To avoid the solemn impression of a traditional office, the design team aims to make full use of the space as well as create a variety of gray areas.
The minimalism monochrome style is not only under the economical consideration, but also fits the modern and high-tech esthetic of an IT company.

The glass walls make the office a transparent space and make every part link together, which reduces the sense of narrowness. The well-arranged black-and-white patterns create the sense of ample space, and the application of glass walls meets the light requirement as well as reduces the sense of narrowness from limited room.
The neat and clean tea room offers the staff a relaxing atmosphere. The wooden bay windows add a warm tone to the whole black-and white space.
