# Extravagant Creative Workspaces The New Coordiation Asia Office is a High-Class Upgrade By Jordan Sowunmi | Published 2011-06-01 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/coordination-asia References: [thecoolhunter.net](http://www.thecoolhunter.net/article/detail/1947/coordination-asia--shanghai-office) & [coordination-asia](http://www.coordination-asia.com/) Singapore and Berlin-based architecture firm Coordination Asia recently moved from their old office -- a [former textile mill](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cloisters-interiors) -- to a brand-new, glass-covered company headquarters. The new Coordination Asia office building is actually the former headquarters of the [Shanghai Glass Company](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zara-huaihai-road) and the workspace screams of high-class cool. The office space is mostly covered in black and dark-gray paint -- a Coordination Asia trademark -- and features all the accoutrement of grandiose artistic office space. Plush couches, massive, multi-person desks, and vast, open-area working space dominates the office. The floors are an upscale mix of marble and hardwood, the office contains enormous built-in bookshelves and hidden storage areas, all the product of a fortuitous renovation the Shanghai Glass Company incorporated in the 90s. This collection of shots from the new Coordination Asia office stands as a textbook example of a [luxuriously creative office](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cest-ici-design). ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.2/10 - Popularity: 56% | Activity: 63% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Architecture](https://www.trendhunter.com/architecture) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Luxury Office Spaces:** Opportunity for architects and designers to create high-end and modern office spaces that foster creativity and productivity. - **Artistic Work Environment:** Companies can enhance creativity and inspire employees through the design of unique and visually striking office spaces. - **Multi-purpose Workspace:** Designing flexible and adaptable workspaces that allow for collaboration and creativity to flow in the office environment could change the way people work. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Architecture:** Architects could create high-end and modern office spaces that cater to the needs of modern companies. - **Interior Design:** Interior designers can create artistic and visually striking office environments that inspire creativity and productivity. - **Real Estate:** Real estate companies could focus on developing flexible and multi-purpose workspaces that cater to the changing needs of modern businesses. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Vibrant Multi-Level Office Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gensler.md) - [Warm Office Interiors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kinzo-architekten.md) - [Modern Deco Office Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/newgen.md) - [Contrasting Workspace Interiors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/workspace-interior.md) - [Bright Colorful Workshop Offices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/office-sm.md) - [Bright Creative Office Hubs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sauvage-tv.md) - [Studio-Workshop Offices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/banda-agency-kyiv.md) - [Shanghai Marketing Office Refurbishments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-independents.md) - [Inspirational Dubai Office Spaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cest-ici-design.md)
