Skylight

Sales Center for YANGO

This is a sales center in a community in Yiwu, China. The biggest problem the project designer faced is that the interior space is relatively deep. Also, there is no large glass curtain wall on the exterior of the building, which blocks the natural light and leads to poor indoor lighting. The design strategy is to employ skylights and introduces natural light in through the fifth facade of the building, thereby solving the problem of insufficient lighting in the interior space.

The project is located in the core area of Choujiang Street in Yiwu City, China, which is the central old town.The project is a community sales center. In order to solve the problem of insufficient lighting, the designer combined the skylight with the ceiling decoration art in traditional Chinese architecture, caisson.

Inspiration

The introduction of the skylight is inspired by caisson patterns, the decorative art of the ancient Chinese architecture. Caisson ceiling, the unique decorative part of the indoor ceiling in traditional Chinese architecture, not only represents the aesthetic value of the Chinese people, but also a spiritual symbol of the communication between heaven and mankind.
