Text description provided by the architects. History dances with sustainability and modern elegance in the new Chancery House workspace for The Office Group in the heart of London's lively Midtown. The meticulously revitalized nine-story heritage building stands tall as a timeless testament to the city's enduring charm. Perched elegantly atop the labyrinthine London Silver Vaults, an underground treasure trove of the city's rich history, this architectural gem exudes an enchanting fusion of heritage and contemporary design. It's a place where the subtle whispers of time harmonize with the vibrant energy of today, creating a unique atmosphere. Step inside to discover a palette of colors and materials that reflect the city's vibrant tapestry, while the essence of the building evokes a sense of serenity, echoing the ever-evolving rhythm of modern life.

Chancery House超越了传统的办公空间概念，是the office Group迄今为止最雄心勃勃的项目，占地16000平方米，倡导可持续发展，并拥有“BREEAM优秀”认证，将灵活性和幸福感置于其设计的最前沿。dMFK Architects与The Office Group合作完成了第九个项目，对原有建筑进行了翻新、重新配置和扩建，并与Norm Architects合作交付了室内建筑，共同展示了全面和美观的工作场所方法的可能性和必要性。这座建筑高达九层，现在证明了新旧建筑的无缝融合，毫不费力地将遗产与当代设计融为一体。集体精神的核心是共同关心用户的愿望，编织出复杂的设计，不仅能吸引感官，还能营造出宁静而诱人的氛围。我们的信念在于，建筑师和设计师承担着一项基本责任：让用户茁壮成长——塑造一个以人类为中心的世界。这需要对设计选择有深刻的理解，这些选择与个人的整体福祉产生了最深刻的共鸣，并扩大了他们对更广泛的社区和环境的积极影响。这不仅仅是创造空间；这是关于营造与美好生活的本质产生共鸣的环境，无论是对个人还是他们所居住的相互联系的世界。
Transcending the conventional concept of office space, Chancery House stands as The Office Group's most ambitious venture to date – a sprawling 16.000 sqm residence that champions sustainability and boasts a 'BREEAM Excellent' certification, placing flexibility and well-being at the forefront of its design. Working on their ninth project with The Office Group, dMFK Architects have refurbished, reconfigured, and extended the original building, collaborating with Norm Architects to deliver the interior architecture – together demonstrating the possibility and necessity of a comprehensive and aesthetically pleasing approach to the workplace. Rising nine stories high, this architectural site now stands as a testament to the seamless integration of the old and the new, effortlessly fusing heritage with contemporary design. Central to the collective spirit is a shared desire to care for the user, weaving intricate designs that not only engage the senses but also cultivate a serene and inviting ambiance. Our conviction lies in the belief that architects and designers bear a fundamental responsibility: to empower users to thrive – to sculpt a world that revolves around humanity. This entails a profound understanding of the design choices that resonate most profoundly with the holistic well-being of individuals and extend their positive influence on the broader community and environment. It's not just about creating spaces; it's about crafting environments that resonate with the very essence of what it means to live well, both for the individual and the interconnected world they inhabit.

从一开始，the Office Group就明确表示了打造一流灵活工作空间的雄心壮志，专注于内部和外部设施、健康、优质共享空间、会议室、焦点展位、健身房等。其目的不仅是提供一系列非凡的服务，而且还要巧妙地围绕这些服务设计空间，高度重视用户的舒适度和幸福感。在我们的追求中，我们深入研究了周围环境对我们的感官、情绪和整体舒适度的深远影响，认识到现代工作环境应该是一个适应人类复杂情感的避难所——一个补充家庭办公室可能缺乏的工作场所。这是关于利用设计为人们提供多种机会，将幸福融入工作生活的日常结构中，并成为他们日常生活的一部分。这种精神体现在周到的设施提供上，从有机餐厅到高质量的旅行结束设施。此外，我们通过为健身房、瑜伽室和公共会议区等空间注入自然采光、绿地景观和清新空气来挑战现状——这些元素通常被归入光线昏暗的地下室。这种对细节的刻意关注反映了我们对认真对待健康的坚定承诺，并将工作空间转变为一个人们可以全面发展的领域。因此，我们的集体努力一直致力于将幸福感注入每个角落，无缝地弥合外部和内部之间的差距。无论是专门的健康区还是简单的会议室，我们的追求都以平衡为中心主题——一种微妙而舒适的平衡，在不诉诸华丽或过于戏剧化的设计的情况下，调动所有感官。
From the very outset, The Office Group was clear in its ambitions to create a best-in-class flexible workspace, focused on internal and external amenities, wellness, quality shared space, meeting rooms, focus booths, gyms and more. The aim was not just to offer an extraordinary array of services but also to ingeniously design spaces around these offerings, placing a profound emphasis on user comfort and well-being. In our pursuit, we delved into the profound impact our surroundings exert on our senses, mood, and overall ease, recognizing that a modern work environment should be a sanctuary attuned to the intricacies of human sensibility – a workplace that complements what your home office might lack. It's about using the design to give people multiple opportunities to bring well-being into the daily fabric of work life and to form part of their everyday. This ethos is exemplified in the thoughtful provision of amenities, ranging from an organic restaurant to high-quality end-of-trip facilities. Additionally, we've challenged the status quo by infusing spaces like the gym, yoga studio, and communal meeting areas with natural daylight, views of green spaces, and invigorating fresh air – elements often relegated to dimly lit basements. This deliberate attention to detail reflects our unwavering commitment to taking wellness seriously and transforming the workspace into a realm where people can thrive holistically. Thus, our collective efforts have been dedicated to infusing well-being into every nook and cranny, seamlessly bridging the gap between exterior and interior. Whether it's a dedicated wellness area or a simple meeting room, our pursuit has been guided by the central theme of balance – a nuanced and comfortable equilibrium that engages all the senses without resorting to flashy or overly dramatic design.

我们认为，幸福设计的本质不在于华丽的表达或炫耀的特征，而在于营造和谐的环境。为了实现这一目标，我们利用自然形态、材料和颜色的力量来构建不仅外观和感觉良好，而且经得起时间考验的空间。软硬材料的相互作用，如纺织品和砖块的融合，创造了一个不仅能刺激用户，还能散发出温馨的空间，这对在空间范围内工作和放松都是必不可少的。其结果是一个精心策划的室内设计，类似于一幅令人着迷的城市背景微型画，让你在不离开房子的情况下就能感受到社区的特色。每一笔设计和每一个精心挑选的元素都汇集在一起，创造了一个满足多种需求的工作空间——无论是功能还是美学，同时体现了设计和环境责任之间的和谐。通过将设计简化到其本质，并有意关注其感官影响，我们为杂乱的现代环境和匆忙的生活引入了急需的宁静。这在我们的工作环境中和在家中一样重要。因此，当偏爱源自天然材料的中性色调时，我们的目标是创造永恒而平静的设计，通过自然光和阴影、悦耳的声音、气味和空气、相关的形式和空隙以及舒适的空间流动，提供即时的舒适感，并突出温暖、触感和质量的细节，我们参与了普遍的情感，不受文化或地理的限制。通过这种方式，我们希望与所有用户交流，并在未来许多年保持相关性。
We believe that the essence of designing for well-being lies not in grandiose expressions or ostentatious features but in cultivating a harmonious environment. To achieve this, we've harnessed the power of natural forms, materials, and colors to construct spaces that not only look and feel good but also stand the test of time. The interplay of soft and hard materials, like the fusion of textiles and bricks, creates a space that not only stimulates the user but also radiates a welcoming warmth, essential for both work and relaxation within the confines of the space. The result is a curated interior akin to a mesmerizing miniature painting of the urban context, allowing you to feel the character of the neighborhood without having even left the house. Each brushstroke of design and every carefully chosen element come together to create a workspace that caters to a plethora of needs – be they functional as well as aesthetic, while embodying a harmony between design and environmental responsibility. By reducing design to its essentials and by being intentional about its sensorial impacts, we introduce a much-needed stillness to our cluttered, modern environments and hurried lives. This is just as important in our work environment as in our homes. So, when favoring a neutral palette derived from natural materials, we aim to create timeless and calming designs that provide an immediate sense of comfort and highlight details of warmth, tactility, and quality by working natural light and shadow, pleasant sounds smell and air, relatable forms and voids as well as comfortable spatial flows, we engage with sensibilities that are universal, not bound by culture or geography. This way, we hope to speak to all users and remain relevant for many years to come.

室内设计采用了一种深思熟虑的方法，注入了让人联想到该网站独特个性的元素，采用了平静而诚实的材料调色板。凭借红砖、砂岩和混凝土等现有立面的特点，我们向建筑遗产致敬，同时采用拉丝抛光不锈钢，向伦敦银金库的魅力致敬——这是一个可追溯到19世纪的地下市场，坐落在大法官府的正下方。尽管如此，颜色和材料的选择超出了建筑的范围，有意识地参考了更广泛的城市环境，唤起了一种温暖、舒适和触觉的感觉。通过这种方式，我们试图将过去无缝地融入现在，反映出原始结构的精神。从建筑的本质出发，我们的愿景是创造一个不仅尊重该地区特色，而且体现其精神的空间——一个植根于其背景的中心，与所服务的社区相连。通过使用材料，对历史的致敬被融入到每一个细节中，成为对丰富遗产的永恒提醒，这些遗产激励并告知了现在的建筑。在一楼，您将进入一个引人注目的接待区，这里有家的感觉和触觉材料。外部的本质似乎已经无缝地融入了内部——一种共生关系，建筑的红砖优雅地向内延伸，成为空间不可或缺的一部分，因为它们形成了台阶、地板和墙壁。
Taking a deliberate and thoughtful approach to infuse elements reminiscent of the site's unique character, the interior design embraces a calming and honest material palette. With features of the existing facade like red brick, sandstone, and concrete, we pay tribute to the architectural legacy while implementing brushed and polished stainless steel as an homage to the allure of the London Silver Vaults – a subterranean market dating back to the 19th century that is nestled just below the Chancery House. Still, the color and material choices extend beyond the building, consciously referencing the wider urban setting to invoke a sense of warmth, comfort, and tactility. This way, we sought to seamlessly integrate the past into the present, mirroring the spirit of the original structure. Drawing from the essence of the building, the vision was to create a space that not only respected the area's character but also embodied its spirit – a hub grounded in its context, connecting with the community it served. By use of materials, a nod to history was hence woven into every detail, serving as a timeless reminder of the rich legacy that inspires and informs the present architecture. On the ground floor, you'll enter a striking reception area with a homey feel and a tactile materiality. The essence of the exterior seems to have seamlessly transcended into the interior – a symbiosis where the red bricks of the building gracefully extend inward, becoming an integral part of the space as they form steps, floors, and walls.

正是在接待区，我们对建筑的想法与精心策划的元素和材料充分结合在一起，在当地环境中产生了舒适感和基础感。所有这些都位于庭院之间，带来了绿地和充足的自然光，我们精心地将室内与室外融为一体，而木屏风和舒适的座椅则为工作、交流和享受创造了轻松的区域。在这里，我们展示了我们对幸福设计的看法；这不是关于最大限度的表达和戏剧性的设计特征，而是关于在室内创造一种舒适的平衡，与我们所有的感官对话。舒适的座位安排分散在一楼，营造了一个轻松的公共环境，支持工作、联系和休闲时刻。这些区域旨在容纳重点工作会议和休闲互动，在工作空间内培养平衡感和适应性，这是办公室小组存在的核心。木质屏风墙巧妙地放置在一楼的公共工作区周围，营造出温暖而诱人的氛围，在不牺牲空间开放、公共精神的情况下营造出一种封闭感。由Norm Architects为Labofa设计的舒适办公椅环绕着整个房间的长公共桌子，形成了一个舒适与生产力相结合的环境。当人们围坐在桌子旁进行头脑风暴、构思或只是平静地工作时，这个空间提供了完美的环境，以风格和便利的方式支持他们的努力。这是一个思想自由流动、舒适与功能融为一体的地方。认识到自该建筑最后一次出现以来，工作世界已经发生了变化，Chancery House有意识地进行了开发，为人们在工作场所的时间和地点提供了真正的选择。
It is in the reception area where our idea for the building comes together in full force with its curated elements and materials, resulting in a sense of comfort and grounding in the local context. All situated between the courtyards bringing in greenery and an abundance of natural light, we carefully blend the indoors with the outdoors, while timber screens and comfortable seating create relaxed zones for working, connecting, and enjoying. Here, we show our take on designing for well-being; it isn't about maximum expression and dramatic design features, it is about creating a comfortable balance in the interiors that speak to all our senses. Comfortable seating arrangements are scattered around the ground floor, encouraging a relaxed and communal environment that supports work, connections, and moments of leisure. These zones are designed to accommodate both focused work sessions and casual interactions, fostering a sense of balance and adaptability within the workspace which is at the heart of The Office Group's raison d'etre. Wooden screen walls, strategically placed around a common working area on the ground floor, lend a warm and inviting atmosphere, creating a sense of enclosure without sacrificing the open, communal spirit of the space. Comfortable office chairs, designed by Norm Architects for Labofa, encircle the long communal table that stretches across the room, forming an environment where comfort meets productivity. As individuals gather around the table to brainstorm, ideate, or simply work in peace, the space provides the perfect setting to support their endeavors in style and convenience. It's a place where ideas flow freely, and where comfort and function blend. Recognizing that the world of work has changed since the building's last incarnation, Chancery House has been consciously developed to deliver real choice in how and where people spend time in the workplace.

一家充满活力和热情的咖啡馆向员工招手，为他们提供了一个从工作日的需求中解脱出来的喘息机会。沐浴在自然光的温柔怀抱中，内部的氛围证明了细致的设计和材料选择。调色板经过精心挑选，以反映周围城市景观的色调和纹理。柔和的泥土色调，在咖啡馆和窗外城市的活力之间建立了有机的联系。无论是需要快速喝杯咖啡，还是需要一个安静的角落来处理电子邮件，或者需要一张公共桌子来交流想法，一楼的咖啡馆都能满足所有人的需求。这是一个城市的活力在室内找到的地方。这家咖啡馆坐落在繁华的城市中心，每一口优质咖啡和每一口有机食品都体现了宁静和幸福。窗户勾勒出庭院和伦敦街景的宁静景色，而砂岩柜台沐浴在柔和的光线中，与玻璃外的立面相呼应。人们走下华丽的钢楼梯，被带下楼，开始了一段象征性的旅程，进入历史悠久的银金库。从上面楼层的红色色调转变为金色色调，标志着空间氛围和目的的转变。在这个新环境的核心，一个巨大的共享工作台占据了整个空间，大胆地展现了该地区的宽敞和协作精神。它呼吁个人走到一起，分享想法，建立新的联系。然而，这个地方提供的不仅仅是一个公共工作空间。你会发现隐蔽的角落，经过精心设计，适合沉浸和安静的谈话，为那些寻求专注、沉思或亲密讨论的人提供了一个地方。
A vibrant and welcoming cafe beckons to employees, offering a respite from the demands of the workday. Bathed in the gentle embrace of natural light, the ambiance within is a testament to meticulous design and material choices. The color palette has been carefully selected to mirror the hues and textures of the surrounding cityscape. Soft, earthy tones, create an organic connection between the cafe and the vibrant energy of the city just beyond its windows. Whether in need of a quick coffee, a quiet corner to catch up on emails, or a communal table to exchange ideas, the ground-floor cafe caters to all. It's a place where the city's vitality finds its way indoors. Nestled within the heart of the bustling city, the cafe embodies tranquility and well-being in every sip of quality coffee and every bite of organic food. Windows frame the calm view of the courtyard as well as the London streetscape, while the sandstone counter, bathed in the soft light streaming in, echoes the very facade you can glimpse just beyond the glass. Descending a magnificent steel staircase, people are led downstairs, embarking on a symbolic journey into the historic Silver Vaults. Shifting from the red hues of the levels above, the bricks used on the floor transition to a more golden tone, signifying a shift in the ambiance and purpose of the space. At the heart of this new setting, an enormous co-working table takes up the space, making a bold statement about the spaciousness and collaborative spirit of the area. It calls for individuals to come together, share ideas, and forge new connections. Yet, this place offers much more than just a communal workspace. You'll discover secluded nooks thoughtfully designed for immersion and quiet conversation, providing a place for those who seek focus, contemplation, or intimate discussions.

此外，该空间证明了the Office Group对福祉的整体方法。一个设备无可挑剔的健身房邀请个人保持身体健康，一个健康区召唤着放松和恢复活力，一个宁静的瑜伽工作室提供了一个寻找内心平衡的宁静空间。在这些象征性的“银色金库”中，员工发现自己沉浸在一个尊重生产力、宁静和社区的空间中。在当今快节奏、要求苛刻的世界中，工作场所的健康和幸福变得至关重要。它们不仅仅是流行语，还代表了我们对待工作和生活方式的根本转变。办公室小组知道，对工作中健康的关注远远超出了符合人体工程学的椅子和立式办公桌。它还包括员工的身体、心理和情感健康。因此，在大法官之家，我们创造了空间来断开连接，在锻炼中提高心率，或者在瑜伽课上放慢速度深呼吸。将健康倡议纳入工作场所是一项有回报的投资。因此，一个培养和包容的工作场所，让员工在整体幸福感方面感受到支持，将更加敬业、健康、更有弹性。考虑到这一点，我们努力创造出耳语而不是大喊大叫的极简主义设计，通过触觉和明暗平衡以及少即是多的颜色、纹理和形状方法创造出低调温暖和亲密的空间——易于接近、简单易用。充分利用dMFK Architects将采光井延伸到地下室的出色举措，我们可以设计出有日光、新鲜空气、绿色景观和上层建筑的健身房。我们广泛使用木材作为地板和细木工制品，搭配透明窗帘和浅灰色调，使空间变得轻盈温暖，更类似于瑜伽静修，而不是普通健身房。
Moreover, the space is a testament to The Office Group's holistic approach to well-being. An impeccably equipped gym invites individuals to maintain their physical health, a wellness area beckons for relaxation and rejuvenation, and a serene yoga studio offers a tranquil space for finding inner balance. In these symbolic 'silver vaults', employees find themselves immersed in a space that honors productivity, serenity, and community. Wellness and well-being in the workplace have become paramount in today's fast-paced, demanding world. More than just buzzwords, they represent a fundamental shift in how we approach work and life. The Office Group knows that a focus on wellness at work extends far beyond ergonomic chairs and standing desks. It encompasses the physical, mental, and emotional health of employees as well. At the Chancery House, we've therefore created spaces to disconnect, get the heart rate up in a workout or slow down and breathe deeply at a yoga class. Incorporating wellness initiatives into the workplace is an investment that pays dividends. Hence, a nurturing and inclusive workplace, where employees feel supported in their overall well-being will be more engaged, healthier, and more resilient. With this in mind, we worked to create minimalist designs that whisper rather than shout, spaces with understated warmth and intimacy created through tactility and a balancing of light and dark as well as a less-is-more approach to colors, textures and shapes – accessible, simple and easy to use. Making the most of dMFK Architects' brilliant move to extend the light wells into the basement, we could design the gym with daylight, fresh air, and views of greenery and the levels above. Our extensive use of timber for flooring and joinery paired with sheer curtains and light grey tones has given the space a lightness and warmth which is more akin to that of yoga retreats than regular gyms.

在大多数楼层，你会发现不同风格和大小的会议室。这些都是做出重要决定、分享想法和加强合作的地方。此外，拥有一个安静的环境，尽量减少干扰，有助于团队集中注意力，提高工作效率。光幕和郁郁葱葱的地毯不仅具有装饰性，还有助于在改善声学效果的同时为室内提供框架，这在当今人们参与来自世界各地的会议时更为重要。我们非常注意正确地确定空间的大小和位置，分解规模，并提供大量的工作空间选项，以便用户能够不断改变他们的工作方式，或找到适合他们的特定空间。往下看，你会看到dMFK Architect对建筑的重新配置是如何在几个楼层上确保露天露台的，以确保总有一个露天的地方可以放松身心，让场景焕然一新，同时也提供了充足的自然采光。内部和外部之间的和谐联系证明了dMFK Architects和Norm Architects对细节的细致关注和成功的合作。从本质上讲，衡平法院大楼的内外不仅通过材料的选择，而且通过对协作和设计技巧的深刻叙述，真正交织在一起，营造出一种视觉上令人惊叹、意义深远的氛围。
Spread across most floors, you'll find meeting rooms of different characters and sizes. These are all places for important decisions to be made, ideas to be shared, and collaborations to be strengthened. Moreover, having a quiet environment with minimal distractions helps the team focus and be more productive. Light curtains and lush carpets aren't just decorative, they help frame the interior while improving the acoustics, which is even more important today when people tap into meetings from all over the world. A great deal of care was taken to size and position spaces correctly, break down the scale, and offer a huge range of workspace options so that users are constantly able to change the way they work, or find a particular space that suits them. Looking down towards the building, you'll see how dMFK Architect's reconfiguration of the building has secured open-air terraces on several levels to ensure that there's always somewhere alfresco to retreat to for a mind-refreshing change of scene – while also providing an abundance of natural daylight inside. The harmonious connection between the interior and exterior is a testament to the meticulous attention to detail and the successful collaboration between dMFK Architects and Norm Architects. In essence, the inside and outside of Chancery House are truly intertwined not just through the choice of materials but also through a profound narrative of collaboration and design finesse, creating an atmosphere that is both visually stunning and deeply meaningful.
