Loop corridor concludes all ways to go in whole space, guiding people movements easily.

Inspiration

The institute enrolls art candidates aged in sixteen to eighteen, which are transition ages from adolescence to youth, so we have to consider both interesting factors and certain mature factors in our design. We choose black, gray and white as base, main colors of whole space, this matches with hue relationships in pencil sketching. We take Origami as main factor in form designs such as sculptures, artworks, many polygon origami factors have been used into decorations
