- Design Challenge
- The main challenge is that both design and construction must be completed within the time limit requested by the client. Therefore, within a relatively limited two-month period, the design team continued to communicate with the client and did revision and adjustment. Based on this, the space layout and material performance can be successfully implemented, and the result exceeded the customer expectations.
- Research
- The working system must meet the special characteristic of dispatch and deployment at any time, so only three necessary compartments are private, and the remaining office seats are in open configuration. Flexible furniture configurations are used to support its emphasis on open communication and collaboration. At the same time, with the combination of low saturation and high contrast color combinations, and the image wallpaper, the theme of passion and vitality in the jungle of digital technology is shaped.
- Inspiration
- Dealing with the client from fin-tech service company, the designer gave the office a refreshing, rich and consistent color schemes and excellent onsite lighting conditions. Large-scale mural creations were used to enhance the aesthetics of the space and express the brand image with energy and vitality; an open configuration with no gap between the staffs provided a relaxing comfortable space scale, while meeting the needs of frequent discussions and communications of the teams.
- Project Duration
- The project finished in August, 2019 in Taipei City, Taiwan.
