RESEARCH ABSTRACT: We did materials research on how various building materials would affect the mood of the interior as well as the well-being and productivity of the occupants. We develop our concepts into clean lines, forms and neutral colours with several materials which we uses to showcase. This resulted with comfortable discussion areas, formal meeting rooms as well as informal discussion areas and kitchen for staffs to prepare their meals. These areas can also be used to showcase how materials affect the moods of their homes.
CHALLENGE: Our office was located within the industrial building and we wanted very much to have the relaxed interior within the heavy and busy Industrial Building. We meet up with various of building material suppliers for discussion to fully understand them and how we could customised and display the materials neatly and present them to our customers easily within reach without have to compromise on the mood we wanted to create within the office space.

I am in awe of this stunning office space, which creates a relaxed environment for its staff and customers. The modern industrial building is transformed with clean lines, forms, and neutral colors that are complemented with several unique materials. It is clear that a lot of research has gone into understanding how materials would affect the mood of the space, as well as how to display them to visitors. The result is an office that is modern and inviting, with comfortable discussion areas and formal meeting rooms. The attention to detail is truly impressive and this award-winning work is a testament to the skill of the designer behind it.
