Alphadyne Asset Management, a US-based alternative investment management firm, engaged One Space to design its first Hong Kong office, located within the Grade A tower AIA Central. To construct a space that was formal enough for client meetings yet welcoming and collaborative, we designed an open-plan environment with trading desks located at the heart of the floor plate.

Client meeting suites were positioned to enjoy views across adjoining Chater Garden, whilst the most desirable corner served as a staff Breakout Area with lounge chairs and bar seating. The full-height-glazed perimeter was kept unobstructed to admit ample daylight and views into the floorplate. A fully equipped Wet Pantry, finished in intricate mosaic tiling reminiscent of old-Hong Kong style diners, was situated along the inner wall of the premises. Wall murals painted by artist Pierre Finkelstein exclusively for Alphadyne designated a private passageway from the main entrance to the meeting suites.
