Design Details

Unique Properties
This 76-sqm workplace not only serves clients as a consultancy, but also advocates multicultural crafts and classics. The color black, seen from the tiled flooring at the porch, implies a symbol of water in Chinese Wu Xing philosophy, detaching this workplace from the hustle-bustle concrete jungle, and allowing scenery and tranquility to slither into the indoors.
Inspiration
A pool of sunlight shines through treetops and the window façade, abundant lights and shadows layering a serene and poetic landscape. Being a workspace of interior design and aiming to serve multiple functions, this office showcases both professional public persona and stylistic aesthetics. Breaking down and borrowing the forms of Chinese Ming dynasty armchair, squares and circles recompose this spatial formation.
Research
Mingle crosscultural indications in harmony. For example, the western moulding frame hung on the ink textured oriental burgundy backdrops, inheriting the core of the design team’s appreciation upon cultural assemblages.
Challenge
To provide a balance between aesthetics and pragmatics in a small scale workplace. The compact coffee station immerses beneath the wild grassland wallpaper and handmade ceramic tiling, which assuring that no liminal space is unused.
Realization and Technology
This place was an idle office for years. Demolished the least to the existing structure, and use readymade materials to minimize wastes and respond to the awareness of sustainability. Meanwhile, visually is subtly enhanced between Chinese traditional carving crafts of yin seals and yang seals on wood panels.
Operation and Interaction
Clearly subdivide the layout into three sections: a conference room, a supervisor office, and an open workplace. A bountiful greenery of lush plants outdoors pairs with the oriental peacock vitality in the conference room. Spare most rooms for the design team, which retains the flexibility for daily tasks and hosting occasional interdisciplinary events. The supervisor office boldly uses a deep green-and-red palette to set off a profound oriental connotation of "calligraphy into painting".
Project Duration and Location
Completed in August 2022, located in Taipei city, Taiwan
