法國巴黎　杜邦工作室新總部

Atelier du Pont has built its own office building in the heart of the 11th district of Paris. Aware of the opportunity to use this space as a showcase for their know-how and their way of designing, they imagined this new workplace as a small laboratory, ideal for reflection, experimentation and production. And above all, as a place where you feel good.

杜邦工作室於巴黎第十一區的中心地帶為自己建造辦公大樓，設計團隊明白這是能藉由該案展示自身技能和設計手法的機會，他們設想這個新辦空間能作為小型實驗室，適用於反思、實驗和生產等功能。最重要的是，這是個讓人感到舒適的場所。

From architecture to interior design, through layout and furniture, Atelier du Pont has designed all of this new agency. This commitment to build everything is the very essence of the building and their approach. The agency has always had the will to integrate the concept of «global design» in its projects and this realization is the perfect example.

設計師從建築到室內設計，格局到家具，皆為這個新辦公室進行全面規劃。建築和設計方法的本質對於整個建造工程來說是一種承諾，該機構向來有意將「全球設計」的概念融於此項計畫，而這種體現便是個完美的例子。

Building all in wood was an obvious choice. The raw and exposed wood reinforces the warm and embodied spirit of the space, it has a smell and the combination of its natural texture with warm and colored paint creates a familiar atmosphere and structures the spaces. At the end of a dead end, wood also allowed for easier supply of the construction site and less nuisance for the very close neighbours. Low-tech processes were adopted to avoid air conditioning, including blinds, natural ventilation, air brewers...

全棟以木材作為鮮明的選材依據，原始和裸露的木質菜料增強了空間的溫度與精神，不僅是材質的氣味，其自然紋理結合色調溫暖且多彩的油漆，共創一種熟悉氛圍並構建了整體場域。此外，當施作過程面臨難題時，木材能更有效地供應給施工現場，同時降低對鄰居的滋擾。而透過低技術層面的方法，像是使用百葉窗、自然通風和吊扇，能避免安裝空調的必要性。

Designed in a «U» shape around a planted patio, the offices are organized into «work hubs», designed to facilitate daily exchanges and to allow the teams to move easily as the projects arise. Shared spaces are located on each floor to encourage group work, exchanges and informal work. Thus, planted terraces, meeting bubbles, a model workshop, a material library, a cafeteria, etc, punctuate the work areas and encourage people to meet up. One level of the building is also dedicated to a coworking space. The cafeteria is regularly transformed into an exhibition space.

辦公室採用U字型設計圍繞綠意昂然的庭院，形成「工作中心」，除了可增進同事之間的日常交流，也允許團隊在執行項目時，方便在空間內移動。為了鼓勵員工進行團體作業、非正式工作，彼此亦能多交流互動，每層樓皆設置了共享區域，包括種有植栽的露台、會議包廂、模型工作坊、材質資料館和自助餐廳等設施，促使人們能多見面相處。另外，一樓更專門作為共同工作空間，自助餐廳則經常轉化為展覽場地。

Designed in a housing size, the post and beam structure enables the building’s mutability. In short, this project has been conceived as a living structure that offers the possibility for this new work space to live and evolve with the times. A small synthesis of the architectural and human convictions of Atelier du Pont.

該案依照房子的比例所設計，梁柱結構使建築具有可變性。綜觀整體，該計畫被視為具有生命的建築，為這個新的辦公空間提供讓人生活和與時俱進的可能性，更成為杜邦工作室對於建築和人類抱持信念的小型綜合體。
