Production Technology: The owner of the project has higher requirements for design, but their budget is limited. Therefore, in the process of realizing the design, we do our utmost to find more cost-effective main materials on the basis of environmental protection with design sense, so that the 300-square-meter project can only cost 600,000 yuan to achieve the present effect.
Design Challenge: The biggest challenge of this case is how to create enough artistic conception under the condition of limited funds. Therefore, we take lighting, music and aroma as the breakthrough point, and jointly create artistic conception from the three aspects of vision, hearing and smell.
Research: We hope to show the Chinese mountain scenery and ink painting, with modern means through the design to express their fashion temperament. The inspiration of this case comes from the mountain landscape ink painting. The hall uses nylon thread to make linear device to create a huge "ink painting". Line lights are used in the corridor to outline the mountain. The design of the whole space shows the "mountain landscape" in an abstract way.
Inspiration: This case mainly uses light, aroma and music as the carrier, to create a quiet space for relaxation from the three aspects of sight, smell and hearing. The mountain view is presented artistically and abstractly through a large linear installation. The use of soft nylon threads gives the mountain view a long and soft feeling, which complements the overall atmosphere of the space. Break the traditional concept of space for foot bath.
Project Duration: The project started in September 2019 in Chongqing ,China and finished in February 2020 in Chongqing ,China.
Operation Flow: This case mainly uses light, aroma and music as the carrier, to create a quiet space for relaxation from the three aspects of sight, smell and hearing. Moreover, with the abstract design, customers can enjoy a moment of relaxation and tranquility even in the noisy shopping mall.And we break the traditional concept of space for foot bath, through a multi-dimensional interpretation of the new space of " silence ", " release ", " intention ".
