About Jiangcheng Business Innovation Center Interior Design
Jiangcheng Business Innovation Center is an office interior that also serves as an art gallery. The public areas combine the character of a gallery, the function of a business office and the relaxed mood of a coffee bookstore. The walls are finished with micro-cement art paint, which creates a simple background for the artworks on display. The main exhibition area is the 1000 square meter lobby on the first floor, while further pieces are placed within the working areas. The design gives an artistic and personal character to a daily workplace.

- Dimensions & Packaging
- The lobby area of the first floor is 1000 square meters, the second floor is 220 square meters, and the standard floor is 280 square meters

- Production Technology
- To create a sense of simplicity and purity, as well as to bring out the wall art exhibits, the walls are adorned with micro-cement art wall paint. The first floor exhibits include paintings from Ms. Huang Yi's River of Stars and Feathers of Nature series, as well as the sculpture artwork The Witty Rabbit Ricky.
- Design Challenge
- The design cautiously makes a trade-off of visual appeal and functional integration between the ground floor showroom and the office reception area. Leveraging a strategy of amplification and exaggeration, the design accents the ceremonial essence of the office entrance. It reaffirms the business nature of the space, and clarifies the boundaries between the two areas through a visual approach that embodies both the business atmosphere and spatial fluidity.
- Project Duration
- The project kicked off on August 2023 at Yuqiao in the Pudong New Area of Shanghai, concluded in December 2023, and was exhibited and put into operation in the same month.
- Operation Flow
- While primarily functioning as an office space, this space also serves as an art exhibition hall and gallery and is available to provide external services for arranging art exhibition projects. Notably, there is no definite boundary between the art exhibits and the office area within this space. Instead, the main exhibition space is located in the lobby on the first floor, while art pieces are also dispersed in other office areas, making a seamless integration of art and the workplace.
- Research
- In a space like this, the minimalistic aesthetics shifts the observer's attention towards the architectural structure itself and its inherent artistic exhibits. The incorporation of deconstructivist elements heightens the expressive potency of the space, introducing intricacy and depth to the structure, while also leaving a visual and emotional impact.
- Inspiration
- Designers instill unique perspectives and insights into the daily workplace and the modern way of giving artistic expression, which do not contradict each other from a space design standpoint. Traditional office spaces often lack personalization and innovative elements, whereas art spaces are highly expressive in these aspects. The best representation of the modern design trend, which accents versatility and humanization, is achieved by integrating both spaces.
