Located in the heart of Shanghai and within 45 minutes drive of two international airports, the conveninent location makes it a breeze to travel to nearby attractions, such as: the Shanghai Film Museum, the Adidas Football Park and the beautiful Dong'an Park, etc. through easily accesible means like trains and metro. FVA had the pleasure to renovate the 1800 sqm basement into an ideal working space, consisting of fully equipped private and shared area as well as entertainment and relaxation corners.

The design concept we proposed was the fresh contemporary style with well-lit, open and connected areas. It is understandable that basements might lack natural light or don’t even have any at all. To counter this problem, FVA utilized the glass ceilings in the sunken ground architecture, resulting in an assuring amount of natural light, which plays a large role in maintaining the liveliness of every construction.

A beautiful underground garden area is presented to give a touch of greenery to the space and play as an outdoor relaxation area. The tropical plants such as bamboo, cactus and banana are selected.

The architect's team generated an palette of light-contrasted colors including bright, greyish, natural wood color, and orange colors as an indicator for interior choices. The simple and flexible furniture are comprised from as a series of solid tables, chairs and sofa from HAY, Humanscale, VICCARBE, Lamex, which are then guided by rugs from Daskina. Finally, to compliment the elegant furniture, FVA team used gorgeous pendant lighting of Flos, Zero, Atelje Lytan, &tradition, Petite Friture, Nemo Cassina. As a result, a beautiful and functional coworking zone is ready to welcome you and your business partners.
