NHN Green Factory is the headquarters of the NHN Corporation, a Korean internet service provider.[3]
Architecture
The steel and glass façade houses adjustable vertical louvers which restrict or allow sunlight to enter the building. At night the façade displays different messages, shapes or the NHN logo as internal light is selectively blocked by a nocturnal automated louver system.[4]
The interior of the building was designed to provide as open an environment as possible. The intent was to create spaces or zones which foster better communication between employees. Green Factory’s office spaces are designed like pods, which focus on a central open meeting area, and have meeting rooms, mailboxes, canteens, and tables for meetings. Most of the central meeting spaces have non-traditional furniture and continue the casual theme found throughout the rest of the interior. The emergency stairs sport different patterns or designs instead of the typical painted concrete finish. [5] The top floor is home to the community café and a small garden/recreation space.[6]
