2014年，我们在柏林设立了第一家办事处。为了进一步挖掘德国首都的创意潜力，我们决定将这所办事处扩建成为一间完备的设计事务所。经过一番寻找，我们终于在生机勃勃的柏林市中心找到了一处合适的办公地点。

Established in 2014, our Berlin branch studio has been operating in the German capital for a few years now. To maximize its full metropolitan potential, we decided to transform the rather small branch office into a fully operational location. After some search, we eventually found the right spaces in Potsdamer Street, a booming district between Kreuzberg and the new city center ‘Mitte’.

在一栋建于十九世纪的老建筑中，我们于2016年夏天搬入了一个165平方米的工作空间。沿窗一侧，总共十个办公位置分列两组，继承了斯图加特总部无等级的开放式办公理念，有效促进沟通，营造透明的办公氛围。为了满足各种不同的沟通需求，我们设置了多种多样的谈话区域。在办公室的一端，一大一小两间会议室占据了空间的整条宽边。另外两个开敞的谈话区延续空间中立柱的节奏，其中一个立柱还被改造成为了一个站立谈话的位置。

Situated in a late 19th century ensemble of buildings, the new 165 square meter office has now been serving as our capital studio since the relocation in mid-2016. Adopting the transparent and communicative open office concept of our Stuttgart studios, it offers a total of ten workplaces that are organized in groups of face-to-face desks along the window side. With a wide range of conference and meeting spaces, the new studio satisfies the diverse needs for communication. Spread out across the office’s head end, a small and a large conference room make full use of the space’s width, while two open meeting areas follow the rhythm of the columns that run through the entire studio. On top of that, one of the columns even acts as a supporting element of a conference high table.

我们用浓烈的色彩来渲染整个办公空间的个性和魅力。办公区的橡木地板上铺设深蓝色地毯，与其他区域区分开来。墙面颜色选择的蓝绿色调既与地毯呼应，又与从粉红到红褐深浅不一的红色调形成对比。天花板上的区域划分元素以及立柱底座装饰的文字均采用温暖的黄色设计。饱满的桔色点缀各处，勾勒出空间的立体结构。所有色块均采用严谨的几何形态，充满建筑设计感。而活力四射、浓烈饱满的色彩，以及略显不羁的设计元素——例如会议室中从地面延伸到墙面的地毯设计，又是对这种严谨的一种突破。

Strong, vibrant colour schemes structure the space and give the office a unique charm. Furnished with deep blue carpets on oak wood flooring, the work area with its fitting blue and turquoise walls immediately stands out. Corresponding shades of red - ranging from rose to puce tones - and a warm yellow, which highlights the structuring ceiling element and graces the base of the columns, provide a beautiful contrast. Selectively applied on columns and down stand beams, rich orange features emphasize the room’s construction by adding special touches to it. While the colour fields’ strict geometries convey an architectural feel, lively colours and some ironic twists - like the carpet in the conference room that merges into the wall - immediately contradict the serious appearance.

浓烈的色彩运用使整座办公空间散发出轻松，甚至回家般的舒适感。墙边的低柜和其上摆放的画框、巨大灯罩下面的座椅，以及波浪形的窗帘盒，都使空间中的异地穿越感更加强烈。

Thanks to intense colouring, the studio provides a relaxed and almost home-like atmosphere. Sideboards with pictures, a cozy seating area sheltered by a large lampshade and a wavelike curtain blind top off the office’s pleasant feel.
