About Wuhan UI Interior de Centre de Vendes

Wuhan UI és un interior de centre de vendes inspirat en la cultura de l'aigua de Wuhan. El so i l'espai formen el marc del concepte de disseny. Es va compondre música original per a l'interior, i les pistes sonores es barregen de manera invisible per les sales, de manera que els visitants es mouen com si estiguessin dins d'un camp sonor. Una escala de cargol condueix cap a la font del so a la segona planta, de manera que el recorregut es guia tant per l'oïda com per la vista. Les instal·lacions artístiques combinen escales, un mirall de bronze i una pedra penjant. Els materials inclouen laca artística, maó decoratiu i pedra artificial amb vetes de fusta.

Behind the Design

Unique Properties: "When a building stays, the river doesn't stop flowing." In Wuhan, Qingchuan Pavilion and Yellow Crane Tower stand beside the river, and the river flows constantly all day and night. In UI Center, an art installation that combines a stable building with unstable mirror images through which the suspension bridge passes. The instability of the suspension bridge and the swinging of the perforating copper give people a kind of dreamlike feeling.
Dimensions & Packaging: "Sound and space constitute the framework of the design concept. Sound is integrated into the context of contemporary art and sound tracks are interwoven and mixed invisibly in the space, so that visitors walk as if in a sound field, interacting with the art installations in the space and motivating the emotions of the whole space.
Tags: Divinity, field domain, fusion, leisure, emotion, balance
Production Technology: Artistic lacquer, decorative brick, colour film, artificial stone with wood grains, pan DOMO floor.
Design Challenge: The water on the first floor statically expresses a kind of extreme quiet, while that on the second floor emphasizes the sense of mobility of the space.
The second floor is connected with the first floor. Those regular windows and walls separate the space into a series of continuous pictures, which depict the warm, delicate and romantic sceneries of spring, river, flower, moon and night in the traditional Chinese style.
Research: In the corridor, the light and the sky colour mix mutually, and the sound of water droplets is high sometimes and low sometimes. The sound source is located in the roof of the second floor just above the spiral staircase. Therefore, the guidance of the tour route is beyond ordinary visual guidance, but a process of "seeking for a sound source".
Inspiration: "I want that the whole space is filled with a pleasant sound. The space and sound have a close relationship but are separate each other."
- Yu Zhao
Like a floating city, Wuhan floats on the surface of rivers and lakes. The project design was inspired by the unique water culture of Wuhan. Based on "water", the designer invited his friend Ouge, a musician, to create a piece of unique music for this space, and integrated the sound art into space expression here.
Project Duration: The project started in Oct. 2019 in Wuhan and finished in Nov. 2020 in Wuhan.
Operation Flow: Listening to the sound whiling going upstairs from the corridor, visitors can also "view" the stairs in the box, the bronze mirror on the floor, and the hanging stone which constitute a complete art installation with a special art environment. The light darkens here, and the reflection in the mirror looks like the surface of a pool of water, attracting people to stop and feel their blurred environment around. The sound of water droplets does not correspond to the real dropping water.
