K11 Art Mall

A huge success since opening, K11 Wuhan in China proves that brick-and-mortar retail can thrive with the right amenity-driven design, an inherent sense of fun, and an eye on the future. Verticality was one of the driving ideas behind the retail planning, encouraging visitors to go upward and explore. Designers achieved this by strategically placing vertical landmarks as well as floor-specific landmarks throughout the mall and also connecting to the adjacent mall via an external bridge.

Woodland

The original building had limited space and heavily relied on artificial lights, which was against common expectations of kindergartens. The design has kept the entire structure and created an atrium. Taking advantage of the original structure, the atrium transforms the liner into a woodland. Columns and beams immediately become trees and bridges. Continuous stairs and slides spiral up around the columns, connecting and activating spaces.

Obori Soma Ware Matsunaga Kiln

Matsunaga Kiln was located in Fukushima, Japan, producing the designated traditional crafts with more than 300 years of history. One proprietary feature of Obori Soma Ware is its double-layered structure, which enables this daily-use ceramics to hold boiling water and prevents it from cooling down. Designers wanted to incorporate and express this feature in our architecture. Designers believe that the different scales of architecture and ceramics, in the same composition, influence each other.

Carefree

The lobby is divided into three areas, that is, refreshment area, wine area and private room. According to the business hours and regional characteristics, the three areas have their own beautiful scenery. The wall decoration of the refreshment area is with Chinese carved fence, supplemented by dim light to highlight the deep and secluded feeling. The private room did not use splendid decorations, but designed the space into a container for people and food to set off the delicate taste of food by broadening the image extension.
