DESIGN CONCEPT

As an online platform for personal branding, Cake serves every individual as a crucial joint during career journeys, witnessing their various stages of self-development.

The design ideology of Cake’s office is dedicated to forging a workplace and a demonstration of the company's core values and culture: Cake provides resume services and extends to talent matching and system services, striving to assist individuals in personal development in their career journeys.

CORPORATION IMAGE INFUSION

The entrance feature wall is crafted with layers of stacked glass, with the concept of a "portal" representing Cake’s philosophy, continuously "transmitting talents to the most suitable positions”

The silhouettes of the passer form fast-moving, semi-transparent deconstructed shadows, resembling the intersection of different journeys and countless experiences which enforces the idea of “Traverse throughout the workplace”.

Whenever Employees and visitors move through this space can immerse in the ritual of transmission between sensory experiences, which again concretely embodies the uniqueness of Cake's business ecosystem.

FLEXIBLE AND COHERENSE

Following the principles of flexibility and coordination, the workspace constructed a sense of security by utilising circular shapes and surrounded spatial closure, in here every piece of furniture can be moved and bounded with numerous combinations to generate creativity among employees, furthermore, consolidating the autonomy of employees.

This mobilized furniture can even be rearranged for big events such as opening venues, office activities, and so on, which promotes colleague interactions and collaborations.

DEDICATION OF SPACE USAGE

Unlike traditional office layouts, the bar area plays the role of the converging point of different departments, restructuring the space functions with maximized space utilization while maintaining the high fluidity of each zone’s characteristics.

The usage of different carpet materials that delineate areas, the focused consensus of stand-up areas, and the disturbances barricades provided by phone booths, ensuring the office’s efficiency while meeting every user’s needs in this young company, fully stretched Cake’s productivity.

FARSIGHTED DESIGN CONCEPT

For future organizational expansion, the communication area can be converted into seats for new employees.

This forward-thinking design approach balances practical assessment of time and environmental costs while maintaining a visionary perspective.
