JSD Srudio New Office Design

We utilized our own house to design a studio for ourselves, which was both exciting and a rare experience for the design team.

From time to time, I discuss with my clients that if you're choosing a designer you like, don't look at his project experience, but look at his own home.Because, a good design has many possibilities. But, the designer's own home represents his perception and aesthetics of life.

The office serves as a second home for designers (who work overtime and stay up late). Therefore, the original intention of redecorating the office, in addition to jsd's own changes in strategy for future development, more is the depth of thinking about design, work, and life.We think about the fact that we spend most of our time in the office during the working day. The office naturally becomes our second home. So, how to make the office environment the best experience for everyone, as well as the greatest sense of identity and pleasure, is the key to our thinking about this office.

One hundred square meters | 100 square meters

The ideal is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.In a space of 100 square meters, how to guarantee the best use of functionality while taking care of the moods and preferences of all users.it's a biggest difficulty in the project.As a result, the space was completely split and reorganized. All available space was fully utilized in a compliant manner.The original kitchen area was opened and linked to the entry area, forming the entrance reception water bar area; the living balcony was changed into a closed kitchen for the chef to cook working meals; the original dining room area was connected to the living room,we try our best to ensure the comfort and integrity of the meeting space, on the basis of which we have added a telephone room, which not only meets the needs of daily use, but also gives the entry relationship a certain sense of ceremony and a sense of brand image; The three original bedrooms and balcony space have been regrouped. The result is an integrated office area with a staff office (brainstorming area) at its core, and linked to an open office, a director's office, and a dialogue tea room.

The traditional hospitality and service functions are hidden from view.all the designs will be reconstructed around the users themselves.we do not have separate meeting rooms, nor do we have so-called staff lounge and reception areas. The brainstorming area not only serves design and discussion, but also applies to dining and meeting functions.The traditional living room is also not only used as a place for client reception and communication, but also as a space for relaxation and dialogue for our team. The open-plan water bar area and kitchen are also allowed to be shared and used by everyone.

Because, more than anything, we want this to be a part of the team's life, a place where everyone can stay.

Domain

Since we have made this place our second home, and have loved it and stayed here because of it. Then everything about this space will be the way we like it.

Like-mindedness is not an idealistic statement. Because we all believe in the law of attraction. And at the heart of attraction is a spiritual place where we can all relate to each other. And that's what our studio is.

So whether it is from the expression of the space decoration materials, or processing techniques, or the lighting atmosphere, and the choice of artifacts and so on.these are expressing us all the time, conveying the spirit of JSD, as well as delighting ourselves.

Of course, this is also regarded as a kind of self-expression of JSD, and such expression does not need words to be added. What you see, what you touch, what you feel, is our most real appearance.This is the most basic understanding and expression of our daily life, space aesthetics, and design work. And this is JSD.

Future

The future of JSD is as small and beautiful as our studio.

We seek to explore the essence of things and express the nuances of everyday life. We are concerned with the development of the world, as well as our own world.
