Bata Office Drawer Separating Finance and Records

Bright commercial skylight floods the open-plan office bay in Bata, illuminating rows of desks and glass partitions during the late morning rainy season. A wooden drawer stands open in the foreground, its compartments neatly divided by hardware dividers. Inside, stacks of paperwork are sorted into distinct piles: finance documents, records, and facilities forms. The white paper surfaces reflect the diffuse overhead light, creating soft highlights against the darker file folders. Outside the large windows, gray rain streaks blur the view of the city, against the sharp, organized lines of the workspace. A red pen rests atop a stack of reports near the drawer's edge, marking a specific point of work in progress.
