Gazeta.ru is one of the oldest news agencies in Russia.Owned by a large media holding Rambler&Co, the editorial office of Gazeta.ru was relocated to Danilovskaya Manufactura, a 19th century former manufacture building, to join other subdivisions of the media group. Business goal.The challenge was to create a comfortable and multifunctional work space for a journalists' team that included areas for different activities - zones for concentrated work along with various meeting and social spaces.

The editorial office of Gazeta.ru occupies the third and the fourth floors of a 4-storey building. Office accommodation comprises workspace areas for individuals and teams, meeting rooms, lounge-zones, mini coffee points as well as a kitchen-dining-room located on the 4th mansard floor.

Besides, employees can use a multifunctional hall equipped with most modern audio-visual equipment for conferences,lectures, meetings and presentations.Formally, the hall belongs to Chempionat.com – another subdivision of the media holding Rambler&Co - but both teams have it at their disposal.

The whole publication process is very fast so the speed of communications between different departments is extremely important.That`s why working desks are placed in an open space. The chief editor`s and his assistants`cabinets are located right in the middle of the editorial office for the convenience of communications and information transfer with all the departments of the news agency.

The portal`sreports cover a wide rangeof news:politics, style, auto news. Architects decided to show the scope of information the agency reported using only one color- White. Graphic black accents on the floors and windows create an image of a newspaper page or an information web-site.

The interior is made up mostly with custom furniture produced in local workshops according to the architects` sketches.
