Why we still need office space

When a screen can hold the next day's work, when a meeting can be opened anywhere there is a signal, a problemJustRepeated mentionandWe really need it.in the physical senseThe office?

grid microConstructionThe answer is yes. Over the past few years, we have witnessed the maturity of remote tools and the exhaustion and alienation of people at both ends of the screen. Technology solves“affair”efficiency, but can not solve“person”presence.

In our opinion, office space is never justArrangementContainers for tables and chairs and work stations——It's the interface where people connect,Is when being problemsThe field of knowledge rooting after "stuck,It is the soil where trust grows, where a sense of belonging is repeatedly confirmed, and where occasional innovations that cannot be scheduled occur.land。

The following sevenOffice workThe project is the seven answers we wrote in different cities.

01、Let the strangerIn the officeNatural acquaintance

The atrium of a company is often just a passing place.——People hurried through the lobby, each into its own compartment. And the photon countsNew office space in Beijing，Goge willThe atrium is designed as a“IndoorBusinessSquare”The sky light falls, the steps can be sat on, and the coffee fragrance leaves people here. People from different departments meet naturally on their way to the pantry and in the afternoon when they go downstairs to breathe. A nod turns into a dialogue, and a dialogue becomes the beginning of a collaboration.

Good space is never forced to socialize, it's just gently removed.Between peopleWall.

02、 Space to stayto getLive talent, also settle down to belong

Maternal and Infant Brand Shixi Care“be taken care”We give the same care to its employees: the mother and baby room, the green rest corner, and a large number of informal exchanges.“The Third Space”. These seemingly unrelated to the efficiency of the corner, is precisely the reason to stay the longest. When employees feel that they are taken seriously by space, they are willing to stay, be willing to say more and help more.

The sense of belonging is not an item on the welfare list, but the sentence that space said for the company."You are very important."。

03、 Offline connection, giving birth to trust and creative spark

Tide play is an industry driven by love, and love is difficult to transmit across the screen.——Across the screen, what you see is the commodity; in your hand, what you feel is the paranoia and romance of the creator. In 52TOYSOffice workHeadquartersInsideWe have brought the product itself into the space: the exhibition frame is like a flowing toy corridor, connecting the meeting, negotiation and leisure areas. The visitor stops for a toy, and the team quickly builds trust for a common aesthetic.

The most precious spark of creativity is often born in“YouComeLook at this”of that moment——And this sentence can only be said offline.

04、 Share the line, letR & D creativityTeam meet collision

Engineers are used to burying their heads in their respective test stands. At Songyan Power, we reorganized the order with an active line running through the floor: the pantry, the printing area and the model display were consciously arranged on the necessary road, and the spiraling slide turned vertical traffic into a short amusement.

05 Building a Participating Daily Culture with Brand Color

Culture is not a slogan written on a wall, but the colors and scenes that are used every day. In the office space of Mike World, the brand color is broken down into perceptible levels: bright color blocks in the public area stimulate discussion, low saturation color tones in the focus area calm emotions, and a touch of jumping color at the corner creates small surprises.

07、Future office, return to the irreplaceable human value of the machine

AIThe stronger, the more human value must return to the place where machines cannot replace it.——Feel, judge、HesitationWith empathy.ubrasBeijingComprehensiveThe design of the headquarters starts from this: we use soft curves, skin-friendly materials and restrained neutral colors to create a kind“be wrapped”The body feeling, let the office relax like home; At the same time, with an open co-creation area and a quiet alone cabin, the two basic states of guarding people——Expression and contemplation.

The answer to the future office is not more efficient, but more complete people.

Return toDoubt at the beginning，In the screen age, why do we still need office space? Because the screen transmits information, and space breeds relationships; remote tasks can be completed, but only together, people will trust each other, inspire,Build and connect。

grid microConstructionAlways believe that the end of the design is not the space itself, but the people in the space. Space achievements of people, achievements of the organization, but also the future——This is both the common footnote of the seven projects and the reason why we continue to answer this question.
