In the new era, workspace is no longer simply a place where people gather for work. It is also a carrier of new modern lifestyle and a window that conveys corporate values and culture. As conceiving the headquarters office for this new company emerged in the Internet era, the design team responded to its revolution and demands with systematic design thinking, and gave new interpretations to workspace under such context. 

Innovation:
The design team fully understood the company's core values — "Creation, Empowerment, Efficiency, Cutting Edge, and In-Depth Exploration of Users' Needs". The company's internet products and services are based on an efficient, clear and simple program design that relies on accurate and rigorous algorithms, which are in essence the construction of logic relations in mathematics. "Algorithm" comes from "algebra", which is embodied as "geometry" in space. Therefore, the designers proposed the spatial concept "algorithmic geometry". Based on this concept, the team translated the mathematical relation of "algorithm" into spatial geometric relation, and extracted four spatial prototypes that fit the client's corporate culture to interpret the functional layout and attributes of space.

Creativity:
The overall spatial structure is based on the concept "white box". Linear lighting is integrated into the geometric system of the space, creating a clear and simple background, while the various auxiliary spaces add vibrant hues inside. By inserting a "geometric box", the corporate display space at the main entrance is transformed into a viewing frame. This "box" also serves as a leisure seat, and the viewing frame links different functional areas, thus enhancing fluidity of the space.

Functionality:
The design team arranged the public functional area at the position that faces south and enjoys optimal view, other spaces are designed as open and independent offices according to demands. Such layout design is applied to both the 35th and 36th floors, but the degree of openness varies for different functions. A "salon box" is set at one end of the open reception area. It can be used for both open salon discussions and professional training. The "salon box" can be combined with the open reception area to form an integrated space for holding large-scale training sessions.

Sustainability:
The wall mainly adopts economical and environment-friendly latex paint. The combination of storage furniture and furnishings improves space-use efficiency. Landscape plants and colorful glass are functioned as partial partitions in the space, which realizes coherent spatial experiences while ensuring a certain degree of independence. Besides, landscape plants make the space more comfortable. Glass folding door with metal frame used in the open space advances the flexibility, variability and use efficiency of the space.
