Design Details
- Unique Properties
- The Glowing Pavilion explores possibilities with space, constructing a seamless pathway for both the state of mind and business function areas. Designers captured the teahouse traits and details, reinterpreted the pavilion design as a center feature to create a visual linkage to each area and enabling smooth escorts of guests from the reception and lobby lounge to the pre-function lounge and conference room behind, simultaneously, it further serves as a division for these areas, while ensuring privacy.
- Inspiration
- Located in Shanghai Songjiang, it is the cultural root of Shanghai. Inspired by the Shanghai teahouse, designers introduced the Glowing Pavilion as the concept for the Segacn commercial office. The fascinating part of this commercial office design is that carries the historical traits and blend in the modernity of business functional space. This novelty design gets away from the classic look and bestows a touch of coolness and modernity to the corporate image.
- Research
- Applying the "Methodological Triangulation" to increase the accuracy of design findings generating from Literature review, interviews, focus groups and observation. By reviewing the secondary source through books and journals to understand the historical background and information of the project site and environment. The office is located in the comparatively tranquility district, which is a cultural root of Shanghai. Conducted semi-structured interviews with the Chairman of the company to grasp their vision and corporate image, it enables designers to receive insights on how they expect design can improve the management, operation and team spirit.
- Challenge
- The deviation may be caused by the focus group that some participants are hesitant to share deeply their views. The challenge of communicating with the local contractor on the design details and material application.
- Realization and Technology
- Designers utilize the height of the ceiling, illuminating the project with reinterpreted traditional screens, which are adorned with the engraved acrylic panels and delicate metal details, exquisitely full-length Chinese landscape artwork, and humble hospitable lighting. With the distinct contrast of the darker wooden stripes and cooler tone of the surrounding wall and floor finishes, the Pavilion kindles the office space with a dynamic lighting effect.
- Operation and Interaction
- The design values human connection. Inside the Pavilion, a semi-enclosed teahouse is introduced to the project as an alternative venue for casual business activities, which encourages engagements and collaborations for both clients and employees in an amicable atmosphere. The conference room design presents a lasting corporate impact on employees and visitors. The mini center island is elaborately custom-made for the presenter standing and moving around smoothly to interact with each audience. The meeting space remarkably reveals the corporate identity and core value with a professional and reliable reputation to the visitors.
