The new Mercedes-Benz headquarters in Hong Kong is located in a former warehouse for Chivas Regal whiskey and other goods, which set the tone for our initial design approach. Different from traditional headquarters, the office creatively defines luxury through splendid views over the bay, an open loft-style working environment and various casual activity areas spread over two floors, all set against an industrial yet welcoming warehouse environment.
Based on our designers’ understanding of the brand’s motto, “The Best or Nothing,” we have created an office free of hierarchies that fosters collaboration and cross-border communication. A palate of surfaces including black, wood notes and orange and grey tones, all of which are embedded into the white tonality of the existing concrete structure of the warehouse, represent the brand’s elegance and corporate style, Highlights are created with the use of color accents from custom artwork installations, carefully selected product images and a number of specially selected colorful furniture and light installations.
