Design Details
- Unique Properties
- Designing is a journey of exploring. In the project of Vanke Joy Hill, MDO wants to create a ceremonial community lounge that can trigger emotional resonance. The design uses modern techniques to portray Lingnan culture. The interplay of light, color, and sequence provides a beautiful and smooth rhythm to the space.
- Inspiration
- This work is inspired by Dongguan's urban symbols. The hanging installation is inspired by the undulating silhouette of the roof of the Wok Ear House. The bamboo material with high plasticity is chosen as the raw material. Based on the local intangible cultural heritage Knitting Technique of Dongguan’s Straw, the bamboo strips are rearranged, combined, and intertwined to form a rhythmic movement from the simple to the complex and manifest a uniquely artistic atmosphere in the space.
- Research
- This project is to explore the connection of oriental aesthetics and modern design, traditional images and modern symbols. MDO respects and uses reason to refine the urban culture of Dongguan, depicts the forgotten memories through traditional handicrafts and materials, and transforms these memories into new material elements through a continuous fusion of modern design.The huge volume, dense and light footed materials are constantly constructed, conveying a positive force to people.
- Challenge
- MDO believes that a city’s symbols are signs that connect people with its culture. To this end, MDO integrates design with culture, space, and people’s lives with an open mind.
- Realization and Technology
- The use of red stone is inspired by the traditional building material red sandstone, which provides a unique collage of textures for each column instead of the spontaneity of red sandstone. The Ingo Maurer Yoruba Rose lamp is placed on the reception desk to greet visitors in a light and elegant manner. The hanging installation is inspired by the undulating silhouette of the roof of the Wok Ear House. The bamboo material with high plasticity is chosen as the raw material.
- Operation and Interaction
- The reception area adopts the layout of axial symmetry to draw people’s attention to the end of the space. The red stones and the baking painted background echo each other, bringing a unique visual experience to visitors. The array of high colonnades creates a strong sense of ceremony and order for the space. As the empty area under the high ceiling is open and flexible, MDO hopes to build it into a community lounge for a wide variety of scenes. The design capitalizes on the scale of the site with red high-gloss lacquered bookshelves bringing a sense of warmth to the space.
- Project Duration and Location
- The project started in April 2021 and finished in October 2021.
