PRIVATE SCHOOL ADMISSIONS HEADQUARTERS BEIJING

COMMERCIAL MAY 2018

BEIJING, CHINA 11,000 SF

Perched on the 31st floor of the famous Pangu Plaza Tower in China’s capital city, this headquarters has amazing views of the mountains in the distance and the surrounding Beijing area. Right outside is the famous Olympic Park Water Cube and Bird’s Nest stadiums.  Eleven of Eleven laid out the program and designed the spaces to make the most of these views, and to take advantage of the daylight from the expansive floor-to-ceiling windows.  

The glass entry welcomes prospective students and their parents to the space and sets the tone for learning more about this school’s exceptional education and program.  We created a beautiful white oak wall to frame the reception area and main conference room.  The wall discreetly hides necessary storage, technology and access to the office area. The oak is continued throughout the 11,000 square feet in elements like flooring, door pulls and furnishings to connect and add warmth to the rooms. 

Eleven of Eleven designed a bright open office to accommodate hoteling and personal desks.  Officers and staff from around the world will share this space with the local team. 

Off of the reception lobby is a short corridor flanked by interview rooms and small meeting spaces.

Sheer curtains, cork walls, and inlaid carpets soften and accent these rooms. 

We created a large cafe for daily tea service and parent hospitality events. We prioritized a natural and comfortable flow from the interview rooms to the cafe to main presentation room allowing for easy set up and use on special occasions.
