IBM在北京的新总部将坐落在中关村软件园。其所在区域呈椭圆形，在高度和红线区等方面受到严格的控制。此外，IBM要求我们不仅要遵守中国的建筑条例，还要遵循美国的建筑法规。

与其将这些条条框框理解为一种限制，我们更愿意将他们作为设计的起点。我们将这些规定与IBM的要求相结合，营造出一个高效、环保、健康、以及富有生产力的工作环境。而由于在这座建筑中激发了许多知识产权方面的智慧，我们希望它会是一座更具内涵的实体建筑。

首先，我们根据建筑的外部界限，创造了一个约为220米 x 50米的椭圆形“外壳”。其次，我们将这个外壳水平“切开”，两个大的椭圆架构在四个小椭圆上，上面两层为开敞的办公室，底层四个较小的椭圆为多功能厅，其中三个修建成花园，另一个将作为公司大堂。这些庭院满足了整个庞大建筑在采光和通风上的要求。在借鉴了北京传统四合院的建筑理念后，这座建筑实现了东西文化的交汇和融合。

开放的办公区位于顶部较大的椭圆内，而公共活动和集体化的功能则可以在四个较小的椭圆内实现。这个设计将各个空间融会贯通，并且将各庭院的内部办公区域连接起来。

The new headquarters of IBM in Beijing is located in Zhongguancun software park. The given plot had an ellipse outline and strict control of height and red line distance. Furthermore, IBM required us to not only follow Chinese building codes, but also American building codes as well.

Rather than considering these constraints as a limitation, we took them as a starting point of the design. We combined these with IBM requirements for an eきcient, green, healthy and productive oきce environment. As well with the wish to create a more introvert, solid building, due to the many intellectual properties that are developed in the building.

Firstly, we proposed a building envelope that fi nds the outer limits of the site, creating an ellipse volume that measures around 220 x 50 meter. Secondly, we divided this envelope horizontally,by proposing a large ellipse of two oきce fl oors that is positioned on four smaller ellipses on the ground fl oor. Positioning the top ellipse on the smaller ellipses leaves four interior courtyards in the building. Three will be used for gardens, one for the entrance lobby. These courtyards provide air and daylight within the large building volume. A reference to the traditional Beijing courtyard anchors the design in the context creating a link between old and new.

Open oきce fl oors are situated in the larger top ellipse, public and collective functions are situated in the smaller ellipses. This organization creates a very permeable composition of space,connecting to the interior oきce space of the courtyards.
