Production Technology

Under the limitation of the Class A fireproof materials, common materials are used through unique technology so that it can achieve batch and modularization in the project. The colorful embellishments in the scene echo the exotic customs of people have gone to sea at the Ningbo port since ancient times.

Design Challenge

The challenge is the abstraction of the butterfly and how to find the right angle of embellishment to highlight the breathing and artistic sense so that the butterfly can avoid the slightly vulgar impression in the past.

Project Duration

The project was designed from December 2018 to May 2021, and it finished in May 2021 in Ningbo, China.

Operation Flow

Although the cost is moderate, it brings great difficulty for the bi-curved hollow metal mesh on construction technology and engineering nodes. Inspired by Zhou Li's sculpture, the design concept is realized through hand drawing and 3D models. After further calculating the quotation and confirming with the construction firm, we split the installation into a size that can be installed and transported, and finally, it can be completed.

Research

The project uses modern design techniques to highlight the current theme of "eating at the right time" in the food hall, creating a lively dining atmosphere.

Inspiration

The overall design is inspired by the local fishing culture in Ningbo, while the floor-to-ceiling metal mesh and butterfly embellishment are inspired by the sculpture "Cocoon", whose author was Zhou Li, a contemporary artist.
