About Soco Work Coworking Space

Soco Work is 'n nuwe soort werkruimte wat ontwerp is om gebruikers te akkommodeer wat leefstyl verander en nuwe definisies voorstel van wat 'n werkruimte kan wees. Soco Work neem inspirasie uit hoe Thai mense daarvan hou om hul kos te geur om die smaak die naaste aan hul persoonlike voorkeure te hê. Die ontwerpkonsep neem dus die benadering op wat uiteindelik verskillende style van werkruimte skep om omvattend voorsiening te maak vir voornemende huurderbeelde en leefstyl. Die ontwerp maak dit ook moontlik om die ruimtes met die grootste doeltreffendheid te bestuur en die sterk punte van die projek te versterk.

Design Challenge: The design makes the best use out of the extra height of the space by elevating the seating level of the common area to create a more personal space for users. Additionally, the spatial manipulation that ends up creating varying seating levels makes the coworking space more spacious and open, enabling users to have a wider view of the floor thanks to the descending seating levels that prevent the seats from obstructing each other view.
Research: Having been informed about the concept and the idea of an office with diverse alternative space, the design team works with the requirements and studies the nature of the business, as well as the owner preferences and demands, and equally important, the employee behaviors. The design is later reconciled into a workspace with two different sections.
