At first glance, the corporate offices
of the Taiza fashion brand don't look much different from any
standard office setting. According to firm director Jana Fialová,
however, great attention is paid to the core of the fashion house,
and in particular to the designers' studio, which eloquently
reflects the creative nature of their work.

"The studio is perfect for me to work and think in,
because in an interesting, pleasantly free style it is
a combination of a studio and an apartment," says
Katerina Baloun, a Taiza designer."
|

"The models make changes in this cozy booth, which
also serves as a handy catch-all."
|

"The efficiently equipped kitchen on the same floor
as the studio ensures maximal convenience for the designers."

Sufficient space is important to designer Katerina Baloun,
so she likes a two-floor option.

"After I began working for Taiza last year I had my
office and other spaces modified so that everything would
have a purpose and be functional. Above all, I need a large
desk to work on, as I like being surrounded by piles of
papers."
|

"The fashion house's environment features many inspiring details."
|
 " It's a world of high
creativity, where human dreams are conjoined with the cleverness
of each employee and his or her perception of the world," says
Jana Fialová. |

"The studio is also used as a showroom for clients, so we saw to it that
the environment would be pleasant and presentable."
