Show us where you work - inside the advertising agency

CR is devoting the whole of the November issue of CR to looking at the creative workplace and on life in the studio or agency...

CR wants to find out about where you work, what your studio or creative workplace is like, even what the view outside your window is. So if you're a designer in a studio, or you work in an agency, if you're a creative working on your own, we want to see what your space looks like.

I work at Duval Guillaume, but you knew that of course. Duval Guillaume is based in an old factory. The building was completely renewed by Jo Crepain, a respected Belgian architect who unfortunately passed away in december (2008).

The postal adress of the agency is Antwerpselaan 40, B-1000 Brussels most people enter the building via the front porch on that adres. But that entry is actually the backdoor. Jo integrated the large manor house on the back of the factory when the factory got re-opened. Because the old large manor house houses the reception desk, visitors get a warm welcome. A cosy but chique Jori treats waiting visitors well.

When visitors actually enter the working ground of the agency going passed the receptiondesk they are confronted with the enormous majesty of open space. Most people intuitively look up to see the grandeur of a huge glass bricks roof symbolising the importance of a Team. The roof would collapse if ever 1 brick would break.
