Aworks is a seoul-based design company founded in 2001, with works that range from interior to exhibition to retail design. their latest project called ‘galaxy cottage’ houses a ‘test lab’ for samsung’s electronics design team. at this location, the designers come up with ideas about new products and perform tests and studies. the space is composed of three sections: an archive for products, an area for performance tests done before they are released, and a zone dedicated to discussion and conversation.

每个部分的设计目的是方便于产品的使用以及同事之间的交流和通信。这个概念是给活在虚拟银河系世界里面的人们创造一个空间，想象在宇宙中央有一间小屋。小屋的栅栏转化为墙壁上白色的结构，用来存储信息数据和各式各样的书籍，从而界定外部空间与内部空间的关系。小屋的内部空间被构建为一个三维的多层次空间，用来引导、指导，并积极吸引多项活动的参与和讨论
。
Each section was designed for easy use of products and communication between coworkers. the concept was to generate a space for people living in a virtual world called galaxy, imagining a small cottage in the middle of the universe. the fence of the cottage translates into a white structure on the walls that saves data and various books while defining the relationship with the outside. the interiors of the cabin were created with a three-dimensional multi-level space that leads, guides, and draws positively multiple activities and discussions.
产品的展示和测试区域通过木结构的空间搭建与接待区域进行连接。

an area named ‘pongdang table’ serves both for meetings and as a stage. a multi-leveled space can be used as a stand, where the designers can store products and have a conversation or read a book at the same time. the top part seconds as a runway designed for testing and showing new products. the overall result is a space that makes possible for designers to find better solutions and products by motiving creative activities.
在这个舒适的物联网空间中，类似于家庭中的起居室设计，产品在此空间内进行测试。
