Poly Future Science Park Offices – Beijing
Poly Future Science Park has embraced a modern concept to inspire employees at their Beijing office, a space designed for connectivity, flexibility and functionality.
CUN Design has designed the efficient and modern offices of the Poly Future Science Park, located in Beijing, China.
CUN Design proposed the concept of corporate operation space. It is the first space in China to combine the concepts of art creativity, technology office and green office to complete the efficiency of corporate office.
CUN Design has come up with a special design method for real-estate companies. Before beginning the design, we should have a thorough understanding of relevant policies and precisely find out our design purpose and task by considering both our own development need and the features of design projects. With analysis of receptors’ consumption trend, we can establish a proper supply-demand relationship to have our own core competitiveness in leading industrial development trend.
Nowadays, futuristic office design, which goes beyond conventional unified office design, has become one of the most fast-growing global office revolutions and it demands more capacity and faces more requirements.
Future Metropolitan, part of “Metropolitan” project of Poly Real Estate, is located in Southern future science park in Changping District in Beijing and it’s the first complex built on the subway in a science park in China. Also, these sample offices we design have become a new-generation agglomeration of headquarter office, united office and creative office. The reason why Poly chose CUN Design is that the latter can break conventions, redefine spaces and re-organize them.
Usually, offices were initially built for management but later, they have gradually been designed like cubicles. However, with the development of the times, people have new requirements for “office landscape” and ask for “mobile” office.
Space design only requires to create a space image but design of office, a place of “data” connectivity, is different. In the office system CUN Design has set up, our analysis of every area in office is based on workers’ behaviors or activities in the limited space in modern offices, namely on how employees at different levels in internet companies, emerging companies and traditional companies work.
What CUN Design is always pursuing is to design a space which can be used for consecutive 3-5 years and preserve its value despite the passing of time. The most unique value of office design is to build “connectivity”, which means we should design an ideal place in office to allow the interactions between employees, between employees and the company, and between the company and outside world. There are three main places in this office: a reception area, connectivity area and service area.
In this area, we have deliberately adopted a vivacious design for the front desk, rather than the traditional rigid design in order to encourage clients to directly follow what they see to walk into the reception area, where continuous, overlapped or independent curve structures will give them a soft and comfortable sense of surrounding.
While designing, we consider more the spatial value brought by the sense of form. We want visitors to feel valued in a comfortable manner and to have a taste of corporate culture from the reception area, rather than let them just stay in the waiting area or directly go to the meeting room. So we find a properly balanced area to build it into a place leaving visitors the first impression of this office.
Flexible working environment can allow employees to have a sense of belonging to work anytime and anywhere. This is so-called “office connectivity”. It can generate a direct and effective working system because such flexible and simple environment can produce good work mode, allocate human resources well, improve space use efficiency and area-effectiveness and reduce comprehensive user cost.
In a new space, not only the view but also its functions will be renewed and upgraded. That’s why we design a semi-enclosed leisure area, an important connectivity area providing dynamic experience in office.
We live in an era where we need social space, however, whatever we see in numerous offices are all similar cubicles and unexpected winding structures. Higher and higher office buildings and our passionate hearts all submerge into the strangeness and indifference brought by structures de-signed under unified rigid rules.
We spend most time of the day in office at which we want to have good experiences from those designs and logical layout and feel our value. What we need to do is to make office a place that can really “inspire” people. That’s enough and that’s what future office is like!
