The Design

About Zhangyan Country Living Festival 展览空间

"章堰乡村生活节"是为上海一场乡村活动打造的展览空间。整体布局由旧集装箱错落、堆叠、交织与旋转组合而成,塑造出多样的主题区域。其中一组集装箱围合出论坛区域,另一组则界定出集市空间。设计还运用了木材、稻草、芦苇等当地废弃资源。视觉识别系统采用孟菲斯风格,将当地的山、水、鱼、桥等元素加以抽象提炼。活动空间总面积达5000平方米。

Unique Properties: Urban-rural co-creation innovation experiment initiated by Lou Yongqi, Dean of the D&I, Tongji University, John Sakara, Academician of the RAC, and Aldo Cibic, one of Memphis school founders, to advance practices of sustainable living.

Taking brand culture "innovation" and "sustainable" as the core spirit for the design.
Dimensions & Packaging: The visual system design includes 5000 square meters of activity space.
Tags: Innovation，sustainable，Memphis，integrating design
Production Technology: The construction is built by using local abandoned containers and discarded native resources, e.g. wood, straw, and reeds.
Design Challenge: In order to fit the project proposition of "sustainable development", the space design is creatively combined with the original resources of the site. With the vitality given by design, its sustainability can be re stimulated; with the reuse of materials, a recyclable overall system can be established to reduce waste. The project market constructed with vitality system publicizes the concepts of "everything has an afterlife", "everything makes the best use of" and "each has its own place".
Research: Based on the project design background, the design approach decided to follow the following principles: starting from the top design, integrating the independent and compatible relationships among the main visual design, space design and guidance system, and strengthening the systematic output of the brand to the audience. The project hopes to create a blueprint for rural life in the future. The main visual design integrates the design style of Memphis School, and abstracts the "mountain, water, fish, bridge" and other abstract graphics with the regional characteristics of Zhangyan to form the main visual symbol of this event in the form of abstract combination. The Memphis school's design attribute of daring to imagine and break the Convention coincides with the attribute of this event.
The overall visual identity design of the project is based on the Memphis style, starting from the exhibition, speech, workshop and market to carry out spatial narrative, conveying the concepts of "rural", "sustainable", "future" and "innovation".
Inspiration: The Memphis school featuring creativity is used to integrate the elements of rural history and culture to form a brand image.
The brand graphics are three-dimensionally extended to form a systematic space design language.
To convey the sustainability sprint, the construction is built by using local abandoned containers and discarded native resources, e.g. wood, straw, and reeds.
We hope to lead the China rural revitalization with the idea of innovation and sustainability and design concept.
Project Duration: The project started in August 2019 in Shanghai and finished in November 2019.
Operation Flow: The original base is in an open suburban meadow, and in order to follow the purpose of environmental protection and sustainable exhibition, a number of old containers are used to form the activity area. By staggering, stacking, interlacing and stretching the containers, the simple rectangular bodies are combined into a variety of dynamic thematic exhibition space.
The left side of the site is distributed by two groups of containers on both sides, forming a more open enclosed form and providing an area for holding forums. On the right side, two groups of containers are rotated and disassembled into the site to create an activity space for holding a marketplace.
