+ About 2RAM

2RAM – Ryszard Rychlicki & Agnieszka Nowak

Students of 5th year of Architecture and Town Planning at the University of Art in Poznan, Poland. From January 2008 to May 2010 we were co-authors, founders of the design group H3ar in which – apart from performing our individual projects – we collaborated on works for contests in Poland and abroad.

When H3ar split in June 2010, we established 2RAM which is based on our earlier collaboration related to contests.

+ Project 1

Project: Paul Kaloustian architect office
Location: Beirut, Lebanon
Area: 300m2

The new location of the office is in a former factory, in Beirut. The design intention is based on creating an airy and abstract space, using white as a unique color with repetitive fluorescent light on the parallel walls. The open space allows freedom and flexibility with lounges, work desks and a meeting room with lycra fabric as envelope. this experimental space features un-painted walls from the time of the factory, texts on parts of the walls, custom designed furniture and plants.

+ Project 2

Project: Chammas Chalet
Location: Faraya, Lebanon

The interior of the chalet is simple yet powerful due to the idea of the zigzag roof designed to give the space a sense of tension and dynamism.
