The software company Trading Technologies is located in Singapore and its office was designed by the firm 'Kyoob-id.'
In creating the office, the agency wanted a space that "would evoke the emotions of the staff going through the workweek as a means of inspiration." The office features the classic functional areas that most others do, with large meetings rooms, cooperative work stations and small lounge areas throughout. It also offers a creative recreation area where workers are able to relax, make some food and shoot some pool when they need a break. The work and play balance that the office encourages results in a space that inspires those who work in it.
This office provides a divergent design than those usually expected of software companies and does so in a way that promotes both productivity and play.
