Comment
In this project, we considered how to improve the facility environment, which has remained largely unchanged since its completion, to better suit the current working styles of our staff. We designed the facility while considering what the future of university staff work should look like and what kind of student support center would be optimal for both staff and students.
Based on the pillars of "flexibility," "cross-departmental communication," and "improvement of student services," we introduced new initiatives for universities in both hardware and software aspects.
In the rapidly changing university market, we hope to continue to be a flexible administrative office that adapts to the times and provides a comfortable working environment for our staff.
