DESIGN NAME: 60M
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Bar
INSPIRATION: The original intention of the brand design was to locate the drinking culture of new wave of Chinese style. As the first Sixty Minutes bar in the series was located near the water curtain square in the shopping mall, we decided to take "water element" as the abstract concept of the theme, design with post-modern narrative, and interpret the theme with different materials.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: "All things come into being and go away." In the intangible sense, according to the analysis of the site and the layout of functions, the curvilinear circular bar is designed to make the space not restricted to the inherent functions and forms, with the purpose of establishing a new way of drinking and socializing, creating a new experience of tipple trip, and subverting the existing impression of the new mode of the third space.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: The design of bar of curved surface of water millstone now, have four kinds of different discretion form, break partition, mutual photograph is in harmony, build different dine to drink a state.
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The project started in June 2019 in Xiamen and finished in September 2019 in Xiamen.

RESEARCH ABSTRACT: The classic water drop chair was designed by Fritz Hansens in 1958 for the bar of the sas royal hotel. The use in the Sixty Minutes bar is also transformed into a high bar chair. Considering the comfort of dining, the design of the chair part is retained, the legs are extended and the angle of the legs is adjusted.
CHALLENGE: The bar's different heights and radians was the first construction difficulty of the whole project. The results are presented wonderfully after many processes including the repeated inference of the pre-design model, the segmentation of the site positioning; the steel structure covers the foundation; uses wood as a frame, and finally the mold plus rebar is poured five centimeters thick hydration grinding stone, and dozens of times polishing, waterproof reinforcement and other processes.
