A verdant spine anchors the spatial organisation of an office inspired by both natural landforms and vernacular forms/materials. The spatial organisation is anchored by a linear architectural datum which incorporates storage, shelving, printing station, a meeting niche and an overhanging spine of flora. The aesthetics of the greenery draws inspiration from the tropical rainforest, reflective of the flora in this region. The spine also manages the different work flows of the modern compact office by defining work zones and circulations while accommodating pockets of wild nature.
