Kris Lin · CLIENT: China Overseas Property
Seeking Deer is a sales office located in the central area of Shanghai. The interior is divided into two floors. The first floor holds the hall display area and the conversation area, while the second floor holds the reception and office area. A large-scale floor-to-ceiling window opens the second floor toward the double-height conversation area below. The clear glass creates a visual connection between the two levels. A six meter long installation named Deer of Life is set in the second-floor window area, and guests can see the deer from the first floor.

- We use a deer device to make the space interesting. The emergence of deer heralds beauty and hope, a spirited deer symbolizing beauty leaping and running, long antlers turning into branches of hope, and metal sense on flying butterfly feels like a blooming flower of life. Through the presentation of this artistic installation, it hopes to express the concepts of art, nature and ecology.

- Research
- This case is located in the bustling area of central Shanghai. Since the 1990s, together with Xujiahui, it has been the two major urban sub-centers, adjacent to the commercial center of Jing'an Temple. At the same time, relying on the natural landscape of Zhongshan Park, it is a key planning and development area in Shanghai. The project is divided into two floors, the first floor is the hall display area and the conversation area, and the second floor is the VIP reception and office area.
- Inspiration
- The conversation area on the first floor is a two-story empty space. We want to break the definition of the space on the second floor with a large scale floor to ceiling window. Because the glass is clear,achieves a visual connection, and forms a display center with a contemporary art museum experience.
