Praxis d' Studio renovation
Beijing, China
Project Featured on Aug 24, 2016
The original space was a two-story steel frame structure with a glass facade annexed to a brick storage building beside a large car park at the east. The glare of sunlight through the glass and the activities from car park are disturbing and the space had a feeling of a greenhouse. These factors calls for design strategies that best suit the existing conditions and needed to be done as simply and economically as possible.
The intention of the design was to create a space for thinking. For many of us, the higher the space, the further our thinking goes. Our minds work the best when the space provides physical comfort, feels relaxed, is breathable and positioned. The priority was to craft a space that engenders creativity and leaves enough room to think in comfort.
Therefore, a portion of floor slab was taken out to create a double high space between the entry way and the work sector. The glass facing the parking lot was applied with a layer of sun panel, so that it blurs the view of the parking lot and provides solar and acoustic insulation.
In further dealing with the distractions from the car park outside, a curved wall was placed inside the workspace to block the external view. It was made of steel frame and sun panels with LED lights embedded. It forms a secluded area perfect for inspirational brainstorm sessions. At night when illuminated, the installation transforms into a wall of light, providing intimate surroundings and becoming beacon for creative thinking.
The book shelf is comprised of rectangular wood frames that allow flexible assembly. The front desk?s curved surface that was made from layers of extruded foam board, and from this 3D surface, two benches and a floor lamp were generated out of PVC tubes.
