Design Details
- Unique Properties
- As an entertainment venue mainly for uncovering the riddles, the design is also trying to express a sense of reasoning and solving riddles. From the beginning of the door, the simple square element collage constitutes a sense of layering, which is a set of puzzles to be solved by others, and with rough walls, the overall feeling is both modern and hard-nosed, very close to the atmosphere of brain burning reasoning in the game hall.
- Inspiration
- The cross-section of the device is composed of three cuboids, when extending along the trend, it uses sometimes side, sometimes front and sometimes reverse side, so as to analogy the sense of twist of Mobius Band in the space. The orange device seems to be constantly changing and rotating in the three-dimensional space, metaphoring the complexity, uncertainty and impermanence of puzzles. The whole space is matched with transparent tables and chairs, adding a wonderful atmosphere.
- Research
- The striking shop name "Trumen" is full of movement because of the element of a runaway villain. With the catchy slogan "the scene of the case is no accident", it attracts customers to move on and explore the truth. The interior space reflected by the large glass windows enriches the facade vision, at the same time breaks the boundary between inside and outside, and arouses people's infinite curiosity and imagination.
- Challenge
- The stairway connecting the three floors also creates a kind of suspenseful atmosphere. The walls are all crisscross with stainless steel strips, and the light diffuses on them, which scatter jagged reflections, they are like stars and change indefinitely. In order to further enrich the light change, the stair step adopts glass step, and the middle interlayer is equipped with orange film of light belt. In addition, there is no direct lighting for the whole stairwell.
- Realization and Technology
- The ground is paved with gray terrazzo, the wall is decorated with cement, and the ceiling is simply painted with emulsion paint, which saves cost and creates a contrast between matte and high gloss surfaces.
- Operation and Interaction
- It is worth emphasizing that all the junctions have been sewn without glue or mending. The designer try his best to make the material reflect a kind of primitive feeling, which symbolize the pure and primitive fun of burning brain.
- Project Duration and Location
- The project started in July 2019 in Kunming and finished in October 2019 in Kunming.
- Specifications
- The project covers a total of 360 square meters. The game hall is divided into three floors, the first and third floors are game rooms, and the second floor is directly across the street.
