About LiNing 8th Gen Primærfunktion: Flagskibsbutik

LiNing 8th Gen er en flagskibsbutik for et sportsmærke, der dækker 2049 kvadratmeter. Designet trækker på løbebaner og basketballbaner. Indgangen viser løbeprodukter under farveskiftende lysbånd, der lyser i takt. En LED-skærm i midten minder om skærmene over basketballbaner og indrammer basketballudstillingen. Indvendige overflader anvender enkel cement, mens hylderne er lavet af metal og rustfrit stål med en overfladefinish i kulfiberstruktur. Hylderne kan skilles ad og genbruges for at reducere spild. Varerne er grupperet i tydelige temaområder.

Design Challenge
The challenge for this project was to design a flagship store that was not cliched and still felt relatable.
Research
The store image of the eighth generation is the result of continuous development and perfection following the development of the times. With the successive presentation of various types of stores with different conditions, the store image of the eighth generation has been enhanced and perfected in terms of decoration, gadgets, lighting and experience systems, forming a set of dynamic and continuous store image standards.
Inspiration
In the image design of the eighth generation flagship store of LiNing, the designers take running tracks and basketball gyms as the sources of inspiration, organically integrate professional products for running exercise and basketballs and all sorts of fashion products including sports fashion and China LiNing in the same store, highlighting professional sports attributes and the fashion life atmosphere of the brand.
Project Duration
The project started in December 2019 in Liuzhou and finished in May 2020 in Liuzhou.
Operation Flow
The store entrance is an area displaying running exercise commodities. The design is inspired by the running tracks. The RGB color changing light belt at the top are lined regularly. The lights shine in rhythm, pairing with the running models below, for a dynamic display to attract the sight of people hurrying to and fro. The LED screen in the middle of the store is inspired by the LED screen at the top of basketball gym, which along with the focus display of the basketball models below, formulates the atmosphere characteristics of the basketball theme commodity exhibition in the middle.
