Hong Kong based In-between Architects Limited designed a private investment firm located in the heart of Hong Kong's CBD. With a vision to create a multifunctional space that accommodates art appreciation, private events and more, In-between Architects collaborated with the client to transform their office into a unique and inviting sanctuary.

Architect Ivan Wong Wei-Him took a conceptual approach inspired by the nautical world, paying homage to the company's maritime industry background. The design concept seamlessly blended a sense of luxury yacht living with the vibrancy of a sailing vessel while enhancing the warmth and comfort of the space.

The journey of the office space starts with an entrance foyer gallery. It showcases the client's passion for art through an extensive collection by local artists. Walking through a corridor of captivating artwork, the guests are guided into a welcoming lounge area. The movable furniture allows the flexibility of transitioning the lounge into a private event space that accommodates gatherings and live musical performances.

To achieve the desired ambience of yacht living and home comfort, In-between Architects selected materials like oak flooring and texture paint for the lounge area. Gentle curves throughout the space evoke the feeling of a luxurious vessel but cosy environment.

As the client expressed in the very beginning of the project, ‘I hope the result would look like a home rather than an office, as working with a great team makes one feel like part of a family." In-between Architects is dedicated to bringing this vision to life,creating a space that not only serves as a functional workplace but also nurtures a sense of belonging and togetherness.
