The 1100 sqm headquarters for the Leping Foundation is conceived with wellness in mind. The office houses the Leping Foundation, a non-profit organization known for social innovation, and four of their investee companies that work in diverse fields: job training for migrant workers, agricultural research, preschool education and microfinance. These distinct companies are tied together by a central activity loop of suspended vegetation, mirrored by a running track underneath.
