the working space
“I found a coworking space to work in where I have had the chance to find like-minded people and grow the human connections I was missing from working at home.”
Space exists through creating it.
Sanren has fond of old antiques for quite a time. Since the establishment, our team has been collecting old pieces and items into our home.
Sanren’s working space is a playground of interaction between human and cats.
Setting foot into Sanren, all the precious antiques give out elegant and timeless scent. You will observe marks and scratches of memories on the furnitures left by time. Woods, handcrafts, paintings inside Sanren are the footprints of our team.
Sanren are made up by 5 photographers, 1 cinematographer and 1 makeup artists. In our team, we believe every person is different. Thus, Sanren preserved each crafters’ own uniqueness and personalities.
All these invisible zones create mental boundaries within our space. By stitching and splitting into different space, it gives birth to an interesting relationship between human and furnitures, mood and space.
Handcrafts and wood furnitures are the main elements in this space.
Space is a rhythm of a crafter’s heartbeat. In our space, our team compartmentalise our own workplace and mould our paradise in it. Each workspaces are distinct from each other, yet, all of our workplaces are resonating with a resemblant echo.
Self-drawn paintings which resemble a crafter’s mind and mood, can be seen along the walls.
Other than large antiques, light also plays a vital role in radiate mood in space. Different angles and tones emit from lamps flourish varies composition of senses, contrasting especially during day and night time.
Old lamps are given a new life when they were collected from antique store and second-hand shops.
Cats are always one of the main resemblances in Sanren. They mediate the team’s hectic working pace and inject droplets of softness into the space.

All spaces are divided by using large furniture and racks, giving a personal space for each member.
Rayson, who has an affection towards antiques, collected all these miniature items during his overseas trip and visitation to foreign antique stores.
