Within an area of 465 square meters, the design team challenged themselves to conceive a workspace that incorporates the fashion vibes of Milan and Paris. The smart integration of a distinguishing art style into a professional office environment redefines coziness, fun, and a space that's truly suitable to the creative design studio.
Innovation:
Any first-time visitor to the studio will experience a strong visual impact from its rich colors as well as a change in emotions. It is perhaps not so much as an office but as a runway where a fashion show is going to be put on. The bold match of contrasting red and green comes from the designers' confidence in applying colors. As opening the olive green door of the meeting room, the staff will be greeted with a more passionate color— scarlet. Large areas of flower prints create a richness without causing any untidiness, which complement the black texture of the ceiling. The combination of high-saturation colors also conveys spatial dynamics through a visual language. Red and black are used as dominant hues of the space, which establishes prominent contrasts, making the space mysterious but romantic, calm yet passionate. Different ambiences coexist with each other. Bright colors surprisingly awaken the free will, allowing the employees to shift their working modes unboundedly in a relaxing environment.
Creativity:
The principle of de-emphasizing finishes and highlighting furnishings is completely implemented in SALONE DEL SALON's office. The creative combination of diversified elements, including the carpets, the furniture and the wallpaper, imperceptibly removes the stress of daily work, plays down conventional restrictions in the workplace, and flattens office hierarchies. Following the idea of "an office can also be a venue of art", this workspace is a rebel against convention.
Functionality:
The office space is centered around a pantry. A crisscrossing circulation route connects the whole space, which not only brings comfort for independent working, but also promises free social activities. Linear lighting adds a sense of futuristic technology, while a digital time display screen for different time zones introduces a dynamic vibe of fashion to the space. The negotiation room adopts a classical Chinese elegant style. The symmetrical, simple and elegant design facilitates equal, pleasant talks and interactions, while the irregular forms of articles represent the diversity and inclusiveness in the office.
Sustainability:
The design minimized the intervention to the exposed structures of the existing architectural space. The designers didn't add suspended ceilings but organized the circuit and pipelines rationally, which reduced resource consumption. Besides, carpet pieces and wall papers utilized are recyclable. The spatial ambience is mainly produced by furnishings, among which the movable furniture pieces can be adjusted or replaced flexibly.
