The new CIFI Group office space is designed by 10 Degrees Design and the overall aesthetic reflects the water that it is surrounded by. The office is surrounded by waves as it rests on an island and it starts off with the entrance as the floor to the opening is adorned with ripples that disappear as they move outward.
Additional references to the water theme can also be seen in the form of large bronze drops that are hanging from the ceiling to capture the concept that time is being frozen. The designers at the studio note that "Each part is artistically related to the element, water. It is hoped that guests can enjoy leisure time in the space where the atmosphere of cities and nature coexist harmoniously."
