Vitra’s brand spirit is in line with the cultural and creative ambience of the site. Taking this as the starting point, we intended to create something different, with the space serving products whilst incorporating product concepts into the spatial design. The ample natural light brought in by the north-facing windows becomes the protagonist of the drama. Starting from the back of the fair-faced concrete wall, the light travels along the edges of this wall to the surrounding walls and ceilings, and eventually wraps the whole wall system. A USM reception desk is placed in front of the wall. The wall presents nodes featuring perfect craftsmanship. Vitra's most iconic designs are showcased at the entrance. Among Vitra’s classic products, chairs are most representative.The visual highlight in the cabin-like meeting room is the large pendant lamp called "Mama Cloud", which was designed by Frank Gehry for Belux. The corner between the office area and the exhibition hall reveals a group of "elephants", which seem to be playing together. The furniture is an integration of chair and desk, which together render a step-like form and offers many combinations and options for seating. The independent offices may not need a thorough transformation. It's necessary to preserve the memories of previous users while addressing the real problems that existed in the space, in order to create a more comfortable atmosphere, enhance daylighting and improve working efficiency.
