About Evd Office
EVD is an office and exhibition interior located in Shanghai, China. The space covers 300 square meters. The spatial form is shaped by classical languages, and classical architectural elements are used with modern approaches to add a sense of permanence. A U-shaped area is combined with one long side and five large windows, so natural light enters and spreads freely. Spherical forms are added to enrich the interior. The design begins by resolving limits caused by fire protection pipes and air conditioning ducts. Most walls use art paints made of shell powder and natural gums.

- Production Technology
- The design starts from solving with spatial limitations caused by pipes for fire protection and air conditioners in the original space. Such a design method can avoid repeated construction and resource wastes. 95% of walls use sustainable art paints. Those paints are composed of shell powder and natural gums, harmless to the environment and convenient for construction. Open and flexible spatial
- Design Challenge
- Due to site limitations, the position of the foyer determines the location of the entrance. In addition, the structural framework and the five orderly window openings define the placement of the wall. The challenges are how to allow light from the north naturally into the interior space and offer people a sense of participation and a playful perception.
- Research
- Located in Shanghai, China, EVD office is conceived based on two design threads that derive from site restrictions. One extends from the entrance to the interior, while the other is folded out vertically in the 5-meter-high space. Due to site limitations, the position of the foyer determines the location of the entrance. In addition, the structural framework and the five orderly window openings define the placement of the wall.
- Inspiration
- The designers created a U-shaped area that combines with one long side and the five large windows, allowing natural light to filter in and diffuse freely. The entrance protrudes towards the foyer, due to the consideration of fire control regulations. Its position and width for evacuation bring new opportunities for organizing spatial pattern and form. The overall spatial design starts here.

- Operation Flow
- The spatial form is shaped based on classical languages. It absorbs arched elements from Antonello da Messina's masterpiece "St. Jerome in His Study". In the painting, Messina depicted an "eternal" space that combines openness and privacy as well as fluidity and serenity by the use of arches, which can be seen on architectural and interior structures, landscape and furniture. Based on 3D shapes, he t
