Gradient frosted glass above the shelving is used to partially obscure the offices but ensure a seamless visual flow between the spaces. Texture and a natural color palette are also used to divide zones, where oak veneer flooring in the communal area transitions to lawns of green carpeting in office spaces. It is a unique “Shelf” arranged in a meandering way . On the shelf, gradated glass, transparent glass , and glass-free areas are systematically placed to act as information barriers, and the information security level is controlled to create a visually seamless space.

The main large meeting room can be opened as part of a shared space, or closed with sliding glass doors for a more private private meeting room.

Defined by deep green carpeting, overhead wooden louvers and low hanging amber pendant lamps, it exudes extra warmth — a space of pure relaxation that can be sectioned off by a wall of curtain. Like much of the MONE Group Office design, it remains a flexible space, a counter to work at during the day transforming into a cozy gathering space in the evenings.
