This is a creative space for up-and-coming entrepreneurs to exchange ideas,formulate plans and convert this into results.
Previously a warehouse used for roasting coffee,these up and-coming entrepreneurs coordinated a renovation to create a shared space.
The layout encompass individual working spaces; however open tables without partitions have been used. This achieves the initial aim of creating a space in which members can actively collaborate together in an open manner.
In addition,we have created an open-use meeting space,featuring a large touch-panel display and a utility space including a kitchen and toilet.
A characteristic angled ceiling and a high side light provides soft lighting for an open space.
