DESIGN NAME: Yeahbox
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Office
INSPIRATION: As a gift customization brand, Yeah Box has been committed to integrating life aesthetics with gift designs. This case intends to associate product display with office space to create an interactive site that echoes the Yeah Box brand spirit featuring Yours, Elasticity, Aesthetics and Hospitality.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The two-story building space adopts the Tetris plane layout to maximize the use of the space, uses mirrors to increase spatial infinity, and applies colors and shapes to enhance spatial stratification. By inserting L-shaped functional blocks, it keeps all the functional areas independent and integrated, serving as a shared space for product display, efficient office operation and recreation.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: The design aims to show the idea of brand Yeah Box, at the same time providing a fun and relaxed atmosphere to its staff as well as guests visiting there. To reach this goal, we use the idea of Tetris plane layout and L-shaped blocks to combine the beauty and function. We also choose the orange color as the foundation of background to create fun atmosphere.
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The project started in March 2020 in Shenzhen and finished in October 2020 in Shenzhen.
FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY: Interior Space and Exhibition Design

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: The first floor is reserved for display and office functions. The lifting table could work both as a proofing operation panel and a simple small conference table. The wall integrates the functions of writing board, display, and tool storage. The places by the windows retain the original concrete floor ceiling to reduce the use of decorative panels. The second floor is a relatively private space for receiving visitors and taking a rest.
SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: The orange color serves as the dominant tone of the space, while yellow and gray are applied as transition colors. Such a warm tone combination creates a young and lively tone, highlighting the unique temperament of the brand. A suspended staircase is erected at the entrance area, under which a window display space is formed to exhibit new products (the drawing design with storage cabinets can meet the display needs of various themes).
