The Design

About Renmin Road 1979 El Centro De Ventas

Este proyecto gira principalmente en torno a los temas de Tiempo, Emoción y Ciudad, con el objetivo de retratar la fusión del patrimonio de la antigua Renmin Road con el nuevo desarrollo urbano. Al preservar y revitalizar edificios y espacios existentes, se emplea un enfoque de construcción hacia adentro. La memoria urbana, los símbolos culturales y las narrativas subyacentes se conservan con técnicas de diseño modernas, para dar lugar a una comunidad interconectada que combine armoniosamente lo antiguo y lo nuevo, para explorar la sinergia y la colaboración entre la reconstrucción y la preservación, alentando a las personas a pensar críticamente.

Unique Properties
This case is closely around the clues of Time, Emotion and City, interpreting the inheritance from the old Renmin Road and the new urban development.

Production Technology
The environmentally friendly stones poured by cement are mainly used in the space, embellished with mirror finished stainless steel sheets and gray cement sheets. By grasping the fission of old and new materials, textures and colors, the designer shows the mixture and collision between the sense of history and modernity concisely and powerfully. Columns are used to distinguish the dynamic and static parts in functional spaces. Likewise the partition and combination of geometric blocks are in continued use, echoed with soft decoration, to fully express and extend the design tactics.
Design Challenge
The overall space of the lobby area of the project is dominated by inclined planes, in which it's rather difficult for the onsite measurement and calculation, as well as the shaping handling. The walls are divided and collaged by different geometries through modern crafting techniques with aesthetic taste. Thousands of acrylic sheets are cut and spliced in a staggered manner to be used as the creation materials of the unique background wall for the bar area.
Research
The designer made site visits for many times to come up with field reports for further onsite measurement and calculation, as well as the shape landing and relevant constructions. By digging deeply into the history and humanities of Renmin Road, the designer accomplished an interdependent community of the old and the new, to well achieve both the contrast and fusion by bringing in new technologeis, new materials into the old and traditional objects, and the original spaces.
Inspiration
As a transportation hub and the artery of Kunming's important historical culture, human and business, Renmin Road was officially unveiled in the year 1979, which witnessed the business boom and industrial economic development of the old town of Kunming. With the urban renewal and upgrading, and the change from old culture to the new one, the old town sparkles with renewed vitality. Renmin Road, carrying the unique emotional symbol of the old town, is engraved with the development venation of its adapting to the times.
Project Duration
The project finished in May 2021 in Kunming City, Yunnan Province, China.
Operation Flow
In this project, the designer, by exploring the development course and the urban cultural memory of Renmin Road from year 1979 to 2021, hopes to help the client present a space that will evoke the emotion of the old town and relive its cultural history and memory. With the design concept of reviving an old town, emanating a blooming era, the designer uses extremely tense modern artistic expression techniques to create vivid experience of people walking and cruising through the buildings, so as to bring closer the distance among history, space and people in the field.
