The renovation of the building's exterior was based on the premise of respecting the historical appearance of the Forbidden City, while also enhancing the convenience of building access. The interior space features a unique "Street + Mall" layout, with the ground floor designed to incorporate street elements that reflect Shenyang's old industrial culture, creating a commercial atmosphere that blends with this industrial heritage. The interior design draws inspiration from traditional Shenyang factories in 1980s-1990s, presented through modern design elements. It combines cultural art, leisure and entertainment, and a city landmark into retail experience.In terms of space planning and atmosphere creation, the design showcases "industrial history" while adding liveliness through open shops and everyday life scenes. The design is challenging to meet updated fire codes while maximizing the display of brand identity and commercial ambiance. To further enhance the interactivity of the environment, performances featuring Northeast China’s traditional "Yangge" dance and "Er Ren Zhuan" (a local form of duet performance) can be scheduled during holidays. Additionally, staff at the "Worker’s Canteen" and security personnel can be dressed in attire reminiscent of the 1990s. Street vendors selling traditional treats like "sugar-coated haws" and "ice cream" can also wander through the area, calling out their wares.These interactive elements would create immersive experience, deeply resonating with visitors and enhancing the shopping center’s cultural and experiential appeal.
