Co-working Space, Concept plus Location (week 1)

Location

The location for the Task Lamp will be incorporated into a co-working projects that is part of Interior Design III project at CIDI Chanapat.

In collaboration with the ideas of interior design, here is the concept statement that will be a theme guidelines for the space itself:

Concept

Our following design brief takes into consideration the human needs for the new working model based on findings from the thesis: “Environmental Psychology - Work Space Culture (Based on Google Corporation and Some…)”

In order to accommodate the new work model, designing work spaces must shift from a physical work setting to an entire work space culture. How work space is designed affects not only how we feel, but also our productivity, our loyalty to an organization or our loyalty to our personal goals and aspirations, and our sense of pride and purpose. With this understanding, a design scheme should put emphasis on psychological and social attributes that have impact on human behavior.

The aim is to establish a new design approach for a co-working space -- to design environments rather than spaces. The first main aspect is to satisfy the work / play mentality of Gen-Y. The second, and more specifically, is to design environments for people to causally and spontaneously “collide” in order to interact, share information, give inspiration and be inspired, and have a sense of belonging.
