QONTIGO | AXIOMA
100 QRC, CENTRAL
Qontigo’s Hong Kong headquarters were designed following its 2022 merger with Axioma, establishing a flexible, tech-enabled workplace in the heart of Central. The office supports hybrid work with hot desks, personal lockers, acoustic phone booths, and a large social pantry. The design reflects Qontigo’s global brand identity through a signature blue feature wall, hexagonal graphics, and clean material finishes.
Despite the challenges of limited natural light and tight timelines, the project was delivered efficiently and remains well-maintained to this day, demonstrating the space’s long-term functionality and design resilience.
Qontigo는 2022년 Axioma와의 합병 이후, 홍콩 센트럴 중심업무지구(CBD)에 새로운 본사를 설립하였습니다. 이 사무실은 하이브리드 업무 환경을 지원하며, 핫데스크, 개인 사물함, 방음 전화 부스, 넓은 소셜 팬트리 등 유연하고 기술 중심의 공간 구성을 특징으로 합니다.
디자인은 시그니처 블루 컬러의 포인트 월과 육각형 그래픽, 깔끔한 마감재를 통해 Qontigo의 글로벌 브랜드 정체성을 반영합니다.
자연광 부족과 촉박한 일정이라는 도전에도 불구하고, 프로젝트는 효율적으로 완수되었으며 현재까지도 잘 유지되고 있어 장기적인 기능성과 디자인의 지속 가능성을 입증하고 있습니다.

CONCEPT & DESIGN INTENT
This project marked the establishment of Qontigo’s new headquarters in Hong Kong’s Central Business District following its merger with Axioma in 2022.
The design vision focused on flexibility, technological integration, and a collaborative work culture. The space was designed to support a hybrid work model, striking a balance between corporate identity, comfort, and agility.
SPATIAL STRATEGY / PLANNING LOGIC
Given the flexible work arrangements of the team, the layout emphasized mobility and versatility:
Hot-desking system supported by personal lockers. Phone booths for video calls and private conversations. A large open pantry for casual interactions and informal meetings. Convertible meeting rooms are designed to maximize usage and adaptability. This created a workspace similar to a co-working environment, suitable for fluctuating occupancy and activity levels.

MATERIALITY & DETAILING
Brand identity was expressed through materials and architectural detailing, featuring a vibrant blue brand wall with hexagonal graphics that reflected Qontigo’s logo and global outlook.
Acoustic panels and private phone booths were also incorporated to manage noise in open areas. Durable dark-toned carpet tiles provide a professional yet comfortable aesthetic. Clean white partitions paired with potted greenery promote a calm, focused atmosphere.
COLLABORATION & CONSTRAINTS
The project extended our longstanding partnership with Axioma and continued seamlessly after the merger with Qontigo. Required close alignment with overseas stakeholders to reflect unified brand identity. The Central District posed daylight access challenges, which were addressed through the use of transparent partitions and strategic spatial configuration. A tight project timeline demanded precise coordination with vendors and internal IT infrastructure deployment
PROJECT GOALS & OUTCOMES
The objective was to deliver a modern, high-performance office space for a leading financial technology firm: Establish a strong brand presence in the heart of Hong Kong’s CBD. Supported flexible work practices and team productivity through thoughtful spatial planning. Delivered a workspace that remains well-maintained and relevant three years after completion, showcasing the sustainability and long-term value of the design
