Design Details

Unique Properties
This is a jewelry retail space that is not located in a mall, but in a single building in a creative garden. The sales group also shifted from the previous natural stream of people to the target consumer group. The particularity of geographical location and the shift in consumption patterns mean that the fixed patterns of previous design need to be broken.
Inspiration
Light is also one of the expression ways of space. The use of light and space blend, the external transparent glass curtain wall structure, forming an outward display space, but also form a transparent sense, to introduce more light. The blend of all white tones and light forms a pure and beautiful space feeling.
Research
In addition to doing a good job in space design, the most important core of jewelry space is the design of display cases and the application of lighting. The focus is on how to show the characteristics of different jewelry products through the design and lighting of the showcase, so that it exuded jewels from the inside out, which is also a design focus that has been studied.
Challenge
In the space, the art sculpture of "confession balloon" is used as a memory point. It is hoped that he can levitate lightly in the air to form a unique spatial temperament. How to suspend a 120kg art sculpture on top was a challenge for the design.
Realization and Technology
Some curved building structures are designed to serve as a space divider between the front and back, forming an interior building. The arc in the morphological vocabulary is combined with the inspiration of light to form the overall structure of the space. At the same time, this structure can block some natural light, which is projected through the arch hole to form the contrast of light and shadow in the space. At the same time, at the top of the top, also used some special-shaped arch design, simulate the sky light, create the sense of light source through the top surface.
Operation and Interaction
In the design, it is hoped that the space and people should be able to interact with each other. Therefore, some other devices are also integrated into the space to heighten the atmosphere of the space. It is just located at the entrance of the space. Whether consumers or passers-by, they can be guided to this point to form the interaction between people and the space. At the same time, they can also take photos and upload them to the Internet to spread, so as to achieve brand exposure and recognition.
