Waterfrom Design transforms the perspective of space in the 30-year factory as if it were water.

Deconstructing the filtration cycle is a complex process, and layers are used to separate spaces based on the concept of “water filtration” in the water making process.

Light materials such as barcode glass and mesh are used for partitioning, and vertical and horizontal routes pass through and overlap like the water treatment process.

Table lamps and railings are decorated with bright and saturated colors. The spatial direction and linear rhythm are guided through the layout of work tables, pipelines, and steel beams.

Semi-transparent U-shaped glass has replaced the iron sheets and windows at the front, eliminating the common issue of factories being dark.

The shifting lights pass through the glass wall and form a variety of rosy colors.

The recycling structure made from transparent plastic sheets becomes a light emitting building when sunlight shines on it, performing the performance art of recycling in the front courtyard.

FLUID

The middle of the space is a laboratory built with glass, the laboratory’s table is made from steel, veneer, and hollow boards symbolize the corporate culture of innovation and research & development, showing the dynamic process through a circular route surrounded by lamps.

Exposed gray pipes and colored glass that reflect on each other in the block-shaped office space above create a depth of view similar to filters, and increase the spatial depth and temperature of the second floor.
