The theme of this project dictated by the client was a laboratory to create new product ideas. We conceived a chaotic space that can increase creativity with an open and free environment in terms of both architecture and the mind, and emit a kind of diverse energy from the interactions of people across the organization. It is not a haphazard chaos, but a reasonably controlled chaotic environment with a desire for serendipity. To this end, each floor plan is staggered by skipping in a non-uniform manner, thereby creating an unexpected new space, action, flow of people, and line of vision loss and gaps in floors so that we can expect an appropriate level of distance.
We designed conflicting elements, such as the laboratory, office, bar lounge, private room, and sky garden, coexisting in precise balance, the aspects of which include concentration against release, as well as stress against comfort with the aim of providing depth and pleasure out of entering into multiple rooms.
