete ceilings as well as the pipes and beams running along them. Meanwhile, the floor has been covered in a shiny, light gray epoxy paint that adds an unexpected touch of subtle polish to the interiors. Glass also features prominently, not just on the bare window frames pointing but also as dividers between corridors and laid over "windows" in walls which frame peek-a-boo views of other sections of the building, such as the entrance area.

Furniture is also used for delineating spaces, evidenced in the large, open bookshelf that forms the see-through "wall" between the main, conference room/office and the corridor, as well as another two large bookshelves between the main office and the two, slightly more private, meeting rooms. And within the meeting rooms, comfortable pieces of furniture - think large, sectional sofas and armchairs so enveloping they aren't easy to pull oneself out from - encourage office workers’ cooperation during break times as well as while they work.
In fact, the only rooms in the entire office that have a stark and utilitarian feeling are the white-painted, brick walled and linoleum floored restrooms. With that being said, even in here there are quirky touches that add a sense of warmth, such as the "Hollywood" style dressing mirror surrounded by round light bulbs or the large, deep double sink.
In conclusion, the FlaHalo office space offers a unique example of how detailed, thoughtful design benefits all renovation spaces if struck by the ideal cord of form and function, in combination with a deep felt respect for the building's past while building on its potentials.
