这个18,000 SF的总部是一个饮料生活配件设计师和经销商，位于西雅图市中心的一个现有的混凝土仓库内。

This 18,000 SF headquarters for a beverage lifestyle accessories designer and distributor is located in an existing concrete warehouse in central Seattle.

虽然提供了高高的天花板和不间断的开放计划，但仓库是一个冰冷的混凝土外壳，部分淹没在地形中，没有提供任何景观或自然光。这个项目的目标是将西雅图市中心的工业混凝土空间改造成一个繁荣的、以人为本的工作空间。

While providing high ceilings and an uninterrupted open plan, the warehouse was a cold concrete shell partially submerged in the terrain that provided no views or natural light. The goal of this project required the transformation of industrial concrete space in central Seattle into a thriving, people-centered workspace.

这是LOC的第一个创意办公室项目，一个拥有150名员工的18,000平方英尺的总部。我们流程的多功能性和设计方法的普遍性使我们能够大规模地承接新的项目类型。

This was the first creative office project for LOC, an 18,000 sqft headquarters for a staff of 150 people. The versatility of our process and the universality of our design approach allows us to take on new project types at scale.

这个精通设计的客户是一家饮料配件营销和品牌公司，他获得了这个12000平方英尺的仓库，打算将他们的员工从几个街区外的狭窄和迷宫般的办公室搬到这里。这个仓库提供了一个机会来创造一个可以容纳整个公司的大型合作性开放空间，但它是一个冰冷的、坚实的混凝土盒子，部分地被淹没在泥土中，没有自然光或景观。

This design-savvy client, a beverage accessory marketing and branding firm obtained this 12,000 sqft. warehouse with the intention of moving their staff there from what had been a cramped and labyrinthian set of offices several blocks away. This warehouse presented the opportunity to create a large, collaborative open space that could accommodate the whole company, but it was a cold, solid concrete box partially submerged into the earth with no natural light or views

根据我们的经验，在提供日光和景观的情况下，人们的表现最好，对他们的环境最满意。我们通过将现有的装卸门更换为玻璃车库门，并引入两个非常大的玻璃天窗来实现这一目标。

In our experience, people perform at their best and are most satisfied with their environment when daylight and views are provided. We accomplished this through the replacement of existing loading doors with glass garage doors and the introduction of two very large glass skylights.

天窗是通过引入木制夹层、桥梁和流通系统而形成的叙述中的焦点。木头与坚硬的混凝土形成了温暖的对比，流通系统通过向参观者展示工作场所，同时创造连接和非程序化的空间来鼓励合作和思想交流，从而创造了一种叙事。

The skylights provide the focal points in a narrative that was created through the introduction of the wood mezzanine, bridge, and circulation. While the wood serves as a warm contrast to the hard concrete, the circulation creates a narrative by revealing the workplace dramatically to visitors while simultaneously creating connections and unprogrammed spaces to encourage collaboration and the exchange of ideas.
