About Yhdq Design Headquarters
Yhdq Design is a headquarters interior of 1500 square meters located in Chongqing, China. The space combines a working office with a gallery. A seamless mirror-polished stainless steel ceiling reflects the surrounding cityscape and brings the urban view inside. Curved partitions rotate on concealed tracks, so areas can be reconfigured quickly and quietly. A programmable lighting system adjusts the atmosphere for different uses. Warm travertine and American walnut are paired with micro-cement and wire mesh glass. Kinetic artworks are treated as part of the architecture.

Press Kit
- Unique Properties
- This space defies categorization as a mere office. It is a permanent yet mutable gallery where a seamless mirrored ceiling performs its visual act: marrying the interior with Chongqing's urban panorama. Here, functional architecture, like rotating walls, and central kinetic artworks are inseparable, collectively forming a living ecosystem dedicated to the ritual of creation.

- Production Technology
- Spatial Illusion: A custom-engineered, seamless mirror-polished stainless steel ceiling system creates a perfect, distortion-free reflection of the cityscape.
Light Choreography: A programmable DMX lighting system sculpts space and orchestrates mood shifts for different scenarios.
Adaptive Architecture: Heavy-duty concealed tracks and 360-degree rotating curved partitions enable silent, rapid spatial reconfiguration.
Hybrid Art Fabrication: Key artworks were realized in-house, fusing traditional handcraftsmanship (metal forging, bamboo weaving) with precision digital fabrication (CNC machining).
Material Palette: A tactile dialogue between warm, natural materials (Travertine, American walnut) and industrial, textured surfaces (micro-cement, wire mesh glass). - Design Challenge
- Challenge 1: Merging an avant-garde "art scene" concept with daily operational needs. Solution: Strategic zoning and multifunctional, transformable elements that hide practicality within artful forms.
Challenge 2: Executing highly complex, cross-disciplinary fabrication (architecture, fine art, digital tech). Solution: Leveraging the brand's unique in-house vertical integration of design, art studio, and fabrication workshop for flawless execution.
Challenge 3: Translating the specific spirit of Chongqing into a universally compelling design. Solution: Abstracting the city's essence into atmospheric qualities - light, reflection, texture - rather than using literal cultural symbols. - Research
- This project serves as applied research into using art as the central operational framework for a corporate environment. It proves that a deeply artistic, narrative-based space can powerfully strengthen brand identity, stimulate higher creativity, and foster a stronger sense of community. It establishes a new paradigm where the workplace itself is a curated, inspirational asset.
- Inspiration
- The design is triply inspired. First, by Brand Ontology: physically manifesting YHDQ Design's unique evolution from art gallery to holistic design maker in the space. Second, by Urban Context: abstracting Chongqing's cyberpunk energy, mountainous layers, and misty river light into spatial drama and material texture. Third, by the Future of Work: creating a magnetic destination that attracts talent through inspirational culture and emotional resonance, transcending transactional efficiency.
- Project Duration
- The project is located in Chongqing, China, and was completed and officially put into operation in October 2024.
- Operation Flow
- Interaction occurs on two levels. Physically: Users actively engage by operating the symbolic rotating door, rearranging modular furniture, and moving through corridors where programmed light alters perception. Perceptually: The mirrored ceiling immerses visitors in an ever-changing art piece that includes them and the city. The responsive environment and thought-provoking artworks foster continuous intellectual and emotional engagement.
