This project was entrusted by two friends to design an exhibition space with office functions. It is equivalent to the model of the 'front shop and back factory' - the layout of the 580 m² space, planning a public exhibition hall as large as possible, while at the north side of the exhibition hall, planning the design department, meeting, reception, tea room, storage, and other functional spaces.
建筑夜间人视，夜间透视
We believe space should be quiet and inner, without revealing unnecessary expressions. We see the space as a container, giving the word to people and objects, making them emotionally interactive to achieve a homogeneous balance. In this way, through conscious and precise 'omission', we reveal the core of spatial construction and express the creators' selves by exploring the materials and construction techniques to the extreme.

The exhibition space is minimalist and purely clear, as a simple and sharp 'white box'. Through 'concessions' in design, inviting people and objects to become subjects in the space.
After removing the cumbersome aluminum curtain wall on the south side of the original building, the large floor-to-ceiling glass area brings a sense of permeability to the exhibition area by introducing sufficient natural light. At the same time, the externally customized flower beds act as soft partitions, forming a gentle transition between the public space and the city, creating a sense of continuity and community in the public space. The office area will be accessed from the exhibition hall through a hidden entrance.
交通核心筒，“核心筒”
The office space is practical and compact, with various functional areas surrounding an "L"-shaped atrium, naturally extending upwards into a courtyard. Spaces intertwine and penetrate each other, mutually influencing, and resembling an internal architectural facade
