About Oil Street Art Space 길찾기 시스템

오일 스트리트 아트 스페이스(Oil Street Art Space)는 홍콩의 공공 예술·문화 공간을 위해 제작된 길찾기 시스템이다. 이곳은 역사적인 붉은 벽돌 건물과 비교적 새로 지어진 2층 건물, 그리고 전시와 지역 사회 활동이 이루어지는 야외 공간으로 구성되어 있다. 사인의 형태는 이 공간의 로고에서 도출되었으며 세 개의 면을 결합한 구조를 이룬다. 역사적 환경과 조화를 이루도록 검정색을 사용했고, 한 면에는 브랜드 컬러를 적용했다. 사인은 분체도장한 스테인리스 스틸에 음각 처리 후 도색한 글자로 제작되었으며, 건물 손상을 최소화하기 위해 벽돌 사이에 고정되었다.

Unique Properties: Oi!- Oil Street Art Space, is housed in the former clubhouse of the Royal Hong Kong Yacht Club. It opens to the public as community leisure and cultural space in two phases after revitalisation and restoration, including a red-bricked Grade II historic building with a tile roof and over 3000 sqm outdoor area with a two-storey building incorporating an exhibition and multipurpose venue respectively.
Dimensions & Packaging: Various dimensions according to the application on site
Tags: Wayfinding System, Signage, Environmental Design, Art and Cultural Space
Production Technology: Stainless Steel: powder coating and filling debossed letters in paint
Research: Research on signage installation protection on the historical building conducted while designing the signage. To minimise the damage to the building during installation and provide flexibility on future maintenance and replacement. At last, installing the signages in between the bricks for the historical building action had been taken.
Inspiration: The project is designing a wayfinding system for Oi! - Oil Street Art Space, an art oasis in urban city with original historical premises and new extension of contemporary building with outdoor spaces to host exhibition and community activities to the public. The form of the signage is a transformation of 'Oi!' logo and combined with three surface areas to illustrate the diversity and energetic vibe that 'Oi!' is going to bring to the community with the opening of a new phase.
Project Duration: May 2022, The Hong Kong SAR
Operation Flow: In consideration not to obscure the red bricks architectural features and to match with the historic environment as well as the contemporary exhibition and multipurpose venue, we proposed the black colour for the signage and touch up on the top left flipped area in 'Oi!' brand colour as well as the context. The set of approachable and manageable signage with consistent and helpful design to highlight the features and provide guidance to visitors to explore all parts of 'Oi!'.
