NC Design & Architecture Takes Home an Award for Its Own Office
2023 Best of Year Winner for Firm’s Own Office
There is much talk lately about devising offices with residential touches, so that those who grew accustomed to remote work feel at home. This Hong Kong workplace by and for NC Design & Architecture excels in that notion, in a highly sophisticated manner. Rattan Pierre Jeanneret chairs, a plush velvet sofa by Norm Architects, travertine tables, and artwork scattered about would all suit a residential setting. Finishes add to the living-room vibe: There’s abundant millwork, half columns conceal metal window frames, and the glossy ceiling reflects light, making the 1,600- square-foot design studio feel larger than it is. And forget ordinary cubicles: Workstations are tucked behind curved enclosures, hiding clutter and providing a sense of shelter.
