About Oil Street Art Space Mfumo wa Uelekezaji

Oil Street Art Space ni mfumo wa uelekezaji ulioundwa kwa ajili ya kituo cha sanaa na utamaduni cha umma huko Hong Kong. Eneo hilo linajumuisha jengo la kihistoria la matofali mekundu na jengo jipya la ghorofa mbili lenye maeneo ya nje kwa ajili ya maonyesho na shughuli za kijamii. Umbo la alama hizo limetokana na nembo ya kituo hicho na linachanganya maeneo matatu ya uso. Rangi nyeusi imetumika ili kuendana na mazingira ya kihistoria, huku eneo moja likiwa na rangi ya chapa hiyo. Alama hizo zimetengenezwa kwa chuma cha pua kilichopakwa unga (powder coating) na herufi zilizochorwa kwa mbinu ya kuzama (debossed) zilizopakwa rangi, na zimewekwa kati ya matofali ili kupunguza uharibifu kwenye jengo hilo.

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!'.
