It’s not often a design firm gets to go back and check in on past projects. Usually, we visit a few weeks after move-in, but it’s rare that we get to see a space a few years later. Meraki’s expansion to a new floor offered an opportunity to observe how the company had grown into (or in this case out of) the space Studio O A designed for it four years ago. Rapid growth is a good thing, but it comes with its own challenges: too many workstations, not enough storage. For Meraki’s new space, we put strategies in place that will make the future more manageable.

通常情况下，设计公司不会回去查看过去的项目。通常情况下，我们在入住几周后就会去拜访，但很少能在几年后看到一个空间。梅拉基扩建到一个新的楼层，提供了一个机会来观察公司是如何成长为四年前为之设计的空间工作室OA(或者在这个例子中是走出的)。快速增长是一件好事，但它也伴随着自身的挑战：工作站太多，存储不足。对于梅拉基的新空间，我们制定的策略将使未来更易于管理。

Cisco Meraki Office – Space for today, space for tomorrow O A’s project for Meraki 2nd Floor provided a “Day 1” plan for instant implementation as well as a “Maximum Capacity” plan for long-term growth. We located graphics and conference rooms in a way that would prevent workstations from getting crammed into every corner and keep circulation paths clear. In each of five workstation neighborhoods, we placed custom full height storage doors to prevent clutter and provide dramatic color interventions.

思科梅拉基办公室-为今天的空间，明天的空间为美拉基二楼的项目提供了一个“第一天”计划的即时实施，以及“最大容量”的长期增长计划。我们定位图形和会议室的方式，可以防止工作站挤进每个角落，并保持流通路径清晰。在五个工作站社区的每一个，我们放置自定义的全高度存储门，以防止杂乱，并提供戏剧性的色彩干预。

Variations on a theme of connectivity If we devised the floorplan to allow for organic growth, we made materials and finish selections in coordination with what had been done before. While none of the designers who worked on Meraki 4th Floor in 2013 worked on Meraki 2nd Floor in 2017, the new team recognized the need for cohesion between the two floors and approached the new design not exactly as an homage but perhaps as a variation on a theme. That theme being Meraki’s mission of connectivity and illumination as embodied by its sparkling Bayside location.

如果我们设计了考虑有机增长的地板计划，我们就会根据以前的做法制作材料和完成选择。2013年在美拉基四楼工作的设计师中，没有一人在2017年在美拉基二楼工作，但新团队认识到，两层楼之间需要凝聚力，因此对新设计的处理并不完全是一种敬意，而是对主题的一种变异。这个主题是梅拉基的使命，连接和照明，体现在它闪闪发光的贝赛德的位置。

Just like her sister Using some of the same materials and colors from Floor 4, but using them in different patterns and combinations, Floor 2 took on a distinct personality of its own while bearing a younger sibling’s resemblance to its older predecessor. With bold, geometric graphics spanning the entire core of the building and those colorful storage walls giving each department its own chromatic signature the palette of the space is again a celebration.

就像她的妹妹一样，在4楼使用相同的材质和颜色，但在不同的图案和组合中使用它们时，地板2拥有了自己独特的个性，同时有一个更年轻的同辈的前任。采用醒目的几何图案，横跨整个建筑核心，以及那些彩色的储存墙，为每个部门提供自己的色标，空间的调色板再次是一次庆祝活动。

Playful in the Paint Two locations stand out—the logo brand wall at the entrance to the office and an extruded graphic wall at the stair use light and shadow to create an architectural moment with the impact of fine art. Throughout the space the play of color and natural light creates an environment attuned to buoyant spirits and bright ideas.

在油漆中嬉戏的有两个地方-办公室入口处的标志品牌墙和楼梯上的挤出来的平面墙-利用光线和阴影创造出一个具有艺术影响的建筑瞬间。在整个空间中，色彩和自然光的发挥创造了一个与活泼的精神和光明的思想相协调的环境。
