YARD STUDIO

The project is at an intersection of two busy roads where is close to the Tianyi Square subway station at the CBD of Ningbo's old city. It provides convenient services to citizens, for examples, they can take short breaks, drink water, charge phones, borrow umbrellas, read books, access to medical kit, microwave oven, refrigerator and other facilities.

Given the location of the project in the downtown area surrounded by lights on commercial streets, we pourposely designed a low-key and “special box” to provide a “home-like” station for those who work along the busy streets.

The project is “box” modeled stations, which can be mass produced and distributed in any corners of a city. All components are prefabricated in the factory, which can be assembled on site in a very short time.

It is a “home” of the city, which is mass-produced with unique features. It is a warm light on the street, sharing the care from the city. It becomes the cultural identity of a city home, quietly waiting in the city center for the next passerby who needs shelter from the wind and rain.
