架构师提供的文本描述。Malpyo是一家族企业，有着跨越三代人的悠久历史，它正在向化妆品行业扩张。URBANTAINER的使命是抓住公司向现代化和趋势导向的品牌过渡的精神与新的公司总部。设计理念的出发点是克服工厂作为生产场所的字面概念，创造一个空间，象征性地承载公司新品牌标识的能量，有效地利用集装箱的情感唤起色彩。Malpyo的新总部由两个部分组成，一个是办公区，一个是生产设施。为了创造一个具有独特特色的高效建筑空间，办公区是用集装箱建造的。

Text description provided by the architects. Malpyo, a family business with a long history spanning over three generations, is expanding into the cosmetics sector. URBANTAINER’s mission is to capture the spirit of the company’s transition to a modern and trend-oriented brand with the new company headquarter. The starting point for the design concept was to overcome the literal notion of a factory as a place of production by creating a space that symbolically carries the energy of the company’s new brand identity, by effectively utilising shipping containers in emotion-evoking colours. Malpyo’s new headquarter consists of two parts, the office area and the production facilities. In order to create an efficiently built space with a unique character, the office area was built with shipping containers.

由于其规模大，生产设备采用钢架结构，包覆容器外壳。这座建筑的独特之处在于这两部分的布局-办公区的角度就好像它从生产大厅向外突出一样。在重新设计之前，工厂是一个典型的产品，完全与外界隔绝，办公空间和生产区域之间有着清晰的分隔。在这个装置中，机械是制造货物的唯一用途。URBANTAINER设计策略的一个重要部分就是要打破这种二分法。办公室和生产区域之间的隔墙是由玻璃制成的，从办公室到工厂提供透明的视图，反之亦然。

Due to its large scale, the production facilities are based on a steel-frame structure, coated with container skin. What makes this building unique is the arrangement of the two parts–the office area is angled as if it diagonally protruded from he the production hall. Before the redesign, the factory was a typical production, completely shielded to the outside world, and with a clear separation between office space and production area. In this setup, machinery served the sole purpose of manufacturing goods. An important part of URBANTAINER’s design strategy is aimed at breaking up this dichotomy. The separating wall between the office and production areas is made of glass and provides a transparent view from the office to the factory and vice versa.

机器现在成为空间内部设计的一部分。所有构成工厂核心的程序，从制造到物流，都是显而易见的，并成为向游客传达品牌精髓的关键部分。该设计还扩展到生产过程的功能维度。为了最大限度地提高生产效率，空间布局现在通过考虑工人的流动和优化空间利用，容纳了从到达原材料到制造到成品的完整生产链的流程。有了新的设计布局，原材料和成品部分的交货和装货区分开，保证了一个顺畅的不间断工作流程。

The machinery now becomes part of the interior design of the space. All procedures that make up the heart of the factory, from manufacturing to logistics, are made visible and become a crucial part of communicating the brand essence to visitors. The design also extends to the functional dimension of the production process. In order to maximize production efficiency, the space layout now accommodates the flow of the complete production chain from arriving raw materials to manufacturing to the finished product by taking into account workers’ movements and optimising space utilisation. With the new design layout, separate delivery and loading zones for the raw materials and the finished product section guarantee a smooth un-interrupted workflow.

工人的另一个优化点是增加直接进入他们的休息设施，以减少不必要的通道。Malpyo总部大楼建设的一个早期挑战是大楼的特色位置。虽然位于主干道和小街之间，但由于当地的交通规则，无法从主干道进入。由此产生的从小街进入大楼的必要绕道和令人困惑的立面排列给游客带来了巨大的不便。这个问题是通过沿着陡峭的对角线轴对齐建筑质量来解决的，这样可以打开主干道的正面视野，让游客立刻找到通往主入口的便捷通道。

Another point of optimization for the workers is the addition of direct access to their rest facilities to cut unnecessary passages. One early challenge for the construction of the Malpyo headquarter building was the characteristic position of the building. While located between a main and a side street, access from the main road was not possible due to local traffic regulations. The resulting necessary detour to access the building from the side street and confusing facade alignment presented an enormous inconvenience for visitors. This problem was solved by aligning the building mass along a steep diagonal axis which opens up the facade view from the main road, allowing visitors to instantaneously find easy access to the main entrance.
