Tommy Bahama 西雅图办公室

在2005年Tommy Bahama刚刚搬入西雅图南湖联合区时，这间仅有200人不到的公司，却坐拥着78,000平房英尺的超大办公空间。随着公司员工的倍数增长，一个充满设计感和商业化环境的室内空间便成为了当下所需。全新的办公空间不仅要满足办公环境的一切功能要求，还必须符合该企业的核心价值和企业宗旨。

When Tommy Bahama first moved to the South Lake Union neighborhood of Seattle in 2005, it had fewer than 200 employees occupying roughly 78,000-square-feet of space. With a headcount now twice that, designing and building a commercial interior that not only accommodated this tremendous progress, but also stayed true to their core values as a company was at the forefront of the project team’s vision.

受Tommy Bahama企业“Make Life One Long Weekend”理念的鼓舞，该栋建筑面积120,000平方英尺的办公建筑设计完美突显了企业的成功秘诀，即植根于海岛的悠闲生活与鲜活态度。办公室内充斥着天然的材料和丰富的材质纹理，如织物覆盖着粗糙的石面墙壁等。开放自由的内部环境营造出放松舒适的办公氛围，颠覆了人们所认知的当代办公环境。该办公室设计聚焦使用者的空间体验，并力图充分展现企业及其产品的价值和性格属性。席卷各层的木板楼梯间将整栋建筑整合为统一的空间体系，带领来访者从底层大厅和接待处逐渐捕步入展厅、商店和协作办公区域。

Inspired by the Tommy Bahama ethos to “Make Life One Long Weekend,” the new 120,000-square-foot office design builds upon the attributes that have made Tommy Bahama so successful—the embodiment of island life and casual sophistication. The spaces feature a natural material palette and rich textures such as woven fabric wall coverings and rough-honed stone. And the open, casual setting fosters a relaxing environment in which to work, a place not unlike a modern beach house. The design is focused on the user experience and reflects the attributes found throughout the brand and its products. A grand “boardwalk” serves to organize the space, drawing guests from the main lobby and reception to the showroom and mock store, and the collaborative workspaces.

临时休息场所散布在楼梯两侧，为来访者和使用者提供了非正式的会面和洽谈空间。大量的玻璃开窗使得办公室内部充斥在明亮的自然光下，三面巨大的内部天井，让建筑各层获得更加通透室内环境的同时，也增加了各层间的透视效果。灵活的办公环境让使用者根据各部门的工作需求进行空间的自由归置。该设计将接待处和休息空间置于四层建筑的中央媒介处，使雇员与来访者获得了良好的空间互动，使企业员工栖息在沉浸式的办公环境和企业文化里。

Casual seating areas along the boardwalk, provide opportunities for informal gathering. Natural light floods into the offices through ample exterior glazing and most notably via three large, fully-glazed monitors, which project into the circulation space and visually connect each floor to the market hall below. Flexible work spaces allow users to tailor their environment based on departmental and team requirements. By locating reception and amenities on an intermediate level of the company’s four floors, employee interaction and social engagement is essentially ensured. The end result is an immersive environment that represents the brand through design.

社区意识是Tommy Bahama企业的核心内容。通过租用大楼的最下四层，Tommy Bahama企业得以实现与周边社区物理与视觉上的良好互动，避免了与社区环境的隔离感。办公空间内部的巨大采光井和良好的视觉连通性进一步强化和呼应了这一社区联系。临时休息区和办公区围绕采光井而设，鼓励来访者和使用者在此闲坐交谈。为了使雇员能够更好的观察下层卖场的活动情况，设计加强了采光井在各个层面的进光量。

Sense of community takes center stage at Tommy Bahama. By electing to lease the floors in the podium of the building, rather than upper floors in the tower, Tommy Bahama was able to create and reinforce physical and visual connections to the community for its employees. Visual access to the market hall at the base of the building through the large four-story light monitors which engage each of the floors, symbolizes this connection. Breakout and workspaces were designed around these light monitors to encourage gathering. In addition to providing employees the opportunity to observe activity in the market hall, the monitors dramatically increase the amount of natural daylight that comes into each floor.

建筑主层面积达1,000平方英尺的大型咖啡休闲空间和分布于各层的咖啡休闲区，给予雇员们随时随地的休闲享受。此外，大型咖啡休闲区与1500平方英尺的屋顶露台相连，雇员们可在此休闲小憩，俯瞰南湖联合区的社区全貌。定制的办公桌配有工装和材料储藏柜，以及符合人体工程学的座椅、扶手和照明。灵活的项目工作室，合作办公区和创意工作区给予员工激发灵感和奋斗精神的绝佳环境体验。

A large, 1,000-square-foot cafe on the main level and additional coffee bars on each floor, ensure that employees have ready access to conveniences. The large, main level cafe opens out to a 1,500-square-foot roof deck which affords views to the South Lake Union neighborhood and the city. Customized workstations allow for storage of apparel and products under development and feature sit-to-stand desks, ergonomic monitor arms and task lighting. Flexible project work rooms, collaborative work spaces and a rich environment in which to work supports the company’s culture of creativity, ensuring that it can attract and retain the best talent.
