About The Floating Ribbon Enterijer poslovnog prostora
Plutajuća traka je enterijer kancelarije kreiran kao centrala za upravljanje kompanijom koja upravlja lukama na pet kontinenata. Radni prostor zauzima izduženu skladišnu zgradu pored obale, gde pet timova deli jedan otvoreni plan prostora. Veliki zakrivljeni element plafona, nazvan Plutajuća traka, objedinjuje zajedničke prostore i povezuje timove. Otvoreni plafon je oflajsan tamnoplavom bojom iznad zajedničkih prostora i tamnosivom bojom iznad radnih zona. Nameštaj je integrisan sa centralnim nizom stubova.

- Unique Properties
- The space is for a HQ management hub to operate worldwide ports globally in 5 continents. The design brings 5 teams co-sharing a warehouse linear space organically under a Floating Ribbon. Acted as a spatial definition, it unifies all communal spaces & links teams strategically together. The design encourages teammates sharing ideas and fosters collaborations all times. In Post COVID-pandemic, the strong identity gives communal space a pivotal role in the rebuild-up of teammates' relationship.

- Production Technology
- The Ribbon well defines the Public and Work Zones by having the open ceiling spray-painted into two colors - navy blue for the continuous communal spaces and dark grey for the generic work space, identity further enhanced.
Office furniture at each communal space are made in bold soften geometry and well-integrated on existing central row of columns. On one hand, each furniture floats at its own spaces and serves for its designated function, responding to the Floating Ribbon above. On the other hand, the design plays down the physical presence of the row of columns located at centre of the entire office space, and alters their perception from bulky volumes into functional spaces. - Design Challenge

- Research
- Design responds to :
- Office space under COVID shadow
- New dimension for inhouse Co-working space
- How Corporate Culture to reflect in design
- Office Identity - Inspiration
- Located by the waterfront in a warehouse building, the design responses to the brief having five teams co-sharing the industrial rectilinear space under one unique grand Floating Ribbon ceiling, of its form reflecting the Port business and its ocean culture. Instead of departmental organisation in traditional offices, the design turns it into a collaborative open plan, unifying multiple communal lounges into one continuous organic space so as to foster daily interaction and creativities.
- Project Duration
- The project started in 2021 Sep and finished in 2022 Mar.
- Operation Flow
- Work place design concerns more about well-being, socialisation and life-balance, rather than purely efficiency and quantities. Epidemic prevention policy and business lockdown have alter drastically the need and scale of communal spaces in the city as well as in commercial office. These conditions and social distancing generate huge need to develop more safer indoor spaces for daily lunch, online meetings with collaborators and socialisation with each other. The organic Ribbon space is responded well under the current global environment. The pandemic reduces the city mobility locally and globally, however it won't limit creativity and social desires in daily living and work
The design is a mix of the contemporary commercial aesthetic and the industrial mood inherited from terminal ports, which reflect well the culture of the international global company. - Patents
