Unique Properties

Located on the 35th floor of Gubei SOHO, the open office is designed to promote space interaction, improve work efficiency, and strengthen the interaction between people.
Via the design of stairs and hidden light strips, two conference rooms and two telephone booths using spare space rise from the floor, giving people the reverie of floating in the air. This kind of design language is constantly used in the office, even used in the ceiling design.

Dimensions & Packaging

OMG chooses to create a monochromatic office as the main color language, to clearly highlight the main paths. The solution was to divide the space into separate uses for separate entrance. The main lobby of the office is the studio's public area, a "living space” to increase connections and interpersonal exchanges and capable to welcome clients. And the other half is designed as the working area, so that the employees can have independent design space and other ancillary functional areas better.
