Office 030 with its open plan and greenery in abundance along with natural ventilating pockets, engages all users to the interiors creating a good working atmosphere, allowing interactions among-st users yet keeping privacy intact. 

Through the process of experimenting with the roof structure, light shelves became a part of design which eventually  led to have light filled space throughout the day. The entire structure is lifted up visually creating a floating appeal. Adding a corner window breaks the entire mass complimenting the light shelf resonating with the materials of the roof. The entrance porch was intentionally tilted inviting users to the space.

Approach to the interior of the office is directed by shaping the volume upon entering the porch, leaving you to an industrial huge sliding metal door. The lounge housing a soft reception counter a planter and materials resonating with the rest of the office. The open shelf behaves as a screen partially. Upon entering the inside, one gets a glimpse of the entire space primarily taken away by the tree court puncturing the entire mass which lets in good light & air flow to the insides.
