Design Details

Unique Properties
The 800-square-meter office with minimalist white interior is located northeast of central Changsha, which belongs to interior design studio 8C ART SPACE and its construction company INCH. The office interior was overhauled by 8C ART SPACE as celebration of "raw materiality and geometric simplicity". The raw, minimalistic aesthetic help to strip the space down so as to truly go inside of design.
Inspiration
We are inspired by a natural surrounding and realize that the design needed to be pared down and clear conceptually.
Realization and Technology
The office accommodates a workplace for studio 8C ART SPACE and also a showroom for INCH. Going through a floor-to-ceiling automatic sliding door into showroom, there are some high-end imported small-size spotlights as a warm welcome. The spacious main hall has been left open so that the company can use it for large-scale meetings, or transform into a gallery-style space for events. A long light corridor as a connection between studio and showroom has the collection of raw-yet-curated material board in different texture hanging on the wall and black carbonized timber bench seat where staff can sit to take a quick rest.
Operation and Interaction
Spatial angles and lighting provide contrast to the stark white; and light, shade and line are used. The studio additionally chose to use various translucent materials to create an open-plan layout that allows for easy circulation and clear sightlines.
