Production Technology

The shade generated under the sunlight mapping introduces the natural poetry, and the outdoor wind and shadow are naturally integrated into the indoor. In response to the sustainable spirit of environmental protection, it is to cherish the beauty of nature in front of us. The designer hopes to reduce the use of plastic products and also blend the industrial style and the nearby green environment. The main decoration and design are the light and shadow and the change of virtual reality.

Design Challenge

The communication and interaction between people are preserved in the space. The supervisor's office uses striped glass like wood grains, between the virtual and the real, to cleverly preserve privacy and transparency. The ceiling in the center of the first floor is designed with a circular arc-shaped hollow space, with the image of a round sky, matching the use of windows and glass on the second floor, considering feng shui planning and lighting and ventilation. At the same time, in order to highlight the characteristic style in the space, most of the software, compartments, counters use black iron parts, use gray-black wood veneers, connecting the white wall counters and black iron parts, and presenting them ingeniously black-gray industrial tone.

Project Duration

The project finished in November 2019 in Taoyuan, Taiwan.

Operation Flow

In order to improve the working environment of employees and keep the overall clean and tidy, the designer makes full use of gifts from nature, and integrates the landscape into the interior through large-area windows. The desk faces the door, and employees can look at the greenery and relax their nerves after work. As the day goes by, the light and shadow become the most gorgeous decoration in the space, changing in many ways, like dancers dancing in the space. Even if indoors, the residents can still feel the changes in the outer space and accumulate more energy.

Research

In order to keep the space open and ventilated, the designer does not set up traditional compartments, but uses a large number of wooden grilles, bordered glass compartments and iron cabinets to divide the space appropriately. The grille echoes the reflection of the tree, and the effect of lighting interaction is like a tree standing unshakable and leaves swaying with the wind, lively and interesting.
