About Changsha Fundoland Entertainment Complex

Changsha Fundoland is an entertainment complex located in Changsha, China. The interior covers over 4,500 square meters and holds more than ten entertainment zones, including restaurants, a pub, a live music venue, a bowling alley and karaoke rooms. A 60 meter corridor shaped like a tunnel forms the main route and avoids the fixed columns of the building. Entertainment areas are placed on both sides of the corridor to improve access and encourage exploration. Train and carriage motifs guide visitors through the space and support an immersive narrative.

Production Technology
In the space of over 4,500sqm, the designer integrates more than ten diverse and complex entertainment areas and functional zones to present a series of complete immersive experiences. Behind the thematic theater-style and realistic construction is a complex design planning system that integrates function and aesthetics, presenting a series of complete immersive experience.
Design Challenge
The irregular spatial boundary and non-removable columns of the space became a barrier for the designer to build this large entertainment complex. To avoid the interference of columns, the designer divided a 60m long corridor space which avoided the interference of the columns and created a main traffic artery that also functions as a restaurant and pub. Other entertainment areas are planned on both sides of the tunnel, enhance the accessibility and increase its exploratory aspect.
Research
The project is located in one of the most prosperous district in Changsha, with a premium target group that follows quality lifestyle and fashion trend. Therefore, the project is precisely anchored in the popular areas of contemporary youth consumption, integrating diversified entertainment businesses such as restaurants and pubs, livehouse, bowling alley, ktv, etc, to build a secret urban stronghold for the trendy crowd.
Inspiration
In order to create an offline social entertainment metaverse where visitors could experience its rich layers and deep exploratory elements, the designer incorporated train like installations as a symbol to complete the narrative of leading visitors to escape from the boredom of everyday life. Trains, subways, carriages, tunnels, the symbolic elements of the theme are transformed into echoes of the dream world, allowing you to fall into a deeper level of adventure and unreality.
Project Duration
The project is located at L3 BBG Star World, No.398 Xiangfu East Road, Yuhua District, Changsha. It was built and opened to the public in Sep 2022.
Operation Flow
Through the tunnel like corridor, the consumer circulation follows the change of the space pattern and extends forward in a streamlined manner with diversified entertainment theme areas locating on both side of the corridor, which enables the consumers feel as if consciousness dives on a train into a dreamlike ecstasy, encountering an endless succession of visual spectacles and floating between reality and illusion.
