The project is a spatial performance exploring the dual facets of Ballet; where on the one hand there is an on-stage appearance of effortless grace, and on the other, an off-stage reality of discipline and of resolute strength. The dichotomy in qualities between the lightness of the performance and the gravitas of the everyday is mirrored through one's journey from the entry foyer to the studio proper. The former, a weightless ascension wrapped in gradients of light, and the latter, a delicate studio rendered alongside structural columns in their naked form.
Office for Good Architecture, OFGA, is a boutique design practice based in Hong Kong that explores the intersection between Architecture, Branding and space making. Founded in 2013, our partners bring together over 20 years of combined international design experience, and critical perspective to every project. Passionate about ideas and craft, we focus on the architecture of design, as much as the implementation of the design. This dual focus pushes us to adopt a culture of critical honesty towards the challenges that accompany original designs, and excellence in delivery. Perhaps more fittingly, the many challenges are a privilege we embrace.
