About Nestwood Reka Bentuk Dalaman Galeri

Nestwood ialah reka bentuk dalaman galeri dan pejabat yang dicipta sebagai ruang kongsi untuk industri kreatif. Ruang dalaman ini meliputi 600 meter persegi merentasi dua tingkat. Kaedah reka bentuk generatif membentuk rupa organik ruang ini. Fabrikasi digital robotik digunakan untuk membina geometri kompleks menggunakan keluli tahan karat gred marin, gipsum bertetulang gentian kaca, marmar dan aluminium berlubang. Kaunter penerimaan berbentuk organik menandakan pintu masuk dan dilatari kolam bio kecil di belakangnya. Atrium tengah dengan dinding beriliham semula jadi dan tangga berfungsi sebagai hab untuk perkongsian idea.

Unique Properties
The Nestwood Gallery is an oasis shared by multiple creative industries.
The design process uses experimental generative design to create an organic space. Each spatial detail is further fabricated with robots using the latest digital fabrication technology to replicate the complex geometry from the computer.
An organically shaped reception marks the entrance and greets the visitors, backed by a mini bio-pond: a mini-ecosystem is balanced by the atrium light, nitrogen, recycled water and minor species. The visitor is then welcomed by naturally inspired atrium walls, where a stair case leads the visitor to the upper level.
