About GAFA Changgang Admin Bldg Design 辦公室室內設計

廣美昌崗行政樓設計係昌崗校區行政大樓嘅室內翻新工程。項目涵蓋一座四層建築約3600平方米嘅室內空間。設計保留咗原有建築嘅標誌性拱門,並加入鏡面不鏽鋼天花、瓷白色牆身、合金鋼元素同冷色調燈光。透過反射同視覺延伸,解決咗天花高度有限同自然採光不足嘅問題。歷史符號與現代物料喺此融為一體。

Unique Properties: 1.The design draws inspiration from inheriting and reinterpreting the historical symbols of the GAFA Changgang Campus Administration Building. By preserving the iconic arch, introducing mirrored ceilings and porcelain-white walls, it addresses spatial constraints and poor lighting, creating an elegant, transparent, and pristine atmosphere. The fusion of tradition and innovation endows the public space with renewed value.
Dimensions & Packaging: Interior area: approximately 3600 square meter
Building area: 4 floors, 4000 square meter

Production Technology: The key challenge of this project was enhancing indoor lighting and ceiling height while preserving the original structure. To address this, we employed mirror-finished stainless steel materials. The installation of the mirrored ceiling and ensuring its flatness presented the most difficult aspects of the project. After installing the ceiling joists, the factory safely transported the mirrored ceiling panels to the site. Welding components connecting to the joists were then attached to the back of the stainless steel panels. Using a hoist system, the panels were lifted into place and installed.
Design Challenge: The creative and research challenge of this project lies in balancing the continuation of historical architectural symbols with the infusion of modern design language within limited spatial and contextual constraints. It requires preserving iconic elements such as arches while employing innovations in mirrors, light, and materials to address cramped space and insufficient lighting, ultimately achieving harmony between tradition and modernity.
Research: By adopting design approaches such as mirrored ceilings, porcelain-coated finishes, and alloy steel structures, the project addresses issues of insufficient lighting and low ceiling height. Through inheriting the historical style while embedding modern symbols, it creates an elegant, transparent, and pristine spatial atmosphere, reinforcing the unity of functionality and aesthetic value.
Inspiration: The design draws inspiration from inheriting and reinterpreting the historical symbols of the GAFA Changgang Campus Administration Building. By preserving the iconic arch, introducing mirrored ceilings and porcelain-white walls, it addresses spatial constraints and poor lighting, creating an elegant, transparent, and pristine atmosphere. The fusion of tradition and innovation endows the public space with renewed value.
Project Duration: From July 2023 to November 2023, completed.
Operation Flow: Through mirrored reflection and spatial extension, combined with arch symbols, porcelain-coated finishes, alloy steel structures, and cool lighting, the design achieves symbolic implantation, visual guidance, and spatial optimization in environmental renovation.
