Unique Properties: Situated on the historic Royal Avenue of the Zhongshan North Road business district, the office occupies a rare loft with an eight-meter ceiling height.

Production Technology: The office redesign incorporates a theater catwalk concept to outline vertical spaces, serving as a relaxation area for employees and integrating functional pipelines for air conditioning, ventilation, and lighting systems. This also provides a safe platform for future maintenance work.
Design Challenge: Adapting to the high rental costs in the urban area, the renovation was strategically executed in two phases for efficient relocation. The design challenge was to create a multipurpose space that could accommodate diverse working and interaction needs, including soundproof phone booths for privacy and noise reduction.
Research: The project required an in-depth analysis of sunlight exposure, energy-saving lighting plans, and the integration of ergonomic principles to enhance the quality and functionality of the workspace, focusing on human-centered design and maintenance accessibility.
Inspiration: The design concept was inspired by the Japanese aesthetic of Wabi-Sabi, which finds beauty in imperfection and transience. This aesthetic guided the renovation of the century-old office for Ajinomoto, a leading producer of amino acids and related products, which has established a critical presence in the medical and electronics markets since its founding in 1908.
Project Duration: The project started in Jun. 2022 and finished in Sep. 2022 in Taipei City.
Operation Flow: The office layout adopts a symmetrical hexagonal OA arrangement, accommodating flexible furniture arrangements that support a Free Address system without fixed seating positions. This setup is responsive to the changing demands of remote work, video conferencing, and pandemic-related safety measures.
