The case is a chain brand project. The client hopes to do diverse attempt that not only breaks the inherent impression of the chain brand but also combined with the theme of "green humanities" in the mall which make it more independent and distinct personality. We dismantle the whole space in order to letting it start from the direction of the light and spread outward that create more space extension and infinite mirror refraction. Black will gather the scattered light which makes the opposition of a variety of materials and colors more harmonious in visual effect and stronger picture texture.
The light curtain opens the first layer of space in different forms on the carrier of different materials, with an inward contraction shape, opening the entrance of this case. The green plants become an extension of light and shadow. When peering in through the frame and the opening and closing of the glass door, the layers of space are displayed. The inclined mirror reveals the "thing" inside at the opening and the stainless steel is interspersed in the space which linking the scattered time. Guide the way out with light but lose ourselves in the road with mirror. Arc, fault, interlaced, space and time throughout the entire project by broken and reorganized rhythm and design.
The enclosed design enlarges the central area and the dimensional tension is pulled to the extreme in the limited space. The placement of architectural language truncates the divine circle that integrates it into the balance of order and completing the sense of extension with an upward gesture. The texture of super metal and the symmetrical posture are the core of the entire space. The leather surface escaping from the edge of the block infiltrates each other with the reflected light which making the inside and outside of the space no longer independent and individual.
The mirror is also a link of interaction in the space, reaching the same frequency with people and scenes.
