The new Cathay Symphox office strikes a balance between simplicity, efficiency, and impact, reflecting the company’s organizational culture rather than emulating the trend of office playgrounds.
With a “less is more” approach, the design prioritizes productivity, motivation, and flexibility, supporting daily operations while fostering casual and creative interactions. The layout seamlessly integrates open work areas for collaboration, private and semi-private spaces for focused tasks, and dynamic common areas that encourage spontaneous connections.
Capitalizing on the panoramic city views, the workstations are positioned diagonally towards the windows, creating a dynamic and engaging floor plan. The meeting room features mirrored walls that softly reflect the surroundings, enhancing the openness of the space.
