About The Entry

This project involves the design of a three-floor office space of approximately 300 square meters. The client, who works in the electromechanical industry, requested a tech-inspired and atmospheric environment for both display and work. The design follows the principle of "seeing the light, not the fixture," using light to narrate the space and create a transparent, dynamic visual effect.

On the first floor, the display area integrates the feature wall with the corridor, incorporating geometric shapes, ellipses, and rippling textures to symbolize the harmony between heaven and earth. The central logo appears to dance on water under reflected lighting, echoing the brand identity. Product displays are enhanced with curved transparent panels and streamlined lighting, making certificates, products, and trophies stand out under subtle illumination.

The staircase area combines functionality with artistic atmosphere: a landscape arrangement of stones, sand, and plants beneath the stairs evokes a poetic feel; motion-sensor lights along the steps improve convenience; and a recessed niche beside the glass railing provides both lighting and a display space for mementos, adding a personal touch.

The second-floor office emphasizes openness and simplicity, with intentional blank spaces on walls allowing staff to personalize their environment. Multifunctional storage cabinets keep documents and belongings neatly organized. A rest area features a staircase in soothing shades of blue-green and light champagne, intended to offer visual therapy and reduce workplace stress. This informal space also encourages relaxed communication between employees and management.

Overall, the design focuses on the interplay of light, color, and functional details, creating a modern office environment within a compact footprint that balances technological aesthetic, human-centered care, and practical efficiency.
