What is a fine architectural space? “A fine architectural space must be evaluated from two different aspects: visual perception and user experience. Expending more effort to create a good visual perception is the pursuit of most designers. As a result, good user experiences are often ignored.” Considered by LI Yiming, the chief designer of this project. Health ( of three progressive levels including environmental health, physical wellness, and mental well-being) is one of the most important indexes to evaluate whether space has a good using experience.

什么是好的建筑空间？“一个良好的建筑空间必须从两个不同的方面进行评估：视觉感知和用户体验。花更多的精力创造一个良好的视觉感知是大多数设计师的追求。因此，良好的用户体验往往被忽视。“由这个项目的总设计师李一鸣考虑。健康(包括环境健康、身体健康和心理健康)是衡量空间是否有良好使用体验的最重要的指标之一。

Brii Biosciences global R-D center project is located in Beijing. The brief called for a new visual identity for the company’s workspaces, drawn from both their own background in medical and health care, as well as the corporate social responsibility. To this end, the chief designer of this project, LI Yiming takes “Shang Shan Ruo Shui.” (From Lao Zi, Tao Te Ching, which means the highest level of good deeds are like water which favors all without caring about vanity.) as the core design concept to convey the core mission of Brii Biosciences: “We are committed to serving the needs of patients and improving the level of public health care in China.” Based on this design concept the new office is built into an equal, healthy, open and innovative workspace.

Environmental Health The first level of health is environmental health. There are three essential elements at the first level: the natural light that symbolizes life, the fresh and moist air, and the pure and clear water. The auditorium area, named ‘Hai Na Bai Chuan’ (All rivers run into the sea), is an interior grey zone which doubles as an ‘all-hands space’ for both work and leisure. The US WELL standard was adopted in the whole design process of this project and the characteristics of the Chinese market has been fully considered. In order to create an office space filled with warm and comfortable natural light, the overall lighting system combines various illuminating systems such as light-sensitive curtains, electrified dimming glass, general lighting, and individual workstation lighting. Natural light flows into each workspace through the grille ceiling which maximize the use of natural light to create a comfortable and bright work space.

环境健康的第一层次是环境健康。在第一个层次上有三个基本要素：象征生命的自然光、清新潮湿的空气和纯净清澈的水。礼堂区名为“海那白川”(海那白川)，是一个内部灰色地带，兼有工作空间和休闲空间。在整个设计过程中采用了美国井标准，充分考虑了中国市场的特点。为了创造一个充满温暖舒适的自然光的办公空间，整个照明系统结合了各种照明系统，如光敏窗帘、电灯调光玻璃、普通照明和个人工作站照明。自然光流经格栅天花板进入每个工作区，最大限度地利用自然光，创造一个舒适明亮的工作空间。

The theme color of the enterprise and the materials with various textures ensure the overall soft and the pure tone of the space as well as enrich the visual level. Electrified glass, fiber fabric and diffuse reflection light source are widely used to provide kind of bright, transparent and soft architectural feeling.

企业的主题色彩和各种质地的材质，保证了整个空间的柔和纯净，也丰富了视觉层面。电气化玻璃、纤维织物和漫反射光源被广泛应用于提供一种明亮、透明和柔软的建筑感觉。

Air conditioning system is based on a fiber fabric air distribution system. This system integrates various air treatment equipment and facilities such as fresh air filtration, electrostatic dust removal, and haze prevention, photocatalyst sterilization, formaldehyde removal VOC, constant temperature and humidity terminal, etc. The printing room is equipped with independent exhaust equipment. The healthiest indoor air environment is owed to the comprehensive ventilation and air-conditioning system of this project. The whole space has no boundary, no focus and is infinitely extended which provides the users with a peaceful and relaxing architectural experience. Space is always in a positive pressure environment (similar to an airplane cabin), completely isolated from the outdoor unhealthy atmosphere. The straight water dispensers, anti-bacterial copper pipes, and taps are also used in the tea area to ensure water quality.

空调系统基于纤维织物空气分配系统。本系统集新风过滤、静电除尘、防雾、光催化剂灭菌、脱甲醛VOC、恒温恒湿终端等多种空气处理设备和设施。印刷间设有独立的排风设备。最健康的室内空气环境取决于本项目的综合通风和空调系统。整个空间没有边界，没有焦点，无限扩展，为用户提供了和平和轻松的建筑体验。空间始终处于正压环境中（类似于机舱），完全与室外不健康的大气隔离。茶区还采用直管加水器、抗菌铜管、水龙头，保证水质。

Physical Wellness The intermediate level of health is physical wellness. The office furniture that can rise and fall, the ground with flexible material, the gym with bright sunshine have largely alleviated the office syndrome.

身体健康的中间层次是身体健康。能升降的办公家具，弹性材料的地面，阳光明媚的健身房，大大缓解了办公室综合症。

Mental Well-being The third level of health is Mental Well-being, which is mostly considered by the designer. The whole Office is a single space with flexible and comfortable desks in order to create free and equal working atmospheres. There are several soundproof phone booths randomly distributed in the open space which also can be used as private working units. There are a number of different forms of closed units interspersed in the open office area which provide meeting and communicating area. This design meets fast all the needs of the modern workspace. Maternal and child rooms and toilets for the disabled illustrate the enterprise’s care for humanity. The designer uses natural and pure colors to interpret the design concept: “Shang Shan Ruo Shui”. The whole space has no boundary, no focus and is infinitely extended and provides the users with a peaceful and relaxing environmental experience. On the date of completion acceptance, key air indexes such as pm2.5/pm10 and VOC was close to zero.

心理健康的第三个层次是心理健康，这主要是设计师所考虑的。整个办公室是一个单独的空间，有灵活舒适的办公桌，以创造自由和平等的工作氛围。有几个隔音电话亭随机分布在开放的空间，也可以作为私人单位使用。在开放的办公区域内有许多不同形式的封闭单元，它们提供会议和交流区域。这种设计快速满足了现代工作空间的所有需求。妇幼室和残疾人厕所体现了企业对人类的关怀。设计师用自然纯色来诠释“上山若水”的设计理念。整个空间没有边界，没有焦点，是无限延伸，为用户提供了一个和平和放松的环境体验。在竣工验收之日，PM2.5/PM 10和VOC等关键空气指标接近于零。
