About Dreams Chasing 生活與藝術展廳

「追夢」係一個位於中國汕頭市郊購物商場內嘅生活與藝術展廳。呢個480平方米嘅空間用嚟展示傢俬同床墊。場地係一個狹長嘅長方形區域,擁有標準嘅柱網,以及南北牆上均勻分佈嘅窗戶。設計將簡潔嘅幾何體塊嵌入結構之中,用以分隔同連接室內空間。一個帶有開孔嘅弧形形態,令各個空間互相滲透貫通。設計採用咗混凝土、白色乳膠漆、黑色乳膠漆同塑膠地板等物料。

Behind the Design

Unique Properties: By refining the volume of the form, the versatile geometry functions as division of space while independent from the space. The arc-shaped form adds fun to the space that is filled with tension, and the missing hole not only implies the beginning of each unknown space, but also allows the spaces to penetrate each other. A sloping wall seems to point to an unknown edge. Under the superposition of multiple forms and spaces, the viewers are guided into a world between dream and reality.
Dimensions & Packaging: Project area: 480 sqm
Category: Life and Art Showroom
Tags: Art Showroom, Simple, pure, perceive, AD ARCHITECTURE
Production Technology: Main materials: concrete, white latex paint, black latex paint, plastic flooring
Design Challenge: The project is located inside a mall in the suburbs. The space is mainly targeted for displaying furniture and mattresses. The designer defines it as life & art showroom. The site is a narrow rectangular space in east-west direction, with a standard column grid structure and evenly distributed windows on the north and south walls, resulting in a single spatial form. How to explore the diverse meanings of showroom space under the condition of limited space structure is the biggest challenge of the design.
Research: Space is virtual. In fact, in the virtual state, the narratives are allowed not to be presented in the order of events. To avoid a single linear space form, the design opens the non-load-bearing partition wall that combines the structure from the very beginning. Simple and pure geometrical form is interspersed in the framework of structure, and the original space is decomposed and reconstructed, creating spaces of different shapes and interconnections, thus the boundaries of space are blurred.
Inspiration: Everyone has a dream, which is an illusory yet real experience. Dreams provide more space for people to think about infinity, transcending the boundaries of real space, chasing, exploring and conquering in dreams while looking backward at the self and superego in personality. Perhaps it is also an encouragement for people to contemplate in real life. And that's why we call it Dreams-Chasing.
Project Duration: Design time: September, 2018
Completion time: December, 2018
Location: Shantou, Guangdong Province, China
Operation Flow: The space is mainly for displaying furniture and mattresses. Designer defines it as life & art showroom. The site is a narrow rectangular space in east-west direction, with a standard column grid structure and evenly distributed windows on the north and south walls, resulting in a single spatial form. Designer explores the diverse meanings of showroom space under the condition of limited space structure through the concept of "taking objects as reality, space as virtua, and dreams as the world".
