数字社交时尚
Fashion based on digital social media
伴随科技发展，虚拟世界在人类生活的比重越来越高，手机作为最常见的进场钥匙，是每个人生活的必需品。因此对于未来手机的设想，引领着集团旗下对于包品类设计的思考。过去包装万物，如今只需要装得下手机，而未来的包可能只作为装饰品的存在。得益于古良文化提出的“数字社交时尚”理念，say也对全新打造的集团空间提出了“探寻城市办公边界”的概念。
The virtual world plays a more and more crucial part in human life along with the rapid development of science and technology. In such a background, mobile phones have become the indispensable items for people to enter such digital world. Therefore, the prospecting and conception related to mobile phones in the future will trigger the pondering of the group on bags design. Everything is wrapped in bags in the past, however, bags are merely required to hold a mobile phone now. In the future, they will just be the decorative accessories. Say architects also proposes the concept specified as “exploring the edge of the urban working” for the group space which has been newly constructed regarding to the “fashion based on digital social media” concept proposed by WARM STUDIO.

传统办公空间以产值为目标，人均享有面积仅在工位内部，而随着企业用工年轻化，应对不同工种、不同年龄结构的工作模式也在悄然发生变化。首先基于工作的自由度，场地由内而外被分为三个椭圆环带，分别对应FREE WORK（自由办公）, BASIC WORK（基础办公）, NO WORK（无办公）三块区域。
BASIC WORK（基础办公）：包含了六大部门，104个固定工位，维持了日常办公形式。
FREE WORK（自由办公）：由一条位于场地中心的顺时针环形流线，配合不同的部门需求，携带了不同的辅助空间，其中包含了接待、短会、讨论、策展、用餐等多功能空间。
NO WORK（无办公）：由建筑主动式遮阳所创造的建筑外廊，被两条跑道所覆盖，用于员工非工作时间的休闲锻炼职能。

In terms of the traditional office space, it takes output value as the objective, which makes the per capita area limited inside each work unit. Nonetheless, the current working modes for different work categories and different age groups are undergoing gradual transformations with the youth-oriented employment in companies. Firstly, the space is further split into three elliptical belts from inside to the outside dimensions on the basis of work freedom which are respectively the FREE WORK, BASIC WORK and NO WORK accordingly.
BASIC WORK: it further contains six major departments and 104 fixed units whose daily office forms are basically maintained.
FREE WORK: it is consisted by a clockwise circular flow line which is located in the center and used for meeting the demands of different departments, as well as carrying different auxiliary spaces, including various multi-functional spaces for reception, short meeting, discussion, exhibition planning, meal and so on.
NO WORK: it is based on the veranda created for active sunlight shading which is covered by two runways. They play the parts of leisure and exercise for employees in off-work hours.

办公室的中央广场
Central plaza for office
走出电梯厅，即可视作进入了城市的中央广场，对称的路灯引领着人跟着轴线进入到城市中心。墙面灵感来源于旗下的陶陶包，对称且圆润的外形，内折的缝线，暗藏五金件，最大程度消解了人为痕迹，而say将这些包包元素做成了广场中的城市肌理，裁片般的墙体在阴角处平等内收，阳角处圆润打磨，场地生成的逻辑无一不透露着品牌制包的理念。
When you enter the elevator hall, you are seemingly within the central square of the city. Then, the symmetrical street lights will lead people to the city center along the axis. The inspiration for the creation of wall surface comes from Taotao bags of the group. There are symmetrical and round shapes, the folded seams with hardware hidden inside, which is able to eliminate the human traces to the greatest extent. These bag elements are made into the urban texture in the square by say architects. Moreover, the cut-parts of walls are equally folded by the internal corners while they are polished well by the external corners. Nearly all the design logic on site is the manifestation of brand bags manufacturing.

进门右转的是FREE WORK区域的第一个广场节点，由两扇子母屏风围合的一个休息空间，在接待客人的同时，也承担小型讨论的功能，到了夜幕来临，在漫反射的照射下，也成为了广场中心的公共艺术。
There is the first node of square for FREE WORK by the right side of the door and it is the space for break enclosed by two parent-child screens. When functioning as the space for guest reception, it also functions as small discussion area. At night, it is considered as the public art in the square center in diffuse reflection environment.

自由灵活的办公区域
The free and flexible office region
首先到达的是市场部和电商部的FREE WORK区域，连续的隔断墙体为小组决策讨论或电话会议提供了相对私密的空间，同时也为进入办公区域的长廊营造出冷静平和的空间氛围。
The first area reached is the FREE WORK area for the marketing and E-commerce departments. The continuous partition walls provide a relatively private space for group decision-making discussions or conference calls, while creating a calm and peaceful spatial atmosphere for the promenade stretching into the office area.

FREEWORK和BASICWORK区域之间由几个玻璃盒子组成，半透明的隔断玻璃既保证了良好的采光，又创造了稳定的私密空间。
效率对于企业来讲是隐性的重要因素，透明的决策，流通的信息都会无形增加企业轮转的效率，BASIC WORK区域所有的实墙表面均由毛毡板覆盖，为各部门提供了可视化的信息流通方案。
The area between FREE WORK and BASIC WORK consists of several glass boxes with translucent partition glass to ensure good light and create a stable private space.
Efficiency is an implicitly crucial factor for companies. Transparent decision making and circulation of information invariably increase the efficiency of corporate rotation. All solid wall surfaces in the BASIC WORK area are covered by felt panels, which helps to provide a visual solution for the circulation of information in all departments.

广场中的社交机会
Social opportunities within the square
设计部连带板房位于广场的核心位置，部门的特殊性让其成为沿街联排小屋，有独立的门禁系统，但巨大的弧面玻璃窗又将创意和手作展现给广场上的观众。区别于传统的方形桌板，门口的波浪桌板如公园里的设施，不仅为设计研讨创造空间，更为古良社区提供了富有活力的社交方式。
The design department with its boardroom is located at the heart of the square. The special nature of the department makes it a townhouse along the street with a separate access control system, but the huge curved glass windows show the creativity and handicrafts to the audience in the square. Distinguished from the traditional square tables and panels, the wavy tables and panels at the entrance are like amenities in a park, creating space not only for design workshops, but also a vibrant way to socialize in the WARM STUDIO community.

以人为本的照明设计
Human-oriented lighting design
场地中的照明系统由YAANK lighting design设计，基于自然广场的环境，照明设计分别从自然光线、人本照明、可持续照明三个方面充分考虑员工需求塑造兼具功能性、舒适性、艺术性的照明环境。
The lighting system in the site is designed by YAANK lighting design. Based on the environment of the natural square, the lighting design takes into account the requirements of employees from three aspects: natural light, human-oriented lighting and sustainable lighting to shape a lighting environment that is functional, comfortable and artistic.
▼夜晚从庭院仰望办公室的光带

墙上的壁灯如同广场上的路灯，到了夜晚自动亮起3000K的暖光，通过天花和墙壁的漫反射为空间提供使用所需的照度。
模仿天光的内环照明系统被安置在幕墙一侧，这使得光线看起来是来自于窗外的，即使抬头看到灯具，也会有一种似乎是天窗的感觉。这种欺骗性的感官体验，从视觉和心里需求出发，对人的情绪和健康起到至关重要的作用，间接提升了生产力和创造力。
The wall lamps are similar to the street lamps in the square which can automatically light up at night with 3000K warm light effect, providing the space with the illumination degree through the diffuse reflection of the ceiling and walls.
The inner ring lighting system that mimics the sky light is placed on one side of the curtain wall, which makes the light appear to be coming from outside the window. Even when someone is looking up and seeing the fixture, there is still a feeling of skylight seemingly. This deceptive sensory experience plays a vital role in human mood and health from both visual and mental needs, indirectly enhancing productivity and creativity.

环绕FRRE WORK一圈的光环，不仅模拟了阳光的照明环境，同时意向衍生为一个正在充能的能量环，就像太阳东升西落一样，周而复始，能量源源不息。呼应了一天中的色温变化，色温、照度每隔一小时进行跑动变化，希望用灯光的视觉传达告诉每一位员工公司的发展离不开每一位员工，所有人都是这股能量的贡献者。
The light ring around FRRE WORK not only simulates the lighting environment of sunlight, but also create the feeling that the intention is derived as an energy ring being charged, just like the sun rising in the east and setting in the west with energy source coming endlessly. Echoing the change of color temperature in a day, the color temperature and illumination are changing every one hour. It is expected that the visual effect of lighting can tell every employee that the development of the company is closely related to each employee, so everyone is the contributor of the energy.

每个人都是这座城市的艺术家
Everyone is the artist in the city
在办公室外侧的灰空间是NOWORK区域，由一条塑胶跑道和两条硬质铺装路面构成，一端连接着办公室的各个出入口，另外一侧则是屋顶的景观平台。NOWORK为使用者提供了极佳的视野和有氧运动的活动场所。
透过玻璃幕墙的白云区山城界面，被极具线条张力的建筑曲线框成了一幅幅画，他们每个人在反复在画中穿梭，他们不仅是这些画的观众，更是这一幅幅画的创作者，城市日新月异的参与者。外廊的光影诉说着过去和未来，同时链接着城市和自然，极大程度上缓解了人们工作的压力。
The grey space outside the office is the NO WORK region, consisting of a plastic running track and two hard paved surfaces that connect the various entrances and exits of the office on one side and a landscaped roof deck on the other side. NO WORK provides users with excellent views and a place for aerobic activities.
The mountainous city images in Baiyun district are framed into paintings by the constructional curves with super tension through the glass curtain walls. Each one is going through repeatedly in the paintings, so they are not only the audience of these paintings, but also the creators of these paintings, as well as the participants in the city undergoing rapid changes day and night. The light and shadow of the outer corridor tell the past and the future of the city, link the city and nature at the same time, which can greatly relieve the working pressure of people.
