DESIGN NAME: Super Tomato and Endless
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Office
INSPIRATION: What do employees want to get from the space?What makes the workplace comfortable and pleasant? How to convey the company's values and belief in the interior design language? What will work look like in the future? And what do designers want? Those questions are needed to be considered and answered in the design.
By breaking through the conventional design for workplace, the design team added the idea of "home" into the design so that work is to integrate with life in the space.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: By breaking through the conventional design for workplace, the designers added the idea of "home" into the design so that work is to integrate with life in the space.
Since the original floor height is only 4.4m, the designers utilized a one-mete-high sunken space to make a mezzanine, hence maximizing the use of the whole space. By taking advantage of floor height, functional divisions for working, kitchen and conference, etc. are well arranged in the two-storey space without rigid partitions.

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: The reception table at the entrance is made of white artificial stone, forming a sharp contrast with the self-leveling floor. The mirror-finish base of the reception table makes the table seem like floating in the air. Glass doors are largely used in reception area, the textures of which resemble running water. Thus, the interior space enjoys sufficient natural lights, thereby creating a bright and airy environment with a simple and clean layout.
SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: Project area: 350sqm

RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Since the original floor height is only 4.4m, the designers utilized a one-meter-high sunken space to make a mezzanine, hence maximizing the use of the whole space. By taking advantage of floor height, functional divisions for working, reception, kitchen and conference, etc. are well arranged in the two-storey space without rigid partitions.
CHALLENGE: The biggest challenge is that as the original floor height is not high enough, a one-meter-high sunken space is created to make the first floor enjoy a two-story height.
