The temporary architecture GIFT DOME is particularly created and designed for the exhibition & the pop-up shop during the 20th anniversaries of "ELLE DECORATION ". The creativity of this space combines the "sense of surprise" from the blind box and the diverse colors extracted from life. By combining the "joy of life" and "daily colors", the entire exhibition space is transformed into a huge "blind box" and named GIFT DOME .The design is based on sustainability and color, creating a dynamic and variable space installation for audiences, a space that can be participated in during the exhibition, a box that can bring surprises to everyone, and a pavilion that can be recycled and reused. The main structure of the design consists of three parts: a cushioning air bag from the most common degradable material in our lives-express packaging; a blind box container made of metal; and a frame system constructed of reused metal.
The use of air bags in the design is not only the external texture of the blind box, but also as a carrier for the transformation design of functional furniture. They will be reconstructed into public seats, bar tables and other furniture systems through the tightening of woven belts, and will be recycled and used again during the exhibition. Its function is constantly transformed between packaging and functional props, from the logistics packaging for displaying goods to becoming a functional product on site, and then can become logistics packaging for sold goods again after the exhibition. In terms of the planning of space, we designed a semi-open space, divided into two areas, the outer exhibition area is more like a square, where people can rest, communicate, share and experience. The inner space carries the functions of ELLEDECO's new IP DECO.KIOSK, providing a better reading experience in a relatively private space atmosphere for the audience.
