有一天，办公室可能会扩大，以支持更多的工作和挑战，这与办公室成员的增加有关，他们需要适当的工作空间。为了支持这种扩展，建筑环境是需要关注的第一个标准。特别是对于像 “Apostrophys “这样的多学科，其新的办公空间 “Apos2 “必须三思。
Working as the office in someday, it may be expand for support more amount and challenging of work that related to increasing of office members who need appropriate space for work. For supporting this expansion, built environment is the first criterion to be concern. Especially for the multi-disciplinary as “Apostrophys” whose new office space “Apos2” have to think twice.
根据现有的总部办公室位于名为 “Town Home “的住房开发项目中，该项目通常位于泰国的黄金地段。它是一个混合使用的建筑，作为居民和办公室。它有三层楼，有一个条形的空间，而且大楼周围的空间很有限。因此，不可能在现有场地上进行扩建。此外，由于时间和建筑成本的限制，在更大的场地上建造一座新的建筑不是一个好的选择。由于这个原因，我们提出了 “Apos2 “的设计概念，其灵感来自于 “植物的发芽”，在其母体的根部附近有一个新芽。它类似于 “Apos2 “也位于其总部附近的同一个住宅区，允许他们举行会议或共享一些必要的设施，如学习媒体、设计材料或一些特殊设备，而无需重复或额外购买。
According to the existing headquarter office is located in housing development called “Town Home” which has been found in a prime area of Thailand usually. It is a mixed used building as a resident and office. There are 3 floor with a striped space and a limited space surround the building. So, it is impossible to do expansion on the existing site. Furthermore, to build a new building on a bigger site is not a good choice because of time and constructional cost limitation. Due to this reason is contribute a design concept of “Apos2” that inspired from a “Sprouting of a plant”, there is a new sprout near its mothers’ root. It is similar to “Apos2” also located near its headquarter at the same housing development, allow them to have a meeting or share some essential facilities such as learning-media, design material or some special equipment without duplicated or additional purchased.
对于现在办公室的急剧增长，时间是需要关注的主要因素。花费太多的时间来设计和建造一个新的办公室可能会影响到增长和效率。”Apos2 “可以作为 “即时办公室 “的原型，使用 “敲打 “结构的简单技术和一般的建筑材料，如角钢、胶合板、基本配件，用一般的油漆颜色进行装饰。这个设计没有任何部分影响或附着在现有的建筑表面，所以它是一个灵活的空间，可以在未来搬走或进行改造。此外，这是一个适合作为 “多学科 “工作的空间，即来自不同类型工作的专家在一起合作，有一个灵活的工作空间，这与 “Apos2 “中 “Square “的含义有关，它不仅意味着 “乘以一个数字”，还意味着 “一个多用途的公共区域”，正如这个空间的设计目标一样，以一个双重空间欢迎所有来自任何类型工作的专家。
For a dramatic growth rate of the office nowadays, time is the main factor to concern. Spending overmuch time to design and construct a new one may be effect the growth and efficiency. “Apos2” could be the prototype of “Instant Office” by using “Knock Down” structure assembly with a simple technique and general building material such as Angle bar, plywood, basic fitting, finishing with general painted color. There is not any part of this design that effect or attach the existing building surface, so it is a flexible space for move out or do a renovation at the future. Besides, it is an appropriate space for working as “Multi Disciplinary” which is a collaboration of the experts from the different kind of work together with a flexible scoop of work that related to the meaning of “Square” in “Apos2” which do not only mean “multiply a number by itself “ but also means“a multi-purpose public area” as same as the design objective of this space to welcome all the expert from any kind of works with a double space.
此外，”Apos2 “的另一个目标是成为一个学习企业文化和培训初学者的空间。鲜艳的原色被用作设计的核心，由红、蓝、黄三种纯色组成的光谱楼梯在每一层都有标记，自由的Typographic和俏皮的Pictogram说明了设计理念，被放置在墙上。巨大的吉祥物 “Aposer “的形象是一个胖子，有两个侧面。在左边，它被无数色彩斑斓的糖果填满，有不同的字符和面孔，而另一边显示了内部器官，如骨骼、嘴巴、肠子、大脑和心脏，这些都是由 “Aposer “一词组成的，代表着团结和对工作目标的雄心。这个幽默的 “Aposer “被设计为连接二楼和三楼之间的双高墙的垂直空间。对于空间规划，我们可以分为以下三个部分
Moreover, another objective of “Apos2” is to be a space for learning a corporate culture and training for the beginner. Vivid primary color have been used as a core of design, consisting of 3 pure colors red, blue and yellow have been mark in each level link by a spectrum staircase as well as free hand Typographic and playful Pictogram which illustrate about design philosophy has been placed on the wall. Spotting to a giant mascot name “Aposer” figure as a fat man with has 2 sides separately. On the left side, it is fulfilled with numerous colorful candy with different characters and face while another side showed the internal organs such as the skeleton, mouth, intestine, brain and heart those are composing from the word “Aposer” which represent unity and ambition to the goal of work. This humorous meaningful “Aposer” was figured to link the vertical space on a double height wall at the landing between 2nd and 3rd floor. For the space planning, we can categorized into 3 part as following
1. 第一步–复古的霓虹灯已经被放置在入口处的红色墙上。然后，进入一楼的区域被设计成一个接待大厅和咖啡厅，供官员或客人使用。墙上有椅子和长桌，下面是一个阁楼钢柜。红色是最有力的暖色调，因此，它被用来激发活力，刺激客人的兴奋和工作人员在第一步就表达他们的热情。
1. First Step – The retro neon sign has been placed on a hot red wall at the entrance. Then, entering to the first floor area has been design to be a reception hall and cafe for whether officer or guest. There are chairs and long desk along the wall beneath a loft steel cabinet. Red is the most powerful warm tone color so, it has been use to energized, and stimulated a guest to be excite and staff to express their enthusiasm at the first step.
2. 继续前进 – 二楼被设计为工作区，称为 “Aposer Room”，以蓝色为标志，使这个空间平静、安宁和稳定。这是一个开放式的办公室，所有的工作桌都是面对面摆放的，以便让他们有一些讨论。一幅巨大的字体 “There is no “I” in TEAM but there is in WIN “被挂在墙上，以提醒所有员工降低他们的自尊心，然后通过合作或讨论来解决问题或任何冲突。
2. Keep Going – the second floor has been designed for working area called “Aposer Room”, marked by a blue, to make this space is calm, tranquility and stable. It is a open plan office, all working desk have been placed facing each others to allow them to have some discuss. A huge typographic phase “There is no “I” in TEAM but there is in WIN” have been place on the wall dominantly to remind all staff to cut down their self-esteem, then collaborated or have discussion to solve the problem or any conflict.
3. 3.继续–而三楼是最后一层，但不是最后的工作，这一层已经实现了 “头脑风暴室 “和行政室。它以明亮的黄色为标志，照亮了空间，并可能引发创造性的思维，以及关于工作发展的类型化阶段，以告知初级工作人员和执行官员。
3. To be Continue- whereas the third floor is the last level but is not the last of work, this floor has been realized for “Brain Storming Room” and executive room. It marked by a bright yellow to light up the space and may be spark the creative thinking as well as the typographic phase about working development to inform both beginner staff and executive officers.
总之，还有另一个创造性的解决方案来扩大现有的办公室，没有高成本或长期的建设。”Apos2 “可以作为一个原型，在土地成本高和城市密集的情况下，在其现有的总部附近造成一个萌芽的办公室。这个喷口比它的母亲更新鲜、更新颖、成长得更快，采用的是一种简单的材料和建筑技术，但它仍然可以保留它母亲的DNA，这是一种工作哲学，可以在 “Apos2 “的每个细节中看到。
In conclusion, there are another creative solution to expand the existing office without high cost or long term of construction. “Apos2” can be the prototype, in the event of high cost of the land and dense in the city, causes a Sprouting office near its existing headquarter. This spout is fresher, newer and grow faster than its mother with a simple kind of material and construction technique, but it can still preserve its DNA of its mother that is a philosophy of work which can be seen in every detail in “Apos2”
