Man is a mixture of interests, feelings and desires, but the essence of man is an animal on the earth, so it still has all the characteristics of animals. With a highly developed brain and complex abstract thinking, language, self-will and problem-solving abilities, humans eventually develop strong labor ability and creativity through mutual communication, communication, cooperation, and dedication.
The project is a new office of design practice JG PHOENIX.The designer hopes to express that a team spirit of frank communication and cooperation is needed between people by virtue of this artist's work. The essence of design is also an aesthetic activity that achieves purpose through continuous communication focusing on identifying and solving problems, and an aesthetics-relevant activity for figuring out ideal solutions to meet certain demands.
We hope to find the design concept we admire through the design thinking we have been pursuing, and also hope to use materials with oriental charm in the space to create a dialogue and fusion between the past and the present. Endowed with spirituality, the space is intended to influence users' thoughts and life.
To create a sustainable spatial style, JG PHOENIX created a working environment dominated by rational hues, hoping to evoke logical thinking. Besides, the office is also expected to stimulate inspiration, dynamism and sensitive perceptions. The contrast of cool and warm materials is used as the basic style of the design.
The design team utilized common materials, like rough fair-faced concrete, red travertine with Oriental charm, and brass, to set the overall tone of the space, and meanwhile brought in vintage furniture, modern Bauhaus office furniture and contemporary artworks are used as thought guides to create an office space that combines rationality and sensibility.
Light and shadow are the concrete and formal embodiment of modern technology and aesthetics, the balance between form and function, the details of decoration, a kind of objective function and mechanical aesthetics. Furthermore, the introduction of the intelligent system also achieves the purpose of saving time and cost and having a pleasant user experience for the communication between people. The design of modern space needs to be combined with the development of modern technology.
In terms of space structure, classic furniture with Bauhaus elements are used; the gray tone and the color tone of the log are neutralized, and the design form is expressed by an architectural technique, which is reflected in the shadow and detail parts. The sense of the age of the old-fashioned brass material, the style of the modern architecture of fair-faced concrete, the warm and strong feeling of red travertine, the texture of artistic lacquer, and the collision of various materials make the space more distinct.
In the open office area, simplistic structures and material textures form a dramatic visual effect. The textures of the existing concrete columns are retained, to produce an industrial atmosphere. Hiroshi Sugimoto's red seascape elements at the end of the passage to pay tribute to the integration of Eastern and Western historiography, philosophy and aesthetics.
Natural elements bring the trace of time to the space. Large areas of rough concrete set the tone of the space. Lines, points and planes are elaborately arranged, which produces a sophisticated and open space.
The open reception area connects with the corridor, and the corner is full of surprising design details. The wooden column that features traditional Chinese mortise-and-tenon structures erects and links with a ceiling corner, to pay tribute to Oriental poetry. A balance is achieved with the warm Chinese style and cold reinforced concrete.The niche on the brass wall places a Chinese-style carved wooden artwork, the wall holes are inlaid with gold lacquer wood carvings of traditional figures. All the subtle details are explorable.
Nowadays, space is not merely a functional place, but also becomes a place that accommodates spirit and energy. This office is immersive and sedate, which stimulates a calm state of mind.
The interweaving of old and new elements brings a harmonious sense of time. Bauhaus conceptsand the modern minimalism idea of "Less is more" are expressed in the design. Although modernism advocates simplicity, the ultimate purpose of space is for people to use. Therefore, the designer hopes to inject temperature, emotion, memory and other elements that can resonate with people into the space, so that the space can be balanced and better suitable for people's use.
The passage is made of old-fashioned brass material and winds all the way into the office, making the space more continuous and connecting with the outside space more closely. In the design director's office, the Chinese classical furniture and artworks collected and accumulated during long-term travels make the space subjectivity more prominent. Oriental charm plays an important role in today's design thinking. Works of art that symbolize Oriental cultural elements are integrated into the space, such as Chinese classical furniture, which is the heritage of time and also a microcosm of a big era. Deep thinking is a very important "tool" in the creative process, allowing us to remove distractions and reverently talk to ourselves.
This case is the new office space of JG Phoenix Design in Shenzhen. The design reflects the thinking and tribute to nostalgia, and also has expectations and full imagination for the development of future space design. It introduces the concept of "natural aesthetics" advocated, blurs the boundaries of space style, combines rationality and sensibility, and expresses the original intention of communication in the space with the subtle relationship between people.
