Design Challenge: The design makes the best use out of the extra height of the space by elevating the seating level of the common area to create a more personal space for users. Additionally, the spatial manipulation that ends up creating varying seating levels makes the coworking space more spacious and open, enabling users to have a wider view of the floor thanks to the descending seating levels that prevent the seats from obstructing each other view.
Research: Having been informed about the concept and the idea of an office with diverse alternative space, the design team works with the requirements and studies the nature of the business, as well as the owner preferences and demands, and equally important, the employee behaviors.
