Sarofsky’s gorgeous studio office space is nestled within a charming 19th century building

Architecture firm <a href="http://www.olsonkundigarchitects.com/" target="_blank">Olson Kundig Architects</a> designed a new studio space for the <a href="http://www.darnellworks.com/sarofsky/studio-a.htm" target="_blank">Sarofsky Corporation</a> by restoring a gorgeous 1880s building in Chicago. The company, which conceived the main titles for blockbusters such as ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ and ‘Captain America: The Winter Soldier,’ bought the old building and worked with Olson Kundig to conceive a stylish space that encourages collaboration.

Olson Kundig Architects’ design preserves the building’s charm while optimizing it in order to accommodate a contemporary workspace.

The owner of Sarofsky, known for her work in graphic design, motion pictures and TV industry, met with the Olson Kundig team.

She expressed her desire to preserve the essence of the old structure but restore it to a degree that allows for a sleek modern interior to be housed inside it.

The center of the space houses two screening rooms and a large, open work area lit by clerestory windows.

A series of open-plan offices can be closed off via gorgeous sliding steel doors.

The airy central space also includes a large server room, an open kitchen with a long table area similar to the company's previous space, and a reception area that doubles as a studio for filming and photography.
