Behind the Design

Press Kit

Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.

Unique Properties: The Manchurian flower-window screen is made of metal and acrylic by the designer rather than the heavy, stiff wood and glass. The designer fully inherits and carries forward the creative qualities of "the union of Chinese and Western" of the Lingnan School of painting while also eliminating the heaviness of conventional materials, smoothing the reaction and alteration of light and shadow in this space.
Dimensions & Packaging: The project covers a total of 1450 square meters.
Tags: Interior, Commercial, Modern, Oriental Elements, Natural, Elegant, Sales Center
Production Technology: The main materials in this project are artistic paint, environment-friendly coiled material with texture, wood veneer, artificial stone, stainless steel, artistic glass, brick, etc.
Design Challenge: The IP design "Zhuzai" is created with the concept of "taking water and thinking of source" in order to add cultural interest. The designer has created a straightforward, approachable graphic that, when combined with traditional tea art actions, concretizes Guangdong tea culture in a fresh, modern way.
Research: The Lingnan architectural culture has its own style, establishing the characteristics of "inside sealing and exterior opening," due to its regional particularity of the mountainous coastal location. The negotiation area adheres to an ancient architectural notion such that autonomous self-consistency and external tolerance are simultaneous.
Inspiration: The continuous Pearl River system flows through Lingnan, cutting through countless mountains and refreshing the region's lotus beauty, thus enhancing local and cultural memories of the area. Based on traditional Lingnan architecture, humanities, together with art, and other qualities, the designer in this design utilizes modern techniques to channel "hometown water" into the architectural area.
Project Duration: The project started in October 2021 in Guangzhou and finished in July 2022 in Guangzhou.
Operation Flow: The spatial center of gravity of the recreation space is formed by the LED screen, stairs, water bar, and tea area. Each component is joined together by distinctive Guangdong cultural features, which not only replicate the traditional aesthetic form of the Guangdong school but also carry over the memory temperature of the old Guangdong.
