Cocone | Post-Covid Office | LESS Architects

This interior project was designed in response to the changing needs of workplaces due to the Covid19 pandemic. The project involves redesigning office layouts to create wide, open floor plans that facilitate communication, sharing, and teamwork. The space is divided by function and adapted based on people's behavior within the space.

The main concept of the project is to superimpose different spaces vertically, dividing the space into an upper and lower level. The lower level is designed for various uses, including personal workstations, meeting rooms, canteen, and lounge. The upper level is a defined small space for an individual, which is superimposed vertically to create a flexible space for various uses.

The upper level defines the quality of the space by changing the atmosphere of the space through design, light, and sound. It was inspired by the traditional way of composing wood structure, and changing the density of the wood structure was important in creating a light boundary for people while not disturbing the actual function on the floor level.

People can find functional places by the lower space design, which is the workstation layout, chair, and electric issue, and they can find the aesthetic place by the upper space design based on the atmosphere and design of the wood structure, light, and sound.

The office life is designed to be flexible, with people able to choose the place for work in the day and play in the night. This is done by changing the light conditions and atmosphere from the upper space design, which is a continuously changing space to adapt to use. People can find places that are proper places to work in the day, which provide deep and focused space for an individual, video-conferencing in a media room, and meetings in conference rooms or collective working rooms.
Overall, this interior project creates a dynamic and adaptable workspace that responds to the changing needs of modern office life.
