Cherubic 一詞出自聖經，意為天使，象徵心元資本創投幫助他人的工作宗旨，因此在空間設計上環繞著此主題呈現出獨有的氛圍。「一個不像辦公室的辦公室」，業主最初便如此開宗明義，在鬧中取靜的巷弄中，心元資本創投建立台北的基地，此空間是為了讓時常往返於各國之間的夥伴們，回到台灣能有個激發創意或休息的空間，希望自由無拘束的...工作模式反映在空間的規劃上。
大範圍玻璃為隔屏，使光線無阻的進入，且放大了空間感，營造出隨意自在的動線。整個基地劃分為兩區，一側為工作區，以家具界定機能，會議室放置在外側區塊，除了作為公司對外形象，也方便演示創意發想，天井造型的燈源與戶外天井相呼應，面向街道一側櫃體能提供創意產品的展示，需要私密性時也能改變層板方向作為遮屏。主建築內除了一般的桌椅辦公區，還設置了站立工作區，使用者能藉著這些設計選擇舒適的工作姿勢；另一側則是休閒區塊，原本採光較差的庭院鑿開了天井種植樹木，引入明亮天光。
水泥、木材、磚為空間中主要的素材，象徵心元資本創投幫助夢想家草創公司，主建築的天花板設計為天使翅膀造型，與其自我期許相呼應，而建築物底端設計了一道紅磚牆，象徵台灣建築的特色與在地精神。此外，心元資本創投的代表色為藍色，如同天使翱翔的藍天，點綴於形象牆文字、衛生間地磚與會議桌。設計充分發揮了「圓夢、飛行、天光」的意象，體現心元資本創投的核心精神。
A free urban working base.
The term “Cherubic” derives from the Bible as the name of an angel. To symbolize Cherubic Ventures’s mission statement of helping the people, the design revolved around this theme and created an unique atmosphere.
“An office unlike an office” was what the owner determined its nature would be in the beginning. In a quiet alley surrounded by a busy world, Cherubic Venture established its base in Taipei. This base was built with the purpose to provide the often traveling partners a space to spark creativity or rest, with the hope of reflecting a free, unrestrained work style on the planning of the architecture’s space.
On the exterior, large panes of glass were used as interfaces to allow light beams enter freely, augmenting the sense of connection to the city. Internally, the space is divided into two sections. At one side is the working area, with furnitures defining its function. The meeting room is located at the outer area with the purpose of not only serving as an image of the enterprise but also convenient for demonstrating creative brainstorming. Atrium-shaped lights echoes with the atrium outdoor. The cabinets facing the side of the street could serve as a display for the creative products, while the shelves are also reversible in case privacy is needed.
Concrete, lumber, and bricks are the main building materials. This symbolizes that Cherubic Ventures are willing to help dreamers start their businesses from scratch. The main building’s ceiling design adopts the wings of an angel, signifying self-expectation. At the bottom of the building, a red brick wall was designed to represent the Taiwanese architectural culture and localism. Additionally, Cherubic Ventures’s representing color is blue. Like the blue sky where the angels soar, the color can be seen on the image wall, on the restrooms’ floor tiles, and on the meeting tables. The designs thoroughly conveyed the idea of “Fulfillment, Flight, Skylight”, manifesting the core values of Cherubic Ventures.
