The designer presents the design concept and results of the Maku Office Shanghai project through the background stories of Vladimir Ilyich Lenin, Wassily Kandinsky, Makku Culture and RDP Team. 

The designer follows the planar logic of the building, the main use of space along the curved line, set up a number of variant nodes, to achieve the open and closed freely, creating a breathing elastic space. 

The designer takes inspiration from the contemporary art trend and uses hard lines as the skeleton and vivid colors as the blood. The abstract painting-like composition brings an avant-garde and diversified spatial experience, which expresses the blueprint of corporate ideals and cultural heritage.
