Design is undoubtedly the driving force behind Sentul East’s attention-arresting d2. Clad in core-ten steel, the unique façade of this unique urban office space jostles for attention as its modernist lines and powerful structure make it a standout in heritage- and culture-rich Sentul. Individual blocks are linked by terraces, courtyards and feature staircases, all of which are testament to Iroje Architects and Planners’ Korean brand of creativity. Although industrial in look and feel, there is room also for the healing and inspiring touch of nature, with ample spaces in which to breathe freely as well as restful nooks, thoughtfully placed by tranquil water features. With a patina that changes with time and a finish design analysts like to term as ‘distressed’, you’d find yourself feeling anything but when ensconced in d2’s uniquely creative embrace.
