Floating
A conference room design functioning as a welcome lounge. Placed at an entry hall of a company, intended to make the space delightful and lighter expressing more welcoming gesture, applied bright cream colored stones to the space and extended it to the hallway in order to integrate two spaces together through clear glass partitions.
To enhance feeling of lightness, adopted a plane panel lighting hung from ceiling together with a meeting table of thin-plane shape, eventually generates a sense that objects are floating in the space. The glass partitions built up with switchable glasses with dimming-function ensures privacy for the room when needed. Panel lighting with tunable-white function allows more comfortable and controllable meeting environment while sub-ceiling lights with WRGB function provides more flexible use of the space to be an intermittent event venue for the company.
