C&C Design Creative Headquarters

Office Space

The inspiration of the design originates from the tranquility of nature. The Chinese elements of bamboo and brick walls mark the spatial dimension of the design, while symbols of modern architecture such as cement and glass add a touch of modernity. This integration of materiality and affectivity creates a harmonious environment for both the space and the people within it.

C&C Design, a young design company in Guangzhou, China, has transformed a post-industrial workshop into their creative headquarters. The building, originally a red-brick factory from the 1960s, has been preserved in its current state, with minimal damage done during the interior decoration process. The interior design incorporates a lot of fir and bamboo, cleverly utilizing the opening and closing of spaces. Different regions within the headquarters feature unique lighting designs, creating distinct visual atmospheres.

The design is realized using cedar finger jointed board, industrial self-leveling, and bamboo. The office space spans 600 square meters and was completed between August and October 2013 in Guangzhou.

The design of the headquarters posed the challenge of utilizing a post-industrial building to create an environmentally-friendly office environment. By preserving the original structure and incorporating sustainable materials, C&C Design successfully achieved this goal.

The C&C Design Creative Headquarters was awarded the Silver A' Design Award in 2014 in the Interior Space, Retail, and Exhibition Design category. This prestigious award recognizes designs that demonstrate outstanding expertise, innovation, and artistic skill. The headquarters exemplifies excellence and evokes positive emotions, amazement, and wonder.
