About Baoan - Guancheng Family Fit Bar Social and Leisure
The parallel "horizontal line" and "vertical line", no matter how they change, can not be intersecting. Only when they cross each other can they be intersecting, and the intersection forms a "lattice". And the lattice is a communication platform, which is the source of the whiskey bar's design concept. In terms of energy-saving and environmental protection, designers used LED energy-saving lamps throughout the entire bar. From the layout, in order to maintain the air quality inside the bar, they build windows from north to south, this can make sure the natural air come through.
Shigui Liu's Social and Leisure exemplifies the contemporary evolution of hospitality interior design, where spatial choreography and material selection converge to craft environments that transcend mere functionality to become theaters of social experience, the design demonstrates sophisticated understanding of how illumination shapes psychological perception of space, employing warm-spectrum backlighting that transforms utilitarian bottle storage into a luminous installation suggesting abundance and celebration, the architectural approach draws upon industrial heritage vocabularies while elevating them through refined material applications, the textured wall surfaces evoke artisanal craft traditions while brass and leather elements introduce notes of established luxury, the elongated proportional system creates a journey through the space, inviting gradual discovery while maintaining visual connection across the full extent, compositionally the work achieves dynamic equilibrium between the dense visual activity of the illuminated display wall and the more restrained treatment of opposing surfaces, allowing the eye moments of rest before returning to the chromatic richness of the featured collection, the designer appears to engage with phenomenological considerations of how bodies move through and inhabit space, the seating rhythm establishing social territories while the reflective floor plane creates perceptual expansion that counteracts any potential sense of compression in the linear layout, material selections demonstrate sensitivity to haptic experience alongside visual impact, the leather upholstery promising tactile warmth against cooler surrounding surfaces, this work invites contemplation of how designed environments mediate social rituals, how the staging of hospitality spaces influences the quality of human gathering, and how material and light combine to create atmospheres conducive to connection and conviviality.
Press Kit
- Unique Properties
- The horizontal and vertical lines are intertwined to form a lattice, the lattice divides the space, and the space defines the human activity.
In our bar, we mainly use black and gold for our decorations.
Black means darkness. It makes people feel very private and comfortable. People can do whatever they want in here.
In terms of energy saving and environmental protection, we used LED energy-saving lamps throughout entire bar. From the layout, in order to maintain the air quality inside the bar, we build windows from north to south, this can make sure the natural air come through. - Dimensions & Packaging
- The scale of the project: 300 m²
- Tags
- Bar space, cultural space, indoor space, commercial space, entertainment club, cultural space, social space
- Production Technology
- The project design process includes market positioning and investment analysis, concept presentation, spatial layout, concept deepening, project construction, and post-complete user information collection.
- Design Challenge
- The space is long and has a large depth, and it is necessary to consider the air mobility of the indoor space. Space uses a lot of lines, in order to make the space style uniform, some products need to be customized. The total project cost is relatively high.
- Project Duration
- Project start and end time: May 2017 - August 2017
Project address: Guancheng Family, Baoan District, Shenzhen City - Operation Flow
- The horizontal and vertical lines are intertwined to form a lattice. The lattice divides the space, and the space defines the human activity. Such a simple logical relationship constitutes a complex interpersonal space field.
Our bar used this concept , we created a space for young adults. When young people come to our bar, they may not know each other before, throughout the conversations and the dance parties, they will make some new friends or hang out with their best friends in here. Because we provide this space that can help them build relationship and extend their friendship. - Research
- Research type: bar space design.
Research goal: Everything returns to the essence of the whisky bar atmosphere and the appeal of the core culture; not the over-decorated "retro" whiskey bar we usually see.
Research methods:Divide the space with lines, create an atmosphere through color, and embody texture through materials.
Outcome feedback: The project has already started operations and has become a must-go place for Shenzhen Net. - Inspiration
- The parallel "horizontal line" and "vertical line", no matter how they change, can not be intersecting. Only when they cross each other can they be intersecting, and the intersection forms a "lattice". And the lattice is a communication platform, which is the source of our whisky bar's design concept.
Designed to return to the essence of the whisky bar atmosphere, as well as the cultural appeal of the core, rather than the “retro” whiskey bar on the market.
