Head Interiors l 南非Dimension Data辦公室-設計風向

Head Interiors為位於南非約翰內斯堡的信息技術公司Dimension Data設計了辦公室。Dimension Data公司是一家誕生於非洲的係統集成商和托管服務提供商，致力於設計，管理和優化當今不斷發展的技術環境，以使其客戶能夠在數字時代利用數據。當現有的會議套件需要升級時，創建Dimension Data公司可以與其他公司高管交互的空間的機會就出現了。舊的建築空間僅提供正式的會議室設置，很少有供訪客使用的非正式區域。為此，翻新了約550平方米的雙層辦公區。

Head Interiors has created the office design for information technology company, Dimension Data, located in Johannesburg, South Africa.Dimension Data is an African born systems integrator and managed services provider that designs, manages, and optimizes today’s evolving technology environments to enable its clients to leverage data in a digital age. The opportunity to create a space where Dimension Data could interact with executives from other companies presented itself when an existing meeting suite was due for an upgrade. The old space only provided formal meeting room settings, with very little informal areas for visitors.Around 550m² of double volume office area was completely refurbished for this purpose.

Head Interiors設計的出發點是創建一個保持執行標準的空間，同時為多媒體演示提供多種非正式互動的機會。多媒體演示展示了該公司必須講述的許多成功故事。為了使居民能夠使用Dimension數據，創建了多個輕鬆的設置-所有這些設置都具有訪問權限和機會進行數字演示。

Head Interiors set out to create a space that maintains an executive standard, while providing multiple opportunities for informal interaction – all around multimedia presentations. The multimedia presentations showcase the many success stories the company has to tell. To enable the residents from Dimension data, multiple relaxed settings were created – all of them with access and opportunity for digital presentation.

設計的核心是一張帶有相鄰咖啡吧台的超大餐桌。通過熱情好客，客人和員工都可以探索聯係和互動的新途徑。酒吧隱藏在一扇滑動門後麵，這與裝飾牆麵無縫融合，可以根據需要隨時進入。為了讓客人有機會接聽和撥打私人電話，兩個小的私人隔間被安置在中央用餐區的兩端。用餐區還延伸到露台上，可欣賞西北地平線的全景以及夏季標誌性的約翰內斯堡日落。

At the heart of the design is an over sized dining table with an adjacent coffee bar. Through hospitality, new avenues of connection and interaction can be explored by guests and staff alike. A drinks bar is concealed behind a sliding door that seamlessly blends into the decorative wall cladding – to be accessed as and when needed. In order to give guests the opportunity to take and make private phone calls, two small private booths have been positioned on either end of the central dining area. The dining area also spills out onto a patio, with a panoramic view of the north western horizon and the iconic Johannesburg sunsets of summer.

該設施還提供兩個正式和兩個非正式會議室。正式會議室分別可容納24人和8人。第一個非正式會議室設置為L形，前麵配有低矮的長椅座位和收納筐。另一些參與者可以坐在櫃台前，繞過L形長凳的背麵。這是一個讓一小群人合作的親密環境。第二個非正式會議設施設置在一個移動展廳中，以容納更多的觀眾。所有的露天坐墊都是可堆疊的，可以移到一邊，為其他活動騰出空間。

The facility further provides two formal and two informal meeting rooms. The formal meeting rooms seat 24 and 8 people respectively. The first informal meeting room is set up in a L-shape configuration with low bench seating and bean bags in front. Another tier of participants can be seated at a counter wrapping around the back of the L-shape bench. It is an intimate setting for small groups of people to collaborate.The second informal meeting facility is set up in a mobile pavilion configuration to accommodate a larger audience. All bleachers are stack-able and can be moved to the side to free up space for other activities.
