Yintai Metropolitan Art Gallery

The designers leveraged their indoor architecture expertise to create the interior space and visitor experience. The white curved surfaces continuously wind and twist upward. Connections or dislocations between different layers serve as vivid imitations of water ripples and mountain peaks.

At the sand table area, the designers displayed the brilliantly imaginative artworks in a clever way. Through interactions between people and objects, feelings are channeled outwards, and people’s anticipations and expectations for both daily life and the future are expressed. A dynamic device designed by famous Japanese artist Susumu Shingu entitled “A Spaceship” hangs from the ceiling, creating a poetic feeling of dialogue between humanity and nature.

The freedom and ease which the curves bestow upon the design represent the vitality and glow of the younger generation. The winding light bands are perfectly integrated into the space, radiating soft light, and creating an exquisite and serene atmosphere.

The toy bear “Bear-Brick”, standing in the room as an avatar of pop culture, shows the designers’ reflections on the present and future. Through artworks, the designers want to create a surreal scene, so that visitors can break away from the usual experience of being preached to in a gallery, and realize their own spiritual freedom.

The white spiral staircase winds along with smooth and subtle curves, bringing a gentle tension that not only expands the dimensions of the space, but also brings about multiple changes in the perspectives of visitors, and granting more imagination to the unknown space.The “ripples”-like spiral around the “vortex core” and its various structural layers make a strong visual impact on the viewers.Soft colors make the space both elegant and cozy. The art, independent of life, is also infinitely close to life.
