Unique Properties: This case is located in the central area of Shanghai. Adjacent to the commercial center of Jing'an Temple. At the same time, relying on the natural landscape of Zhongshan Park, it is a key planning and development area in Shanghai. We want to create a reception center with a vibrant and artistic atmosphere.
Dimensions & Packaging: 19375 sq.ft
Tags: Seeking Deer, visual connection, breaking boundaries, Deer of Life, Space Dialogue
Production Technology: We use a deer device to make the space interesting. The emergence of deer heralds beauty and hope, a spirited deer symbolizing beauty leaping and running, long antlers turning into branches of hope, and metal sense on flying butterfly feels like a blooming flower of life. Through the presentation of this artistic installation, it hopes to express the concepts of art, nature and ecology.
Design Challenge: The original space was very monotonous. We break the second floor with a large scale floor to ceiling window. And through the contrast between the fuzzy and the clear produced by the glass material, become a visual connection. A 6 meter long installation, Deer of Life, is set up in the second-floor window area. Guests can see this deer through the window on the first floor.
Research: This case is located in the bustling area of central Shanghai. Since the 1990s, together with Xujiahui, it has been the two major urban sub-centers, adjacent to the commercial center of Jing'an Temple. At the same time, relying on the natural landscape of Zhongshan Park, it is a key planning and development area in Shanghai. The project is divided into two floors, the first floor is the hall display area and the conversation area, and the second floor is the VIP reception and office area.
Inspiration: The conversation area on the first floor is a two-story empty space. We want to break the definition of the space on the second floor with a large scale floor to ceiling window. Because the glass is clear,achieves a visual connection, and forms a display center with a contemporary art museum experience.
Project Duration: The project started in October 2018 in Shanghai,China and finished in May 2019 in Shanghai,China, and was exhibited in Shanghai,China in May 2019.
Operation Flow: We wanted this space to be interesting. We break the second floor with a large-scale floor-to-ceiling window. And through the contrast between the fuzzy and the clear produced by the glass material, become a visual connection. A 6 meter long installation, Deer of Life, is set up in the second floor window area. Guests can see this deer through the window on the first floor.
