Balbek Bureau | 基輔軟件公司Grammarly辦公室-設計風向

位於基輔的軟件公司Grammarly辦公室內有工作、休息和娛樂的空間，其中包括他們自己的會議廳、午睡艙和隔音音樂室。該辦公室占據了基輔一幢14層高的建築的前兩層樓。由當地建築師Balbek Bureau設計，以容納Grammarly日益壯大的員工隊伍。

There’s room for work, rest and play inside software company Grammarly’s office in Kiev, which includes its own conference hall, nap pods, and a soundproof music room.The office occupies the top two floors of a 14-storey building in Kiev and has been designed by locally-based architects Balbek Bureau to accommodate the growing workforce of Grammarly.

Grammarly成立於2008年，是一款計算機軟件，可幫助用戶實時檢查其在線書麵內容的拚寫，語法和剽竊情況。位於基輔的辦公室是它的第三個辦事處，加入了舊金山和紐約的陣營。

Founded in 2008, Grammarly is computer software that helps users check their online written content for spelling, grammar and plagiarism in real time. This is its third office, joining bases in San Francisco and New York.

該公司希望其烏克蘭辦公室擁有一係列適合各種工作和辦公活動的多功能空間。因此，Balbek Bureau在這個1300平方米的較低樓層中布置了大型玻璃幕牆會議室，開放式辦公桌以及配有演講台的中央會議廳。

The company wanted its Ukrainian outpost to boast a number of versatile spaces that would suit various styles of work and office activities. Balbek Bureau has thus arranged the 1,300 square-metre lower level to include large, glass-fronted boardrooms, open desks, and a central conference hall complete with a speaker podium.

該辦公室的幾個角落還配備了扶手椅或豆袋座椅，員工可以在那裏休息或舉行非正式會議。如果員工想要獨處或安靜的工作時間，他們可以去隻有一到兩個人的小包廂。

Several of the office’s nooks have also been dressed with armchairs or beanbag-style seats where staff can lounge or have informal meetings. Should employees want privacy or quiet time for work, they can head to smaller box rooms that have been created to host just one or two people.

這一層的娛樂區域包括餐廳、圖書館和隔音室，隔音室可用於觀看視頻或演奏樂器。

Recreational areas at this level include a canteen, library, and a soundproof room that can be used to watch videos or play musical instruments.

這條人行道由25噸重的金屬製成，沒有地麵支撐，而是用細杆吊在天花板上。工作室解釋說:“它將辦公室的各個功能區統一成一個單一的生命周期或節奏。它也成為基輔、紐約和舊金山辦公室之間不可分割聯係的有力象征。”

Made from 25 tonnes of metal, the walkway has no ground support but is instead suspended from the ceiling by slim poles.”It unites various functional zones of the office into a single life cycle or rhythm,” explained the studio.”It has also become a powerful symbol of the inseparable connection between Grammarly offices in Kyiv, New York, and San Francisco.”

樓上還有一個舒適的座位區，中心是一個壁爐，還有幾個四四方方的空間，用作午睡室。每個床墊下麵都安裝了一個重量傳感器，這樣員工一躺下，就會亮起象征睡眠的三個z，讓其他人知道這個空間被占用了。

Upstairs also has a cosy seating zone centred by a firepit, and a handful of boxy volumes that serve as nap rooms.A weight sensor has been fitted underneath each of the mattresses so that as soon as an employee lies down, a sleep symbol of three Zs is illuminated and lets others know that the space is occupied.

空間所有的表麵都被塗上了暖色調，如粉紅色、藍綠色或奶油黃色，以營造一種更誘人的氛圍。一些隔牆也采用天然橡木板材包裹，並配有綠植。

Surfaces throughout have been painted warm shades like blush pink, teal blue, or butter yellow to foster a more inviting atmosphere. Some partition walls are also clad in planks of natural oak wood and fronted with greenery-filled planters.

白色的樓梯通向450平方米的夾層，通過90米長的蜿蜒走道連接到更放鬆的工作區域。

White staircases lead up to the 450 square-metre mezzanine level, which plays host to more relaxed work areas connected via a 90 metre-long winding walkway.
