Hard Decoration Design

The SUNAC Chongqing "ONE CENTRAL MANSION" is built along the cliff of the mountain. This deconstructive sculptural building is very recognizable, it looks just like a three-dimensional sculpture naturally born in the mountain. The coordination of architecture, landscape and interior together presents different spatial organization forms through "interspersing, complementary, high and low mixing". It creates an art space of "urban art and culture living room" by the method of light and shadow from the inside to the outside. From the perspective of spatial movement and relationship, designers deal with simplicity and openness, and make the space bigger, empty, and open through simple arrangement and combination without compulsory limitation of functional space to achieve the effect of expanding the space boundary. As the main material of the space, warm light-colored marble is actually more like a concept, and it also minimizes the interference to the space state. The exterior facade lines of the building are divided into the interior space after being deconstructed and adjusted for density. Designers use "folded panels" to refine the space at the split points. Pointing at the huge inverted cone in the sky, the glass allows the divinity of light to pour out in front of people without any reservation. The huge staircase extends into the air with the end extended to nowhere, like a cyclical cycle, focusing on the line of sight and so on. The direction of the space, the movement of behavior, and the direction of the ceiling are all presented in a "folded surface" style. Similar but alienated forms have repeatedly appeared in indoor spaces, and the interpenetration of "light and shadow" at different interfaces creates more possibilities for places. The randomness of the line of sight will produce different visual paths. The internal spatial elements and the interface of the building have a visually permeable relationship, and the space becomes complex and interesting. Part of the space-the swimming pool, is directly exposed as part of the architecture structure. The exposure of the structure naturally forms the most powerful orderly array in the connection system of building and indoor space. At the same time, it emphasizes the integrity of the inner wall, such as the option of the space tone and the direction of the stone groove. The penetration of light and shadow into the space also shows more sense of texture. To some extent, it starts with the expression of "emptiness", which intuitively and directly expands the boundary attribute of space.
