Micro-scale effects can wield significant influence on overall experiences and environments. The concept of the project is to craft a comprehensive office environment through micro-perceptual perspectives, among landscape, architecture, interior, people, and greenery. It underscores the integration of micro-level relationships, from the perspectives of "micro-architecture," "micro-landscape," and "micro-interior," to evoke the "micro-interactions" among people in this new office environment.
At the lobby, through the enrichment of facade shapes, the combination of various materials, the reflective properties of metal textures, and the seamless integration of indoor and outdoor pavings, the boundary between interior and exterior spaces blurs, fostering a sense of micro-interpenetration. The deep grid ceiling within the lobby features a sense of architecture, imparting a distinct character to the space with a sense of order.
Additionally, the unique skylight-like lighting accentuates the space's sculptural contours. The fluid reception desk and the enclosure interfaces complement each other, fostering social interaction within the space and encouraging natural micro-interactions among people. Light and shadow play across the striped metal sheet wall, generating micro visual effects that evolve over time. The integrated low wall and reception desk play with each other, with innovative and futuristic elements enriching micro perceptions and complementing the lively green micro-ecology.
Innovatively designed lamps are positioned on one side of the space, reflecting light through iconic metal discs and unexpectedly creating a futuristic experience. . By introducing various seating configurations, the design fully explores the social potential of the space, encouraging micro-interactions in an orderly setting. Micro-landscape of shrubs and moss is integrated into sofa and table, complemented by silver matte metal and bronze stainless steel. These elements amplify the pioneering spirit of social engagement, ushering in new forms of micro-social collaboration.
In the elevator hall, vertically textured walls with silver striped metal give the structural blocks a sense of sculpture. The pixelated signage system attached to the walls adds interest, clarity and freedom, and facilitates fluid movement. The concept of green ecology extends to the underground garage, transforming an originally negative space into an area with a fresh sensory impact, activating the micro perception of future ecology.
In this project, TOMO Design redefines micro spatial perceptions with avant-garde elements, reshaping the connections between landscape, architecture, interior, and human. The design delves into the micro-relationships between nature and architecture, individuals and space, to explore micro-experiences within the space and discover the micro-emotions that truly resonate with people.
