About G and B Multifunctional Workplace
G and B is a multifunctional workplace interior located in a boutique office building in New Taipei city, Taiwan. The space covers about 100 square meters. The layout is divided into four areas: a supervisor office, an open meeting area, a private meeting area, and a lounge for hosting events. Walls are reduced to a minimum, and glass screens separate the areas. Black marble covers the floor and continues onto the walls. Titanium panels and wood veneer form the ceilings. Curved transparent cubicles make the rooms appear more spacious.

- Production Technology
- Probing into the materials: the titanium paneling on meeting room ceilings give a rational statement, whereas the wood-veneered ceiling above the open lounge sustains a carefree vibe. The combination between wall-to-ceiling materials is cohere. The balance of rationality and reassuring ambiances influence both moods and behaviors of people, culminating with a synthesis of workplace and guesthouse for socializing.
- Design Challenge
- With less than 100 square meter, how to utilize different sizes of meeting and to maintain spacious movement became arduous. The layout is thus planned out into 4 sections for different purposes: a supervisor office, an open meeting area, a private meeting area, and a lounge space for hosting events, without cluttered feeling.

- Inspiration
- This project is situated in a boutique office building at the fast-growing redevelopment zone of New Taipei city. As a hidden gem and multi-functional hub in concrete jungles, the plan complies with spatial utility, regarding both privacy and intimacy, artistic and pragmatic mingling with oriental undertones. Black, seen from the flooring massively paved in marbles, is a symbol of water in Chinese Wu-Xing philosophy, which brings flows of universe energy and gathers fortunes. Flows of marble veins permeate philosophical connotations throughout spaces.
- Project Duration
- Complete in December 2020, located in New Taipei city, Taiwan
- Operation Flow
- To maximize the use of space, the layout excludes walls as possible. The flooring color segments the front section and inner areas; afterwards, the glass screen subdivides the space into office, meeting room, and open-concept lounge, blurring boundaries between areas. While marbles and wood-veneerings are successively paved from flooring to elevation, entrance screens are swivel and directionally changeable, mingling with materials of glass, metals, stones, woods, and forms of arc. The metal band implies a direction, leading to needed areas.
