Unique Properties: The case is located in Hsinchu. As a Minatural Design’s office space, the primary goal is to achieve the "harmonious relationship between man and nature". When combining "nature" and "life" in the office space, it creates a comfortable working environment for the design worker.
Dimensions & Packaging: This space is 76 square meters
Tags: Interior Design, Commercial space
Production Technology: Along the large windows, small couches and cabinets are also available. The space on either side of the entrance serves as a storage room, cleverly hidden behind the LOGO wall.
Design Challenge: The "harmonious relationship between man and nature" is the hardest part of this design.
Research: Integrated with cement ceiling and LOGO wall, wooden bookshelves and a conference table, as well as natural light and hanging green plants, the overall space is transformed into a forest library space.
Inspiration: Due to the small area of the single floor, the case does not consider to set up an independent executive office. Each designe worker can enjoy the sunlight and high-rise view because the main office area is placed in the window side.
Project Duration: The project finished in 2019 in Hsinchu City, Taiwan.
Operation Flow: The meeting room has a clear glass compartment to reduce the feeling of space limited. Floor to ceiling wooden bookshelf contains hundreds of design books, materials and artwork.
