Appreciation towards Dubbeldam Architecture + Design for providing the following description:

Slack是全球成长最快的科技公司，它创建于旧金山，致力于为企业提供创新型团队沟通的应用程序。在数年的时间里，Slack已经在全球多个城市成立了公司，包括温哥华、纽约、墨尔本、伦敦以及都柏林。这些办公室均由旧工业建筑改造而来，在维护建筑本质的同时为之注入了新的活力，这也呼应了Slack以沟通、团结和技术为核心的价值取向。在多伦多的新办公室项目中，Slack希望打造一个富于想象力的空间，使之能够体现出公司文化及其与工艺和技术之间的关系。办公室位于多伦多市中心的一栋中高层建筑当中，建筑原先是一间纺织工厂，结合建筑的历史背景以及公司的工作文化，建筑师对内部的三层空间进行了重新设计，使其充分满足了一间21世纪科技公司的功能需求。

Slack, the world’s fastest growing tech company in history, is a San Francisco based startup offering a revolutionary team communication app for business. After just a handful of years, the company had already opened offices around the globe including Vancouver, New York, Melbourne, London, and Dublin. Each office occupies a former industrial building with interiors that honour the property’s legacy, renew its productivity, and reflect Slack’s values of empathy, solidarity, and craftsmanship. For their Toronto location Slack sought to create an imaginative space that reflected their company culture and its relationship with craft and technology. Set in a former knitting and textile factory in the heart of downtown Toronto, three storeys within the interior of this mid-rise brick and beam building were redesigned to meet all the needs of a twenty-first century tech company, inspired both by the building’s heritage and the company’s work culture.

设计团队以“沟通流线”为线索，在空间中置入了一系列线性的几何元素，例如呈锯齿状连续分布的固定灯具，以及贯穿天花板与墙壁的彩色网络电缆。这一做法不仅使人回忆起机械纺织中常用的纱线，更呼应了通讯程序本身的服务性质。接待区域由项目团队与长期合作伙伴Kathryn Walter（来自Felt Studio）共同设计，具有工业质感的斜线元素令使用者在进入办公室的瞬间便能感到一种温暖友好的氛围。

The project team drew from a “threads of communication” concept using linear geometries throughout the space, such as continuous angular light fixtures and coloured networking cables running through the length of the office on the ceiling and walls. These enliven the space in an homage to the lines of yarn that were used in the mechanized knitting process, while also referencing the communication service of the messaging application itself. In the reception area, the design team worked with long-term collaborator Kathryn Walter of Felt Studio who wrapped diagonal strips of industrial felt along the walls and ceiling, creating a warm and inviting environment as soon as you step into the office.

大胆的用色为室内空间赋予了特征。对比强烈的色彩定义出不同的功能区域，包括独立工作站、电话亭、会议室、员工休息室以及行政会议室等。每个区域分别对应了Slack品牌中的一种颜色，在强化公司形象的同时带来视觉上的乐趣，同时平衡了砖墙和木地板的黄色色调。

A feature characteristic of the interior is the bold, contrasting pops of colour that demarcate distinct areas including solitary work stations, phone booths, break-out meeting rooms, a staff lounge and sleek executive boardroom. Each zone corresponds to a single colour that comprises Slack’s branding, reinforcing company identity while also providing visual interest and relief to the otherwise yellow tones of the brick and wood interiors. Meeting rooms are uniform yet each unique, owing to their bold and varied colour scheme.

彩色的隔音墙板与带有图案的地毯和独特的家具相互搭配，多角度的灯具贯穿了整个天花板，将工作区域和会议区域连接起来。宽阔的公共咖啡厅仍旧延续了直线的主题，使用了由木板斜向铺设的白色饰面。不同的空间能够满足140位员工的使用需求，同时为办公室赋予连贯性和统一性。最终，项目为一个陈旧的空间注入了新鲜血液，使其在作为严肃办公场所的同时也为员工带来有趣而舒适的环境。

Throughout, vibrantly coloured acoustic wall paneling matches textured carpeting and distinctive furniture pieces. The angular light fixtures appear to thread through the ceiling, knitting workspaces and meeting rooms together. The large communal cafe picks up on the linear theme again with its white and wood diagonal slat finish. The interiors are varied enough to meet the functional requirements of 140 employees, but they also bring a sense of continuity and community to the workplace. The result is a fresh take on an old space that is serious about work while offering a playful and comfortable space for its employees to succeed.
