Andrew Chua: June 2008

Yin's Office

Consisting of a multitude of levels complimented by the ventilation, which both reflect the imagery of paper, Yin's office has power embedded.

Everything being made of solid concrete creates the sense of power.

The dogma of a loggia is conformed to in all of Yin's office levels, allowing the all-powerful view unto the insignificant earth waiting to be controlled.

The entrance and exit.

Yin's Thought Space

Absolutely in isolation on top of the bridge, Yin's thought space allows meditation on top of all problems in the world. The monumental sculpture represents domination and power.

In such a location, Yin is able to control her empire with full knowledge of complete power.

Job's Office

Consisting of two parts, Job's office is split to allow different areas for different tasks. Similar to Yin's space the entrance/exit to the meeting space is a narrow staircase separating their spaces and allowing silent, powerful yet equal entrances to the meeting space.

The dogma of 4 enclosed walls, 1 opening and 1 entracnce/exit is practiced in job's foyer.

The same dogma is kept for the office, accessed by a narrow shaft lift.

The importance of the dogma is emphasised by the pulling back of the floor and ceiling, expanding the view to the earth and emphasising power. Job's study desk is integrated into the room overlooking the earth.

Job's Thought Space

This is the space where Jobs can reside in thought over his domination of the world in isolation. This stair allows a view of the earth from the powerful status of being extremely high up.

The rest of the platform is segmented by the large concrete walls, giving an awesome sense of power by their sheer mass. The segmentation also allows space for thinking.

The Meeting Table

Meeting Space

Entering this room gives a dull impression with the low confining ceiling. However the roof proceeds to lift up creating an alluring sense of power increasing the horizon and expansive views.
