Gone are the days of fluorescent lights and uninspiring white walls. Nestled in the heart of Prague, the Foyer at Tusarova 31 redefines the concept of a social hall and creative workspace.

Initially a hearth space for relaxation, this modern reinterpretation offers a sanctuary for both short and long-term tasks. Designed by mar.s architects, the Foyer integrates industrial style with deep design elements, creating a calm atmosphere conducive to focused work and creativity.

The Foyer serves as the flagship showroom for the Marslab store concept. Here, functionality meets aesthetics in a space that doubles as a coworking hub, an event venue, and a photography studio. Each corner is meticulously crafted to fulfill multiple purposes, from product presentations to creative coworking meetings, making it a versatile haven for design enthusiasts and professionals alike.

The genius loci of the Foyer is evident in its thoughtful design and curated products. The space is a testament to the harmonious blend of contemporary Czech and international design. Every piece, from the furniture to the art, is carefully selected to create an inspiring and functional environment. The interior design focuses on maximum harmony between aesthetics and functionality, ensuring the space is beautiful and practical.

The centrepiece is a stunning light fixture by Jiří Krejčiřík suspended above a sophisticated communal table by Viccarbe, surrounded by plush chairs from the renowned Italian manufacturer Arrmet. This setup not only enhances the space's visual appeal but also provides a comfortable and stylish area for meetings and collaboration.

In the meeting room, the Arrmet Kiyumi collection takes center stage, complemented by an atypical light fixture by Jaroslav Chramosta. This combination of unique lighting and elegant seating creates an environment that is both professional and inviting, perfect for brainstorming sessions and client meetings.

The entrée features an installation with soft seating, including a sideboard and coffee tables from nozomi.furniture, and a cozy sofa and armchair from Comforty. This area is designed for relaxation and informal gatherings, offering a welcoming space for visitors and coworkers to unwind.

The Foyer is also interwoven with artistic objects from Kombo studio and paintings by Patrik Kriššák and Maxima Havlíček. These artworks add a layer of sophistication and creativity to the space, making it a workplace and a gallery of modern art and design.

The dual functionality of the Foyer as a coworking space and showroom is thoughtfully executed. It offers a dynamic environment where business meetings, creative collaborations, and product showcases coexist seamlessly. The space fosters productivity and innovation, making it a preferred destination for creative professionals.

The Marslab showroom concept emphasizes the curation of products from local designers and smaller European furniture manufacturers. This approach highlights the uniqueness and quality of each item, creating a distinctive shopping and working experience. The Foyer is more than just a showroom; it celebrates design, art, and creativity.

Located in the vibrant city of Prague, the Foyer showcases the city's rich cultural heritage and forward-thinking design community. It is a beacon of modern design, offering an inspiring space for work, relaxation, and creativity. The project, completed in 2023, spans 120 square meters, providing ample room for various activities and events.

The Foyer at Tusarova 31 blurs the boundaries between work and leisure, offering a unique experience for all who enter. Whether you're looking to collaborate with other creatives, host an event, or relax and enjoy the surroundings, the Foyer is the perfect destination.
