Revolutionizing Office Spaces: Poly K18 Office Building

Golden Ho Ming Leung's Award-Winning Design Transforms Traditional Workplaces

The Poly K18 Office Building is uniquely designed to adapt to the fast-paced rhythm of the modern technological era. The traditional nine-to-five office model is replaced with an open, flexible workspace that encourages interaction and diversification. The design removes closed walls, allowing the workspace to be open and adaptable, reflecting the evolving needs of today's workforce.

The office building, covering an area of 660 square meters, is characterized by its narrow, rectangular shape. The entrance lacks depth, leading the designers to utilize the spatial characteristics of horizontal extension. Surrounded by floor-to-ceiling glass on three sides, each functional area can fully enjoy the outside world's layout, creating a sense of openness and connection with the surrounding environment.

The design's unique properties are further highlighted by the use of glass texture and luminous blocks, creating an ambiguous relationship that separates the space. This approach breaks away from traditional office designs, creating a sense of technological transparency and openness. The open, fuzzy media partitions achieve a filtering effect, further enhancing the space's unique characteristics.

The design process involved significant research, drawing inspiration from the skyline of the bustling city of Wuhan. The designers used the local city high-rise buildings to create an association between the city and the office space, evolving into a mixed box that allowed the wooden box to develop horizontally, creating different functional areas.

The Poly K18 Office Building design faced several challenges, primarily the transition from closed to open office spaces. The design aimed to stimulate work efficiency and creativity, building an innovative future experience for the premises. Despite these challenges, the design was successful, earning the prestigious Golden A' Interior Space, Retail and Exhibition Design Award in 2017.

The Poly K18 Office Building is a testament to Golden Ho Ming Leung's innovative approach to design. It represents a significant step forward in office design, offering a flexible, open workspace that fosters interaction and efficiency. With its unique design and prestigious recognition, the Poly K18 Office Building is set to inspire future office designs worldwide.
