DESIGN NAME: Joy City Kid's World
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Shopping Center
INSPIRATION: Inspired by Dandelion Hill,imagining the form of hills when adopting the rhythm of"contouring lines"in an undulating geography.In this space of 4200 square meters, the retailing stores and public entertainment areas are merged into the circular moving stream of visitors.
Like a palette being knocked over,the project brushes up to 200 colors in areas with different themes.Art installations and stores bump into and merge with each other,bringing livelihood and amusing expectations to the space.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: How to integrate the three-layer staggered structure of different heights on this floor is a challenge for the architect.Derived from the concept of Dandelion Hill,the whole space grows and flows naturally with the rhythm of the"contour lines".Splendid colors shift between entertainment zone and retailing stores,where the communication between families takes place and kids are growing up.Through creating an interactive space,the design enlightens and inspires the kids.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: The entire space is metaphorical for the process of life from budding,growing to maturity,encouraging the creative caprices and ideas to grow in kids,and leading them to explore the magic of nature.It is also an experimental innovation to insert recreational activities in retailing spaces.
