TOMORROW WORLD

Tomorrow world design center is a temporary building left over from the Shanghai World expo, Over the years, there have been several different owners, they have undergone various modifications to the interior of the building, So the final structure of the internal structure is relatively complex. Party A wants to do a public welfare project which is free of charge to designers and free for the display of furniture.

The structural transformation has already begun before we accepted the design task, after arrived in building site we are shocked by the internal spherical grille and intricate exposed steel structure. The original structural framework has become very confusing after several times of structural transformation, but surprisingly this unintentional confusion naturally reveals the strength and beauty moment which can instantly touch people. Therefore, it is the direction of the overall design and technical requirements to retain and to expose the original steel structure of spherical grid, and to extend the traces of original steel structure. In order to show the feeling of this nudity messy, we deliberately did not avoid the the traces of hard hit between the wall and the original structure in the design, but to make them like a sculpture on the wall which form a three-dimensional picture.

In addition, the original building is a single layer membrane structure, it makes a huge loss of entire indoor energy. In order to save energy, and to retain the momentum of the spherical grid of the and the beauty of the bare structure in the meanwhile, we put a layer of transparent film indoor after consulted with the material company. Natural light shines through the membrane structure throughout the room. So in the main colors, we choose the combination of a relatively light gray and the wood color, So that the first feeling is very easy, but also it is very consistent with the variability of the space. For example, we often change the layout in the
