About World Service Head Office Edificio De Oficinas

Este é o plano da sede dunha empresa que fabrica e vende vodas e manteis. Cita a forma da mesa e a suavidade do pano nos edificios e materiais, apoia estruturalmente as grandes partes circulares sobresaíntes e dá unha sensación de flotación para crear o futuro. O deseño é impresionante cun gran volume, pero harmonizado cos ambientes naturais e locais.

Production Technology
In order to express the soft cloth used for the table, a large corrugated iron plate is used for the circular part, and the design gently wraps the building.
