Module in administrative offices:

When designing administrative buildings, you must rely on a model in the horizontal projection and in the facades and sectors, whether the building is brick, iron, aluminum, glass or reinforced concrete. Where the model that gives the best solution for the building on which the interior design is based is chosen, and this model depends on the area of the room, which can determine the number of workers in it and the type of work they do, and the dimensions are calculated so that natural lighting can be relied on in office lighting to a large extent.

Office rooms

The maximum depth of the office from the window should not exceed 6 meters and in special cases it can reach 7.5 meters.  The office space ranges from 24 to 40 square meters.
