Unique Properties

The design team adopts irregular design, breaking the stereotype of the square impression in the space. Also, they transform the interior into a forest image, and they merge with the concept of honeycomb and cave, echoing the work configuration with the natural ecological environment. Moreover, they adopt large glass windows so that the outside sceneries accompany the interior design, breaking the distance from nature.

Dimensions & Packaging

The wooden table is made of driftwood from the sea that was picked up 30 years ago. The design team takes into account the volatiles of the pesticides which are harmful to human beings. Thus, they adopt the eco-friendly method, using heat to eliminate pests. Also, the long pallet low cabinet is served as a storage cabinet, made from recycled surplus materials. It has both functions of book collection and space storage. In addition, the PVP water pipe is shaped like a tree trunk. Not only does the top disc have the image of sheltering the clients underneath the tree, but also has the function of hiding the pipeline.

Production Technology

The design team adopts the two-point perspective square wall behind the client in the reception room space. They adopt discarded floor materials, trees, dead branches to create the wall. Moreover, the iron parts on the desk are taken the surplus materials from industrial construction. A large number of wooden tables and panels in the office space, refurbished with processed driftwood after adopting the eco-friendly method of using heat to eliminate pests. Moreover, the grindstone floor presents wood elements. The design team adopts specially hardened glass on the transparent floor of the meeting space.

Design Challenge

The difficulties are that how to balance between beauty and practicality, and whether the design team can create a delicate atmosphere in the space. Thus, it challenges the design teams creativity. The water pipe column originally used as the trunk of the tree contains pipelines and wires inside. In the space, there is lots of ingenuity in the image of the woods in order to get rid of the rigid stereotype of the office. When the design team borrows the idea of the image of a cave, they took lots of time communicating with the client

Research

Nature nourishes everything. And, lush forests are thriving. The clients spare no efforts in the office, bathing in natural light. Moreover, the clients feel the texture of the wood, enjoying the shelter of the shade, and feeling the sunlight through large windows. In short, the natural feeling cant be presented by standard laminate lamps. The clients can see the carefree fish swimming on the ground floor. The air roots hanging down from the tree top connect each table and each other in the space. The wood elements can be seen everywhere, lighting up life.

Inspiration

The design team adopts two concepts of nature and environmental protection in order to create a comfortable office environment. With outdoor natural light, the boundary between indoor and outdoor has become blurred. And, the wood and iron elements that can be seen in the space are all waste materials that are recycled and reused. The design team takes the concept of environmental protection into practice, and they design a bright and comfortable office with aesthetics at the same time.

Project Duration

The project finished in July 2018 in Yuanli Township, Miaoli County.

Operation Flow

In order to break the sluggish stereotype of the office and have a connection with the outdoor space, the design team creates an atmosphere of lush woods in the interior. With air-rooted iron pipes, column-shaped tree trunk, the use of a gold filament lamp tube creates a change in the shade of the tree and the conference room uses transparent glass panels to present fish swimming in the space. It breaks the boundaries between indoor and outdoor so that the clients can feel free in the space, and they can work effectively.
