Office for Eft Space and Brand Design

Esk Space office space is located on the 27th floor of the Wisdom Gate in Binjiang District, Hangzhou, China. At the inception of the project, the designer's vision was to create an office space primarily focused on hosting visitors; a space that not only meets the needs for gatherings and conversations but also creates an atmosphere that transcends the comfort of home. Guided by this philosophy, the designer took into account factors such as spatial proportions and viewing angles, reconstructing and deconstructing the space.

Production Technology

The use of large mirror ceiling between the virtual and solid space; architecture; indoor and outdoor interweaving relationship, the use of large areas of stone and local luxury stones, logs, stainless steel and other materials to reflect the texture of the space.

Design Challenge

Space design, dividing functional areas is a major challenge. The key to solve this problem is the interpenetration, dislocation, layering and mirroring of building blocks. These techniques can not only divide space, but also create a sense of hierarchy and three-dimensional. Interspersed design makes the space more flexible, provides more functional area possibilities, and enhances spatial mobility and coherence.

Project Duration

Start 2023 february-completion 2023 June Hangzhou, Binjiang District, China.

Operation Flow

The first step, research, understand the design, function, style needs: 1. Plane planning. 2. Collect intention, develop style, soft installation positioning. 3. Draw preliminary scheme. 4. Draw the 3D model after the plane is confirmed. 5. After confirming the 3D model and material, draw the effect diagram. The third part presents the spatial effect: 1. Draw the initial 3D effect according to the spatial model. 2. After confirming the initial 3D effect, draw the HD renderings.

Research

Different lighting techniques are configured between day and night. During the day, it is decorated with natural lights and local point sources in the room, and at night, it is presented with the light source in the middle and low section of the indoor light source as the main indoor atmosphere light city night scene as the painting frame.

Inspiration

Inspired by Inception, the designer uses mirror, glass, stainless steel, marble wood finish and other materials, and creates different atmosphere Spaces from private to public through deconstruction and interpenetration. The entrance is transparent floor-to-ceiling glass, wide field of view overlooking the scenery of Hangzhou. The designer creates a sunken reception area in the central area that connects with the elevation of the entrance.
