The continuous exploration of time and space promotes the continuous progress of human civilization. When the focus is on modern urban civilization, space changes from the concrete representation of the vast and infinite universe to the urban space where urbanites work and live.

How to awaken the power of space?" The recently published book "Awakening Space Productivity" may be able to give the answer.

Combining on-site visits to DoBe Group's parks and analyzing the underlying logic of creative space design, "Awakening Space Productivity" explains the impact of space on creativity. Through carefully designed spaces, creative workers can create a dynamic and innovative environment. and creative office environment, allowing creativity to grow freely.

The method concepts in the book have been verified by the DoBe project. DoBe's product logic mainly includes three aspects: timeline, application scenarios, and user pain points. The methodology includes three levels: space design, business services, and ecosystem. Dong Huanze, editor-in-chief of Zhanlu Culture, the planning and publishing company, said that good space design is obviously helpful in improving "flow".

The venue of this press conference - DoBe Shanghai Bookstore WE, is one of the cases where DoBe Group's space creativity serves industrial development.

The practice of DoBe Shanghai Bookstore WE and other DoBe parks provides experience for the iteration of urban landscape and high-quality development of urban renewal. As written in the book "Awakening Space Productivity", creative parks are evolving from mere commercial projects to urban renewal and community reconstruction.

The roundtable exchange session centered on "How space design can become a catalyst for innovation". Participants believed that space design should ultimately serve people, and a space that can catalyze creativity is a space with harmonious relationships between people and architecture, and between people. From creative parks to creative communities to creative districts, people work and live in them, understand each other better, generate more ideas, solve more problems, share and create together, and find a better development path together.
