架构师提供的文本描述。DCA Office是自适应重用的一个例子。我们重新使用了现有的仓库结构，然后为我们的特殊目的对大楼进行了改造。

Text description provided by the architects. DCA OFFICE is an example of Adaptive reuse. We reused the existing warehouse structure and then retrofitted the building for our particular purpose.

办公室符合箱内箱的概念。空间需要灵活，提供私人和公共空间，同时允许日光穿越整个空间。当我们进入时，接待处将空间分成两部分-互动区和演播室。

The office conforms to BOX IN BOX concept. The space needed to be flexible, providing both private and communal spaces, while allowing for daylight to travel throughout the space. As we enter, the Reception divides the space into two parts-interaction zone and the studio.

互动区是一个大的大厅，有两个玻璃和木箱，供与客户和供应商会面，较大的剩余空间作为一个多用途的大厅。这是示威、模拟、内部团队会议和培训经常发生的地方。这也是一个午餐室和资源中心。

Interaction zone is a large hall with two glass and wooden boxes for meetings with clients and vendors and the larger remaining space serves as a multipurpose hall. It is where the demonstrations, mock ups, internal team meetings and training happen regularly. This also acts a lunch room and resource center. 

对于工作区，“最重要的是合作伙伴想要的是在工作室和项目团队之间建立一个高水平的交互。因此，这里引入了一套由四个盒子组成的盒子，允许合伙人、财务和项目主管享有隐私。地板单元和低高度砖隔板的设计是为了为设计和项目组创造更多的细分。帐务部门与演播室分开，给予他们必要的隐私和安静的环境。

For the working zone “The most important thing the Partner’s wanted was to create a high level of interaction between its studio and projects team. A set of four boxes was thus introduced here to allow privacy to the partners, finance and projects head. The floor units and low height brick partitions were designed as to create further subdivisions for the design and projects team. The Accounts department was segregated from the studio, giving them required privacy and quiet environment.

在这两个区域之间有一个视觉刺激的区域，包括接待室、储藏室和洗手间。这里的工业外观得到了改善，在厨房里使用了生木、粗糙的未抛光的Kota石和MS，以及带有基本漆/蜡的厕所来封闭未经处理的表面。天花板的绝缘非常关键，它是在拥有时立即进行的，以使空调系统有效。

Between the two zones is a visually stimulating zone of reception, pantry and restrooms. The industrial look is enhanced here with a use of raw wood, rough unpolished kota stone and MS in the pantry and toilets with a basic lacquering/waxing to seal off the untreated surfaces.  The ceilings insulation was very critical, it was immediately done on possession to make the air-conditioning system effective. 

无抹灰的墙壁被简单地涂上，旧的和新的家具的结合，新的照明-完成了想要的外观。我们保留了混凝土地板，并把服务暴露在天花板上。材料和细节的修整和细木工尽可能保持自然和极简。光秃秃的橡胶树被用来作为办公桌隔断，桌子，和玻璃支撑天花板的小屋。在简单重力的情况下，天花板支架没有投入任何支架。木匠的作品表，通常被称为“Adda”是迷人的设置-以其最初的形式，作为开放的讨论表在图书馆。

The un-plastered walls were simply painted on and the combination of old and new furniture, new lighting - completed the desired look. We retained the concrete floor and left services exposed across the ceilings. The finishing and joinery of the materials and details was kept as natural and minimalistic as possible. Bare Rubberwood was used sparingly for the work desk partitions, tables, and glass supported ceilings in cabins. Working on simple gravity, no supports were invested in for ceiling supports. The carpenter’s works table, commonly known as “adda” is glamourously set- in its original form as the open discussions table in Library.

在小预算和不妥协的情况下，这个空间成功地从一个旧的存储单元转变为一个功能齐全的工作空间。

Working with a small budget and no compromises, the space was successfully transformed from an old storage unit to a fully functional work space.
