What is the well international healthy building certification?

 

What is well certification?

 

Well International Healthy Building Certification is the first building assessment standard that takes people as the basis, considers the interaction between people in the interior space of a building, and how to improve the health and well-being of building users in the building. After seven years of research and dialogue, it was established by experts from various fields around the world.well v2Through up to10 topicsEnsure the indoor health quality of building users. Today, the international community's concept of sustainable development has gradually moved from the green building era to the healthy building era, and the well certification is a building assessment certification based on people that complements the green building certifications that were not included in the past.

 

The establishment of well certification

 

Well certification was first proposed by Delos in 2013, a real estate service company based in New York. Later, well certification was transferred to IWBI for management. In 2014, GBCI began to serve as a third-party certification unit and launched the first version in the same year. Well v1 focused on seven major themes such as air, water, and light. The second version of well, which was officially launched in 2020, was affected by the epidemic era and the testing items were extended toTen themes, hoping to pay more comprehensive attention to human health and well-being.

 

What does the well International Healthy Building Certification 10 Standard focus on? Grades and costs?

  

The well v2 certification standard is divided into 10 topics: air, water, nutrition, light, movement, thermal comfort, acoustic environment, materials, spirit and community. The following will introduce the content of each topic test and the reasons for paying attention to it:

 

wellCertification Standard 1: Air

 

People spend about 90% of their time in a closed space. Indoor air pollution can also affect human health. Well v2 Air Theme not only focuses on air quality, ventilation system,Contaminant penetration managementAnd so on, which is also the basis for its rating.

 

Well certification standard 2: water

 

The quality of drinking water also affects the prevalence of infectious diseases. In addition to taking care of the drinking water provided to users, the heating and cooling systems, bathroom facilities and even the internalhumidity, all must be tested.

 

Well Certification Standard 3: Nutrition

 

Healthy eating habits have the potential to prevent diet-related diseases, such as cardiovascular disease, hypertension and diabetes. The food provided in the building is also a project for the well v2 certification audit. Can it allow building users to obtain a more balanceddietIntake is also the focus of healthy buildings in the new era.

 

wellCertification Standard 4: Light

 

Studies have shown that in office environments, bright light is closely related to employee performance. The brightness and location design of indoor lighting systems, or circadian rhythm lighting design, are key to making indoor spaces more comfortable.

 

Well Certification Standard 5: Sports

 

In recent years, people's lack of physical activity has also become a focus of public attention. Therefore, the architectural environment will also respond to this issue and build buildings into tools that can improve health and encourage building users to increase their physical activity, such as promoting exercise through architectural space planning and reducing static behavior, or providing places where standing and sitting can alternate.

 

well certification standard 6: thermal comfort

 

Thermal comfort refers to satisfying personal preferences for thermal environment through the design and control of heating systems.Improve work efficiencyAccording to research results, employees' work efficiency decreases by an average of 15% in an overheated environment, but in an overcooled environment, the average work efficiency also decreases by 14%.

 

well certification standard 7: acoustic environment

 

When the human body is overexposed toNoise environment, will increase the incidence of myocardial infarction. Even if there is not often excessive traffic noise in the building space, the noise of air-conditioning pipes, household appliances, and other residents in the building will also affect the user's comfort. How to design a comfortable sound environment space is a big challenge.

 

Well certification standard 8: materials

 

Whether in construction, decoration, operation or renovation, the materials used and the chemicals contained therein exist in the building, affecting users over the years and causing these toxic substances to accumulate in the human body, causing health problems for building users. Well v2 will also review the materials used in buildings and the management mechanism of indoor hazardous materials.

 

Well Certification Standard 9: Spirit

 

Mental illness has become a major health problem affecting people today. How the architectural environment can alleviate users’ mental stress through policies and design is also a project that needs to be considered. Creating a healthy and positive working environment can relieve employees’ anxiety andDepressionNegative emotions can also effectively improve the work quality of employees.

 

Well Certification Standard 10: Community

 

A community is a network of people gathered in a building space. In this network, people of different identities, genders and races are formed. How to provide an inclusive space and policy is the focus of this theme. For example, through a nursery or parental leave, a more supportive working environment is provided for parents.AEDFirst aid equipment such as emergency weapons are also very important for collective safety in emergencies.

 

How are the well certification levels divided?

 

Well v2 authentication is divided intoFour levels, respectively Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum. Bronze is a new level added in v2. The 10 themes mentioned above are used as scoring standards. Each theme can get up to 12 points, and the total score is 100 points. In addition to the above themes, there is an additional creativity standard. This scoring system, except for the Bronze level, has a minimum score that must be obtained in each theme.

 

How to calculate the certification fee?

 

well certifiedSquare FeetTo do the calculation, you must first pay aMembership registration feeThe fee is $3,000. The membership can be maintained for three years. After that, it is calculated based on the evaluation area, and it costs $0.16 per square foot. If the building needs to be re-certified after three years, the fee per square foot will drop to $0.05. The reason why the well certification fee is higher is that its evaluation criteria must bePersonnel actually arrived at the siteInspection, and then provide it to a third-party agency for testing.

 

Why do Taiwanese buildings need the well-healthy building certification?

 

 

The purpose of well certification is not only sustainable development!

 

Sustainable development is no longer limited to green buildings. Human health and well-being is also a major principle that is valued today. Under the consideration of various topics, well certification can not only provide a more comfortable and healthy environment for working employees and customers using the building, but also increase the reputation of the building itself and enhance the building's value in the market.

What is Nordic style?

 

The Nordic style originated from Nordic countries such as Sweden, Norway, and Finland. Due to the long winters and short sunshine hours there, the home space pays special attention to lighting and comfort. This design style is based on natural light, warm materials and minimalist lines, allowing people to feel open and relaxed indoors. A common practice is to retain large windows, use large areas of white or light-colored walls, and match them with simple and neat furniture and natural materials to make the overall space more comfortable and warm.

 

Essential elements for a Nordic-style office

 

Nordic office features 1: natural light and bright space

 

Nordic-style offices usually don’t block out too much light, but rather focus on bringing in natural light. Large windows bring in light during the day, while simple-design, soft-light lamps are used at night to keep the overall atmosphere bright but not glaring.

 

Nordic office feature 2: practicality and aesthetics

 

The furniture is mainly simple and practical, but at the same time it focuses on design. We try to use "subtraction" as much as possible in the space, removing unnecessary decorations to create a neat feeling for the overall environment.

 

Nordic office features 3: Incorporating natural elements and greenery

 

Extensive use of natural elements such as wood elements and natural fabrics as decorations, and appropriate amounts of green plants are added to create a warm atmosphere.

  • Wood elements: Solid wood floors, wooden partitions, wooden furniture (such as tables and chairs, side tables, storage cabinets), etc.
  • Natural fabrics: Linen sofa covers, curtains made of cotton, linen or tulle, wool blankets or rattan storage baskets, etc.

Nordic office features 4: simple lines and low-color colors

 

The color scheme is usually based on white, gray, beige and wood color, emphasizing the stability and calmness of the space. If embellishment is needed, non-glaring natural colors such as dark blue and dark green will also be chosen.

 

Nordic style office space traffic planning skills

 

北歐風辦公室設計

 

The Nordic style not only pursues visual simplicity, but also attaches great importance to the fluidity of space use. Good traffic planning can make the office environment more orderly and improve overall work efficiency. Here are some traffic planning tips:

 

Open layout, enhanced liquidity

 

Reduce physical compartments:

Try to avoid thick walls, and instead use glass screens, low cabinets, movable partitions, etc. to divide the space so that the line of sight can penetrate and the movement lines are more natural.

 

Open Aisle Design:

It is recommended that the width of the passage be maintained at 90-120 cm to avoid crowding or excessive winding. It can be matched with low furniture to maintain a sense of open space.

 

Natural light guides the flow of traffic

 

Integrate daylighting with usage paths:

The main work area is configured with window lighting, and the direction of light is consistent with the flow of people, which improves comfort and spatial continuity.

 

Classification by material or planting:

Wooden floor textures, ceiling lines, green walls or lighting arrangements can all be used to naturally guide walking routes.

 

Natural connection of functional areas

 

Connect each functional area smoothly:

The meeting area, tea area and work area are connected to each other to avoid dispersion, improve space utilization efficiency and make the traffic flow natural and smooth.

 

Integrate storage along the movement line:

Designing the storage system on both sides of the traffic line or in the corner area not only saves space but also avoids visual clutter, making the overall traffic line cleaner and more refreshing.

 

Different Nordic office design styles

 

In order to adapt to the space conditions, when doing interior design, the Nordic style is often combined with other styles to develop more diverse forms of expression. Such a design not only retains the original simplicity and naturalness of the Nordic style, but also meets the preferences of different users. The following are 4 common types of Nordic style extensions:

 

Modern Nordic style

 

Based on the classic Nordic style, the modern Nordic style adds a stronger sense of lines and urban elements. Black iron pieces, glass partitions and minimalist furniture are commonly seen in space design, paired with light wooden floors and large areas of white space, showing a refreshing yet individual tone, which is suitable for offices or commercial spaces with a strong sense of urbanity and creativity.

 

Warm Nordic style

 

The warm Nordic style pays more attention to the emotion and comfort of the space. It often uses softer warm colors such as beige, milk tea color, light wood color, etc. as the main axis, and matches cotton and linen fabrics, soft carpets and handmade accessories to create a warm and comfortable atmosphere. It is very suitable for small office spaces, rest areas or tea rooms that want to create a warm and relaxing atmosphere.

 

Japanese Nordic style

 

The Japanese Nordic style combines the simplicity of Nordic style with the tranquility of Japanese style. The colors are mainly natural wood color and white. Japanese-style natural materials, such as tatami, bamboo, rattan or stone elements, are added to create a natural beauty. The overall atmosphere is more Zen, which is suitable for office areas, reading spaces or informal meeting rooms that require a calm atmosphere.

 

Industrial Nordic style

 

The design combines the simplicity and naturalness of Nordic style with the rugged texture of industrial style to form a warm industrial atmosphere. The design often features exposed open air flowers, gray cement walls, iron and dark wood, which are in balance with the simple lines and natural light of the original Nordic style. It is suitable for entrepreneurial teams or cultural and creative spaces that focus on brand attitude and pursue unique style.

The first step in building an office | Large-scale space planning

 

Space planning isofficeThe first step of the design process is to plan according to the size of the enterprise, organizational structure and operational needs. This will determine the division of the overall area, such as the configuration of each functional area, the spatial proportion and the traffic flow arrangement of each area. The following are three key points of space planning:

 

1. Spatial analysis:

 

Assess the size, dimensions and natural light of existing spaces to better understand which areas are suitable for planning as primary work areas, meeting rooms or public spaces. It can also identify potential limitations in advance, such as beam and column obstruction, awkward traffic flow or uneven lighting, which can serve as a basis for subsequent design adjustments.

 

2. Zoning Planning:

 

Clearly divide the office into appropriate spatial functions, such as office areas for each department, supervisor's office, meeting space, storage area or rest area, etc. When planning, try to avoid dead corners to improve the overall space utilization efficiency.

 

3. High spatial flexibility, easy for future expansion or adjustment:

 

When planning on a large scale, sufficient flexible space should be reserved so that the office can quickly adjust the seating arrangement or area usage when the office increases manpower, reorganizes departments or changes work patterns in the future, thereby reducing modification costs and maintaining flexibility in space use.

 

The second step in building an office | Layout planning

 

After confirming the large-scale space planning, the next step is to make detailed layout planning. Every small place will affect the overall user experience. If the layout planning is done well, the space will be more comfortable and the employees' work status will naturally be more efficient. The following are three key points of layout planning:

 

Traffic flow planning:

 

The traffic flow between areas should be clear and smooth so that employees will not be disturbed or hindered when moving between spaces. At the same time, the collaboration needs and privacy between departments should be taken into account to avoid high-flow areas interfering with work areas that require concentration.

 

Arrangement of light and visual movement lines:

 

Make good use of natural lighting and arrange open areas or public spaces in locations with better lighting conditions, which can not only improve working comfort but also help save energy. At the same time, pay attention to the smoothness of visual traffic lines. You can use glass partitions or transparent materials to make the overall space look more spacious, bright and layered.

 

Meet the needs of different departments:

 

Exclusive space configuration is planned according to the needs of each department. For example, the business department needs an open discussion area, the design department needs a quiet and highly focused working environment, and the management team may need an independent office space. Through tailor-made design, each department can maximize its efficiency in the most suitable space.

Office partition design

 

 

To divide the space well, partition design is essential. According to the use requirements of different spaces, choosing the appropriate partition form can more clearly define the functions of each area. The following are three partition design points:

 

Spacer Material:

Choosing appropriate partition materials according to the functions of different areas can not only effectively soundproof, but also take into account aesthetics and functionality. For example, meeting rooms need to choose materials with good sound insulation effects to prevent external interference during meetings; while rest areas or tea rooms can use glass partitions with good light transmittance, which can maintain the open feeling of the space and create a relaxing and comfortable atmosphere.

 

Preserve natural lighting:

 

Partition design should retain natural light sources as much as possible so that light can be evenly distributed throughout the space. Transparent or translucent materials can be used to create partitions to reduce the feeling of oppression.

 

Movable compartments allow for future flexibility adjustments:

 

By using movable partitions, the space pattern can be flexibly changed according to needs, allowing the office layout to remain flexible at all times and reducing subsequent reconstruction costs.

Office Seating Planning

 

 

Choose a suitable seating layout based on department functions and work needs. For example, open seating is suitable for teams that promote communication and collaboration, while independent offices or semi-open seating are suitable for workers who need to concentrate or maintain privacy.

 

Three seating configuration tips:

 

  • Appropriate distance

Maintaining a moderate distance between supervisors and employees can avoid a sense of oppression and also allow supervisors to maintain privacy.

 

  • Adequate seating space

There should be enough space for movement between seats to avoid crowding and inconvenience.

 

  • Configurable visual occlusion

Use movable partitions to separate seats to reduce interference and distraction, but the partitions should not be too high to avoid a sense of oppression.

 

Common seating configurations:

 

 

  • Team Group

Arranging seats in groups helps promote instant communication and collaboration among group members.

 

  • I-shaped layout

The seats are arranged in a neat and consistent horizontal or vertical arrangement, which not only saves space but also looks simpler and more orderly visually.

 

  • L-Shape / U-Shape Configuration

Provides more desktop space, suitable for operating multiple screens or documents at the same time.

 

Office Seat Feng Shui

 

In Chinese culture, Feng Shui plays an important role in guiding the energy of a space. Feng Shui is not completely superstitious, but also a kind of experience passed down over the years. The following are some common Feng Shui suggestions for seating:

 

Office Feng Shui 1: Having someone to lean on

 

For example, walls, partitions or cabinets can enhance the sense of security, provide employees with a stable support while working, reduce anxiety and improve work efficiency.

 

Office Feng Shui 2: Avoid facing the entrance

 

If the door is facing you, there will be a door conflict, which will make it difficult for you to sit still and always want to run outside, which will easily lead to conflicts or distractions.

 

Office Feng Shui 3: Keep a clear view ahead

 

It symbolizes a bright career prospect. If there is an open space in front of the seat, it means there are more opportunities and room for development, which helps to stimulate creativity and enhance work motivation.

 

Office Feng Shui 4: No beams or columns

 

If there are beams or pillars above your seat, it will give you a sense of oppression. Staying in such an environment for a long time will cause physical and mental discomfort, affecting work efficiency and mood. Therefore, you should avoid having conspicuous beams or pillars above your seat.

 

Create a unique corporate style | Overall office configuration

 

 

The overall configuration includes furniture selection, lighting design, color matching and decoration style. These elements can show the corporate culture and image. For example, a technology company can choose a minimalist and cool color scheme, while a design company can inject creative colors and material changes. The integration of details determines the overall atmosphere.

 

Unified decorative style

 

Furniture style, lighting selection and color scheme should be consistent to avoid style confusion and make the overall space more coordinated.

 

Brand elements integrated into space

 

Brand recognition can be enhanced through corporate logo colors, wall slogans, customized furniture or display areas, and corporate culture can be integrated into space design so that visiting customers and employees can feel the company's personality and values.

 

Aesthetics and practicality

 

Configuration design should not only look good, but also meet actual usage needs, such as choosing ergonomic desks and chairs to improve employee comfort and work efficiency.

The origin of green design: from environmental awareness to sustainable innovation

 

1960s: The rise of designers’ social responsibility

 

Green design originated in the mid-20th century by American design theorists. Victor Papanek In the 1960s, a book titled Design for the Real World was published, which clearly proposed for the first time that design should aim to reduce the impact on the environment rather than simply pursue commercial value, officially opening the prelude to green design.

 

1970s: Energy crisis and rising environmental awareness

 

In 1972, the United Nations held the "Conference on the Human Environment" in Stockholm, Sweden, and issued the "Manifesto of Humanity", which represented the first time that environmental issues received international attention. The oil crisis in the 1970s made people realize the limited nature of resources. Countries began to pay attention to resource conservation and energy efficiency, which led to the further development of the concept of green design.

 

Late 1980s: Green consumption and design return to moral responsibility

 

In the late 1980s, environmental pollution, ozone layer depletion and global warming emerged, and the European and American societies were in a state ofGreen consumption"wave. Consumers are beginning to pay attention to the environmental attributes of products, and companies are investing in sustainable development technologies, driving the rise of "green products." The design community has also re-examined its own role, emphasizing circular economy, resource efficiency and ecological sustainability, and incorporating these concepts into design practice.

 

1990s to present: From trend to standard, green design becomes a global consensus

 

Since the 1990s, the United Nations and governments have successively formulated sustainable development policies, such as the United Nations SDG12"Responsible consumption and production" goals, and the EU's ESPRThe "Sustainable Product Eco-Design Specification" has transformed green design from a designer's personal ideal into a global industry standard, promoting design towards a more efficient, environmentally friendly and sustainable direction.

 

Green design definition, what is the difference between it and sustainable design?

 

Green design is aEnvironmentally friendlyA thoughtful design approach that emphasizes reducing resource consumption, reducing pollution, and improving recyclability and renewability during product design, construction, or manufacturing, so as to meet usage needs while also being responsible for the environment.

 

However, with the evolution of design concepts, the concept of green design has gradually beenSustainable Design(Sustainable Design)". In a broad sense, both focus on environmental protection and advocate reducing resource waste and pollution, but their scope and considerations are different.

 

Sustainable Design:

 

Green design focuses on the harmonious coexistence of design and ecology, while sustainable design covers a wider range of issues. In addition to environmental factors, it also considers social and economic aspects, emphasizing the systematic development of various aspects from product life cycle, supply chain management to labor rights. Therefore, green design can be considered as part of sustainable design.

Green Design Principles

 

Traditional design thinking focuses more on function and market value, while the concept of green design emphasizes reducing the impact on the environment. The following are the 4R core principles of green design.

 

Green Design Principle 1: Reduce

 

In product design, consider how to reduce material usage and resource consumption in the production process, such as designing lightweight products or using environmentally friendly materials to reduce carbon footprint.

 

Green Design Principle 2: Reuse

 

Emphasize the durability and versatility of the product so that it can be used multiple times during the use phase, such as electronic products with replaceable parts or detachable furniture.

 

Green Design Principle 3: Recycle

 

Choosing materials that are easy to decompose and recycle, or designing products that are easy to disassemble so that the materials can be recycled, such as recyclable plastics or metals, can help reduce waste accumulation.

 

Green Design Principle 4: Repair

 

Encourage the design of products that are easy to repair and extend their service life. Interchangeable parts and simple repair processes reduce waste and delay the time it takes for products to enter waste treatment systems.

  • Use a certain ratio or amount of recycled materials.
  • Easy to disassemble and modular, with certain maintainability.
  • Enhanced durability for longer life.
  • Limit or prohibit the use of environmentally harmful substances.

EU ESPR Act promotes green design upgrade

 

In June 2024, the European Union announced the ESPR Act, which strengthens the green design principles, requires products to consider environmental impacts at the design stage, improve durability, repairability and recyclability, and reduce the use of hazardous substances. It encourages companies to use sustainable materials, improve product circularity, and create digital passports to increase transparency. The bill also combines green public procurement to encourage the government to choose environmentally friendly products, promote the market's transformation towards sustainable development, and accelerate the practice of the circular economy.

 

Green Design Example: Green Building Materials & Green Architecture – B Studio’s Design Work “Zuyuanju”

 

B Studio's green design architectural works: Zuyuan Residence (won K-DESIGN AWARD and many other international design awards)

 

The green application of this building is in line with the concept of sustainable design, which not only improves the living environment but also reduces the burden on the environment. Using timeless and environmentally friendly fair-faced concrete as the main material reduces resource consumption during decoration and construction, achieving a balance between simplicity and beauty. The glass surface design of the exterior can effectively insulate, reduce the absorption of solar heat, and reduce the need for air conditioning. The abundant daylight entering the room also reduces the need for artificial lighting. The arrangement of wall gaps, aluminum grilles and open spaces greatly improves air circulation, ensuring comfort and ventilation inside the building.

Why choose green decoration? B-Studio tells you its importance! 

 

Choosing green decoration is not only a contribution to the earth's environment, but also can bring multiple benefits to the residents. B-Studio believes that the importance of green decoration is reflected in the following aspects:

 
Protecting the health of residents Some materials used in traditional decoration may release harmful substances, and long-term exposure may have an impact on human health. Green decoration uses environmentally friendly and healthy materials, which can effectively reduce indoor air pollution and provide a safer environment for residents.
Improve living comfort Green decoration focuses on natural lighting, ventilation and sound insulation, and can create a more comfortable and pleasant living space.
Save energy costs By improving energy-efficient designs and equipment, energy consumption can be significantly reduced, resulting in considerable long-term savings on electricity and water bills.
Increase property value As people's awareness of environmental protection increases, more and more home buyers consider green buildings and green decoration as important factors. Therefore, properties with green decoration usually have a higher market value.
Practice corporate social responsibility For enterprises, choosing green decoration can not only provide employees with a healthy working environment, but also demonstrate the company's commitment to environmental protection and enhance the corporate image.



Seeking professional assistance: the necessity of green decoration designers

 

To successfully achieve the goal of green decoration, the assistance of professionals is often required. Green decoration designers have the relevant knowledge and skills and can incorporate environmental protection concepts into the design stage. They can provide a full range of green decoration design services according to customer needs and budget, including:

  • Floor plan proposal: Based on the requirements you provide and the current condition of the house, the green decoration designer will carry out space planning and propose a floor plan that complies with the green decoration principles.
  • Design planning and contract signing: After the floor plan is determined, the designer will further refine the design plan, including the selection of building materials, such as environmentally friendly, low VOCs, natural, recyclable materials, color matching, lighting design, furniture configuration, etc.
  • Preparation and construction: Before construction, the designer will assist you with relevant preparatory work. During the construction process, the designer will be responsible for supervision and ensure that the project is carried out in accordance with the design drawings and green decoration standards.

 

 

Improving professional recognition: Green decoration license and green decoration certification fees

The green decoration certificate is to enhance the professional recognition of designers and related practitioners in the field of environmental protection and healthy decoration. The following is an explanation of the conditions and process for obtaining the certificate, the details of the certification fee, and the validity and value of the certificate:

For example, the vitality given by orange is suitable for companies with creative and dynamic personalities. The brand LOGO wall in the reception area, the cultural display area in the corridor, and the design elements in the tea room can all strengthen brand recognition and closely connect the space with the corporate spirit.

 

Light design, comfortable and efficient lighting environment

In addition to natural lighting, office lighting should provide uniform and soft light to avoid glare and dark corners.

Simple measures such as choosing low-energy lighting, adding green plants, using environmentally friendly materials, and purchasing energy-saving equipment are all feasible practices.

 

Office design style 1: modern minimalist style

The modern style creates an open, bright and orderly working environment through clean lines, simple colors and high-functional furniture, while reducing visual noise to make the space more efficient and comfortable. In this case, large glass partitions are used to separate the open work area and the rest area, which not only retains the sense of transparency but also does not affect the flow of sight. The simple yellow-green leisure chairs and geometric carpets add a touch of vitality, making the space not too cold.

This article will tell youTips for planning office light partitions, helping you plan office traffic flow, arrange space distribution, and organizeTypes, costs and regulations of office light partitions,let B-Studio Accompany you to create an ideal office!

 

Are office cubicle walls important?

 

Good office space planning will make employees and performance soar! Office partition walls play the role of dividing space, arranging traffic lines, and setting lighting and ventilation in space design. If the public, meeting, individual and rest spaces in the office are properly planned, it will not only reduce interference between colleagues, improve concentration and work efficiency, and bring a new look to the company, but the company will also be able to flexibly adjust the use of space according to needs, saving money and time.

 

Five office cubicle planning tips

 

The purpose of office partition planning is to provide employees with an efficient and comfortable working environment and help the company develop stably. The following are five things to pay attention to in office partition planning.

 

 

1. Arrange the flow of space

 

When arranging traffic flow, it is necessary to consider the convenience of personnel movement and design traffic flow that meets business needs. In addition, special attention should be paid to the traffic flow of entrances and exits to avoid congestion caused by narrow aisles. It is recommended to use furniture or partitions to divide the space into functional areas, so as to separate the reception area, waiting area and work area.

 

2. Choose the partition material

 

When choosing materials, you should choose glass partitions, wooden partitions or steel partitions according to the sound insulation, privacy or visual needs. The materials of each partition can refer to the types of office partitions below.

 

3. Combine natural light sources

 

Use glass partitions or open partitions to maximize light and make the space feel brighter.

 

4. Leave room for flexibility

 

Incorporate the need for business expansion or structural adjustments into space planning considerations and choose adjustable partition walls or movable partitions.

 

5. Integrate corporate culture design

 

The color and shape of the partitions can reflect the corporate culture and values.

B-STUDIO has servedHitachi OfficeFor example, in the 127-ping space, seven major areas are planned: "Tea Room/Social Hall/Office Area/Flexible Room/Meeting Room/Locker/Telephone Booth".

 

 

Office cubicles: Pantry – an open communication space

 

In the past offices, tea rooms mostly served as places to meet colleagues’ drinking and eating needs. In this planning, we have specially expanded the function of the tea room. It is not only a space to meet the needs of food and beverage, but also a place to increase team cohesion. Whether it is exhibitions, lectures, meetings, workshops or dinners, all kinds of activities that previously required renting venues can be held in the newly planned tea area. Colleagues can also rest, relax, and discuss in the tea area after work to change their mood.

 

Office partitions: Office area – reduce solid wall partitions, increase open views and natural light

 

In the planning of the work space, the open work space allows a large amount of natural light to penetrate into the office, creating a bright working environment. Encourage communication and collaboration among teams. In the distribution and planning of the meeting space, aluminum-framed glass partitions are used to give the space a simple and modern design style, eliminating the need for solid wall partitions and broadening the visual experience of the space.

 

Through the “active and quiet zoning” planning, the public area becomes an open communication place, while the private work area provides a quiet space for focused work, creating a highly interactive open office space, making the office not only functional, but also a tangible display of corporate culture.

What are the store design details? I will tell you 2 key points of decoration, 4 design techniques and 4 case studies all at once!

How to use space to attract customers into the store, improve their shopping experience and encourage them to return is a major challenge that every brand store will encounter when opening a store! Store design is not justDecoration, and it is also the first impression of the brand image. After all, what details should we pay attention to in store design? How to plan the decoration of small stores and restaurants? This article will analyze the two core focuses of store decoration, share 4 practical design tips, and also deeply analyze the store decoration costs, so that you can easily grasp the various details of store decoration!

 

Two key designs for store decoration

 

Store decoration is not only a visual presentation, but also a perfect combination of brand value and consumer experience. How to make the store stand out in the fiercely competitive market and guide them into the store is a topic that every store owner must think deeply about when planning. The following are two key points that cannot be ignored when designing a store.

 

Store decoration focus 1: sign design

 

Shop signIt is the key indicator of the store. It can attract consumers' attention and convey the brand image and spirit. It is also the primary factor in attracting consumers to enter the store. An ideal sign design must be able to clearly convey brand information and attract consumers’ attention. Key considerations include whether the font size is clear enough, whether the information content is concise and powerful, and whether the color is attractive.

If the store is located next to a busy road, it is recommended to use larger horizontal or vertical signs; for stores located in small streets and alleys, you can choose side signs or small round signs to highlight the texture and increase recognition.

 

Store decoration focus 2: appearance design

 

店面裝潢

 

The store's exterior design is also one of the key points. In addition to affecting consumers' willingness to enter the store, the overall design must also echo the brand image and show a unique style through window design and store color matching. Here are 4 key points for store exterior design:

 

  • Entrance planning:There will be different considerations depending on the nature of the customer base. If you want to attract a large number of people into the store, you must set up obvious and open entrances and exits to avoid being too hidden so that customers will have psychological doubts and stay away; on the contrary, if you focus on the reservation system or serve specific consumers, you can keep the entrance confidential and prevent customers without reservations from entering the store at will.
  • Door and window design:Glass door design is the door and window material used in most stores. It can increase natural lighting in the store, display goods and store furnishings, and increase consumers' impression of the store. However, glass requires frequent maintenance and cleaning. If it is not properly maintained and cleaned, the glass full of stains and fingerprints will instead reduce consumers' impression of the brand. Therefore, it is recommended to limit the area of glass used. For example, you can only use glass on doors or windows. If you really want to use large areas of glass, you can stick a brand image on the glass. This can not only reduce the sense of dirtiness, but also increase the advertising effect, leaving an impression on passers-by.
  • Color matching:The color of the store appearance is also one of the core factors that determine the store and brand image. It is recommended to refer to the brand CI designated color for extension. If the brand does not have a CI design standard, you can choose attribute colors based on the brand industry. It is recommended to avoid more than three main colors to ensure that the store is visually concise and focused to avoid confusion and loss of focus.
  • Clear marking:If the store is located in a relatively hidden and inconspicuous place, it is recommended to add guide signs or light boxes to help customers easily find the entrance. Similarly, the sign design must also be consistent with the overall design style to increase brand professionalism.

 

What are the in-store and store design techniques?

 

店面設計

 

In addition to visual aesthetic design, store function planning is also very important. How to showcase brand value in the limited space of the store and enhance customers’ shopping experience is a test of the sophistication and ingenuity of store design. The following are four key points:

 

Tip 1: Traffic flow planning

 

Traffic flow planning is one of the core elements of store design. The most taboo thing is that the store is overcrowded and employees are in disarray due to unclear traffic flow, which will affect customers' shopping experience and reduce their willingness to return. Therefore, it is very important to design smooth traffic flow, avoid overly crowded traffic flow and areas where customers stop due to interference, ensure smooth walking paths, and allow customers to have a comfortable experience from entering the store, shopping to checkout. At the same time, clearly marked instructions can help customers quickly find the products they need and improve their satisfaction.

 

Tip 2: Lighting Design

 

In addition to store color, lighting design also helps create store atmosphere and enhance the overall customer experience. For examplespotlight, which can highlight the main products, attract attention and strengthen the core characteristics of the brand. In addition, the choice of color temperature is also very important. Warm lighting can create a relaxing atmosphere, while cool tones are suitable for a more modern brand image.

 

Tip 3: Bar work area design

 

The bar work area is not only the employee's working area, but also an important front-line area that comes into contact with consumers. The most important thing is efficiency and practicality. When designing, the corresponding hardware equipment placement (such as sockets, POS) and suitable storage space. In addition, the bar work area should reserve enough space for consumers to queue up for checkout to avoid congestion that affects the customer's consumption experience.

 

Tip 4: Pay attention to interior decoration regulations

 

The last and most important point is that relevant laws and regulations must be observed, such as fire regulations, hygiene standards, and decoration material requirements. For example: set up emergency exits, prepare fire-fighting equipment, and ensure that the space meets safety requirements. Before designing, it is recommended to conduct in-depth research on relevant regulations and cooperate with professional designers to create a safe and legal commercial space and enhance the brand's professional image.

 

What are the store decoration costs?

 

The decoration costs will vary depending on the store area, design requirements and style selection, and are mainly divided into the following items:

 

Demolition engineering costs

What are the key points to pay attention to when decorating a small store?

 

How to maximize the visual effect and display the brand image in a limited space is a big challenge for every small store decoration. The following will introduce two key points of small store decoration.

 

Traffic flow design and display design

 

Not only the general store decorationTraffic flowDesign, small stores will pay more attention to the traffic flow design. It becomes very important to design a reasonable traffic flow to increase the time customers browse products and stay. For example, the entrance design should ensure smooth and spacious access, and design a circular route from the entrance to the checkout to guide customers to browse all the products in the store.

 

Selection and application of multifunctional furniture

 

Since small stores are subject to space constraints, it is recommended to use multi-layer cabinets or other multifunctional furniture that focuses on storage. Not only can this increase storage space, but it can also design a layered merchandise display. For example, the main merchandise can be placed within the customer's field of vision to increase exposure, and the design theme can be used to display merchandise in combination, effectively improving space utilization efficiency.

 

Key points of restaurant decoration design

 

To create a restaurant that attracts customers, decoration design is also one of the key factors. How to create a unique and unforgettable dining atmosphere through design and planning is a topic that every restaurant brand operator needs to think deeply about. The following will introduce 4 key points of restaurant decoration design.

 

Key point 1: Restaurant brand visual presentation

 

To present the restaurant’s brand image and brand tone, store decoration is definitely the first choice. For example, the design of a storefront sign should be combined with the brand logo and be simple and powerful so that customers can quickly identify it. Internal design is also very important, such as adding brand CI or LOGO, and selecting materials and colors in the store.

 

Point 2: Store movement planning

 

The quality of restaurant traffic flow planning will affect customers' dining experience. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure a clear and smooth traffic flow design and sufficient dining space so that customers can easily find a seat after entering the door, pick up the food smoothly after ordering, and finally check out without overlapping with other customers who have placed orders. Based on these plans, we will maximize the use of space and improve the utilization rate of tables.

 

Point 3: Lighting and color application

 

lightilluminationDesign is the key to influencing customers' dining atmosphere and consumption experience. It is recommended to use soft-toned lighting and multi-layered light and shadow effects to create a comfortable and textured atmosphere. Functional accent lighting is also provided, providing sufficient light for customers to clearly read the menu and appreciate the meal.

For example, a case that B-STUDIO has assisted: Star Place (Music, Wine, 101 Night View), during the day, a large area of lighting is used to create a transparent dining area light source. At night, in addition to the night view that comes into view, the lighting atmosphere can also be adjusted to create a blue romantic atmosphere.

A good office space is an indispensable step to retain top talents. After all, no one wants to work hard in a place with a bad environment and atmosphere. A good working environment affects employees’ mood and efficiency at work. Here are 4 offices Design focus allows you to capture top talent.

Every space should have a clear purpose. If spaces for individual work, dining, and team discussions are mixed, employees will easily interfere with each other and the quality of their work will not be optimal.
