office interior design vector

today's office environments place more andmore emphasis on collaboration as their guiding principle -- doing away with the idea of splittingup teams into their own compartmentalized areas and encouraging a cross fertilizationof ideas instead. when setting the brief for its new premisesin shanghai, envision asked for a specific control room within the office for its engineersdealing with problems in the field. it's a global technology company, specializingin wind turbine technology, and so the office also needed to operate around the clock. but interior design firm m moser associatescame up with a scheme that brought the engineers out into the open, so giving them better accessto their support teams.

the design expanded so the entire space becamethe control centre, with a large display wall at one end. everyone can see this -- so the whole officecan help resolve a problem that is projected onto the wall. the concept of collaboration also influencedthe way the office is organized. picking up on the physics of airstreams, mmoser has designed a space that allows freedom of movement through it and encourages the75 staff members to work both individually and in team environments. the hi-tech nature of the business is reflectedin the sleek design of the workstations that

have some of the characteristics of wind turbines. but for me, what really stands out in thisworkspace is the huge, central conference table sitting on the key axis of the office. it's directly in front of the giant wall screens,ideally placed for company video conferences. and in keeping with the nature of the business,it has a strongly aerodynamic form which also extends to the bulkheads above and surroundingit. overall m moser has created an interior designfor envision that's fully in tune with the company's business, while at the same timeencouraging a much more inclusive and collaborative way for staff to interact.
