Big and Tiny于2018年7月推出,是圣莫尼卡一个独特的丰富空间,为父母和孩子培养生产力、创造力和社区。它是第一个以创业型父母为中心的综合学习、娱乐和工作空间。我们将传统联合办公空间的灵活性带入儿童保育领域。
公司的使命是通过帮助父母整合个人和职业生活,支持并赋予我们充满活力的父母社区。基于这个前提,Big and Tiny的设计同时考虑到了成人和儿童。

Launched in July 2018, Big and Tiny is a unique enrichment space in Santa Monica that fosters productivity, creativity, and community for both parents and kids. It is the first integrated learn, play and work space with entrepreneurial parents in mind. We bring the flexibility of traditional co-working spaces to child care.
The mission of the company is to support and empower our vibrant community of parents by helping them integrate their personal and professional lives. Based on this premise, Big and Tiny was designed with both adults and children in mind.

我们从一个2,100平方英尺的空地开始,其中的主角是高高的木质弓形桁架天花板,它横向限制了空间。这些桁架最终会将空间划分为三个独立的区域,中间的区域是最主要的空间。

We began with an empty 2,100 sq. foot space where the main protagonist is the high wood bow truss ceiling that limits the space transversely. These trusses would eventually divide the space into three separate areas with the middle one being the predominant space.

前面的空间是咖啡和零售区,而中间的区域(也是项目的核心),则是孩子们的游乐场。最隐蔽的第三个区域作为成人的联合办公空间。
以原有的桁架吊顶为例,作为一种通用的几何语言,我们创造了一个重复的模块化和建设性的系统,让我们想起了拼图。这个适应性强的系统在三个区域都创造了吸引人的立面。

The front space features a coffee and retail area, while the middle area (and core of the project), is a playground for kids. The most secluded third area serves as a co-working space for adults.
Using the original truss ceiling as an example of a universal geometric language, we created a repetitive modular and constructive system, that remind us of a puzzle. This adaptable system creates appealing elevations in all the three areas.

前面的接待/零售区是一个多功能的空间,墙上有定制的铁艺家具,后面有一个柜台。
模块化和可移动的立方体是由10×10的瓷砖制成的,粉色和蓝色是品牌的色调。这样就可以根据不同的需求灵活配置空间。

The front reception/retail area is a multipurpose space with bespoke iron furniture on the walls and a counter in the back.
The modular and movable cubes are made out of 10×10 ceramic tiles in pink and blue which is the brands’ color palette. This offers the flexibility to configure the space according to different needs.

零售区包括铁架和货架,使用相同的几何语言。

The retail area includes iron shelves and racks using same geometric language.

主要的中央空间呈现在一个大型木质结构内。这个区域被分为两个部分。游乐场,或 “Tinyland”,包括木制的游戏结构,如球坑和滑梯;以及艺术工作室,孩子们在这里做艺术项目和参加其他丰富的课程。

The main central space is presented inside a large wooden structure. This area is divided in two parts: The playground, or “Tinyland”, includes wooden play structures such as the ball pit and slide; and the art studio, where children work on their art projects and take other enrichment classes.

第三个,也是最后一个区域,位于大木头结构和户外天井之间,是为我们的联合办公成员准备的。这个空间里有来自Normann Cophenhagen的办公家具和ROOM的隔音电话。

The third and final area, located between the big wooden structure and the outdoor patio, is reserved for our co-working members. This space features office furniture from Normann Cophenhagen and a soundproof phone both by ROOM.
