A Creative Haven in Riga: Inside the Designer's Library at Archideco Design Centre
Tucked away in the heart of Riga, the Designer's Library at the Archideco Design Centre is more than just a workspace—it's a sanctuary for interior designers, architects, and creators. A place where inspiration is abundant, and every material tells a story, this library is a home for anyone seeking to bring their design visions to life. The brainchild of Maximilian Andreev, the Creative Director of Maison Du Savoir, the Designer's Library is a reflection of his dedication to fostering creativity and elevating the design community.
"We wanted to create a space where designers could come and immerse themselves in an endless world of materials, textures, and ideas," Andreev says, sitting in the conference room of the library. "Archideco is not just a showroom or a place to pick up samples—it's a place to connect, to collaborate, and to create."
A World of Possibilities at Your Fingertips
The Designer's Library offers over 1,000 samples of materials from the world's most prestigious brands. These samples can be used to create mood boards that showcase everything from luxurious residential projects to cutting-edge commercial spaces. Designers are encouraged to work alongside their clients in this creative space, selecting materials, mixing textures, and envisioning the perfect environment.
"We wanted this to be a place where designers feel at home, where they can create alongside their clients," explains Maximilian. "The idea is to break down the formalities and make the process of designing interiors more interactive and personal."
Standing amidst the curated selection of materials, you immediately feel the thoughtfulness behind each choice. From sustainable options to innovative luxury finishes, the possibilities are endless. Whether you're looking to create a minimalist, modern interior or a richly decorated, traditional space, the Designer's Library is equipped to inspire and support every creative vision.
The Perfect Blend of Design and Technology
What sets the Designer's Library apart is not just its vast collection of samples but also the integration of technology into the design process. With a fully equipped conference room, designers can present their ideas professionally and dynamically. The space is designed to host client meetings, presentations, and collaborations, all in a comfortable and technologically advanced environment.
"We've thought about the entire experience," shares one of the team members at Archideco. "From offering technical services to providing a large TV screen for project presentations, we've created a space that allows designers to seamlessly transition from the creative phase to the client presentation phase."
The technological support available at the library allows designers to show their clients not just samples but fully realized concepts. With interactive mood boards, presentations, and the ability to connect digital tools, the Designer's Library ensures that every idea can be communicated clearly and compellingly.
A Community of Creators
The Designer's Library is not only a space to work and meet clients, but also a hub for networking and collaboration. Designers, architects, and other creatives from across Riga and beyond are welcome to use the space, exchange ideas, and build relationships.
"We see Archideco as a community," Andreev adds. "It's a place where designers can share their knowledge, learn from one another, and even work on collaborative projects. We've always believed that creativity thrives in a shared environment, and we wanted to foster that spirit here."
Throughout the year, the library hosts events, workshops, and exhibitions that bring together industry professionals to discuss trends, innovations, and creative solutions. These gatherings provide designers with valuable opportunities to connect with their peers, gain fresh perspectives, and stay at the forefront of the industry.
"We've seen incredible partnerships grow here," says one of the Archideco staff members. "Designers who met while using the library have gone on to collaborate on major projects. It's amazing to witness how much creativity flows when people come together in a space like this."
