Construction

Situated in a business building, Minhang District, Shanghai. The project originated from going to the partner company to discuss a new project. They happened to want to expand a 48-square-meter office, so they talked about ideas by the way, and the project began. 

In recent years, due to the impact of the epidemic, the office space is no longer confined to the original cubicle. The client hopes that this space can be flexible, which coincides with our idea. Therefore, satisfied the basic functions, all meaningless decorations are removed, and the space is shaped as simply as possible. Even if the use scene is adjusted, the waste and pollution caused by the decoration can be reduced as much as possible. 

In terms of materials, a special wooden veneer is selected as the main material of the space, which expresses the personality and reflects a unique space through the use of materials. Considering the orientation of the building and the direct sunlight at noon, the sliding door system is used to adjust the light, and part of the natural light is introduced into the room by opening holes to adapt to the changes of sunlight in the day. 

A 360 ° rotating glass partition is designed at the entrance, which can be used as both a partition and a whiteboard for painting. It is hoped that in the post-pandemic period, office space can also have more possibilities to adapt to different situations.
