The spatial arrangement takes cues from its surrounding elements; the breakout spaces, dine-in kitchen, and living garden facing the luscious hillside backdrop. The workspace with desks and private meeting rooms showcasing the city’s panorama. The living indoor garden lies beautifully against the expansive windows, capturing the city’s panorama and adding a natural atmosphere inside the workspace.

Spanning 1,000 m2, this building features alcove garden seating and a dining kitchen, which serves as a multifunctional space for a flexible meeting workspace, event venue, cocktail bar, and dining room. The ash-gray and charcoal tone against the use of reflective bright aluminum graces the kitchen, contrasting with the vibrant greenery and giving a nod to the neighborhood's industrial past. A series of fun and luxurious theater marquee lights hang on the ceiling above the kitchen island, evoking the feeling of a ‘bar stage’ that enhances the social interaction between each user.
