这间办公室位于一家以前的金属工厂里。切除的对角线钢结构给工作室建造两层楼的愿望带来了困难。结构与天花板之间的距离太小，不适合传统的地板和桌子的办公布局，因此在钢结构的上方创建了一层楼。

The office is situated in a former metal factory. The excising diagonal steel structure was causing difficulties to fulfill the wish of the studio to create two floors. The distance between the structure and ceiling was too small for a traditional office layout of floor and tables; therefore a floor is created just above the steel structure.

四个工作站放置在钢型材之间的空间，把地板变成一个连续的办公桌，而四个凹进的工作站提供了一个更传统的工作空间。大型的“工作楼层”邀请设计师们利用开放的空间进行思考、写生、会议、绘图、建模、坐姿和放松。这种对办公室空间的非正式解释鼓励了工作室内不同项目和学科之间的交叉授粉。

Four working stations are placed in the space between the steel profiles, transforming the floor into one continuous desk, while the four recessed stations provide a more traditional workspace. The large 'work floor' invites the designers to use the open space for thinking, sketching, meeting, drafting, modeling, sitting and relaxing. This informal interpretation of office space encourages cross-pollination between the different projects and disciplines occurring within the studio.

在较低的楼层，各个工作站沿窗户放置。绿色雕塑桌可用于社区活动。中央楼梯形态各异，让人想起从天花板上掉下来的一大滴水。进入楼梯后，一个鲜红色的高度饱和的环境吞噬并包围着个体，这明显地标志着对比鲜明的办公区之间的过渡。这种颜色在二楼被重复作为一个重音，突出凹陷的工作区域。

On the lower floor the individual workstations are placed along the window. A green sculptural table can be used for communal activities. Informal and contoured, the central staircase is reminiscent of a large droplet of water ready to fall from the ceiling. Upon entering the stairway, a highly saturated environment of bright red engulfs and surrounds the individual, starkly marking the transition between the contrasting office areas. The color is repeated on the second floor as an accent to highlight the recessed work areas.
