Incorporating urban renewal aspects into the design of the Christine Wedding Art Center in Wenzhou, China involves not only transforming the existing building into a visually striking landmark but also revitalizing the surrounding neighborhood by infusing it with new energy and character. The design draws inspiration from the fluid forms of wedding dresses, translating their elegance, curves, and femininity into architectural and interior elements. The facade serves as a canvas for intricate patterns inspired by lace and embroidery found in wedding dresses.
