About Manas Design Space Office
Manas Design Space is an office interior created for an interior design studio. The design focuses on air flow, natural plants, the use of daylight, ergonomic office furniture and environmentally friendly materials. The plan includes a shared learning space, a book bar, a fitness area, a yoga room and a dining room. Separate private offices were removed to create an open and inclusive layout. A partial second floor was added to increase spatial depth and usable area, while a sunken area forms a shared gathering space. The interior covers 600 square meters.

- Production Technology
- In the original space, the second floor was partially built to increase the sense of hierarchy and utilization. Partially digging creates a furnace-like sharing experience in the sinking area. As a designer's working space, it creates an inclusive, open and transparent working atmosphere that is conducive to collaboration, neat, concise, and efficient.
- Design Challenge
- In the process of implementation of the design scheme, the original structure has been around for a long time, and we partially built the second floor to increase the sense of hierarchy and utilization. Partially digging creates a furnace-like sharing experience in the sinking area. The biggest challenge is the process of choosing between functions, which is a coexist and win-win combination of multiple business forms.
- Project Duration
- The design plan was launched in October 2019, construction started in November 2019, and put into use in February 2020
- Operation Flow
- The planning of the overall space has multiple ways of movement lines of work path, visit path and the meeting path. We advocate the openness of space and the same frequency of collaboration between teams. The engineering department and the operation department are distributed around the design department with the design department as the core, and there is full interaction between the organizations.
- Research
- As an interior designer's office space, it is inclusive, vigorous, open and changeable.
The design makes work concise and efficient while doing the best possible to achieve physical and mental health, combining work and rest, activate the designer's creativity with a relaxed and natural decompression atmosphere. - Inspiration
- We hope to create a particularly unforgettable experience at work, that both the people at work and visitors can feel the joy of space, and a ‘home’ to enjoy your work and people you work with. Through the warm details, creates a sense of attachment under the blessing of time. For the current struggling people, work has become the most important part of our daily lives. If we love work as we love ourselves, then the work environment should also care for the struggling youth silently like nature.
