Project Description
The original building is Tianjin Shipyard with history of one hundred years.We consider designing this project with the concept of navigator which means a large ship is sailing on the sea.
In the original architecture, mock-up and sales office are in two separate buildings. The designer connects the two separate buildings together through a corridor and make them a complete one. We outline the profile of the ship with flow lines and attach the LED light strip based on the profile to present a large ship of modern times with future sense of science and technology.
With the exterior waterscape, the artistic building looks like a large ship sailing on the sea from afar. LED light strips on the ship refract by the water and form perfect mirror image which adds dreamlike beauty to the space. Combination of architecture and landscape forms the waterscape of modern large ship of future science and technology.
In the interior space,the cloud profile on the ceiling makes people feel that they are under clear sky. Transparent glass brings the sunshine in which echoes with the large ship sailing in the sea, offering special experience and visual impact in both interior and exterior space.
