Flow

The space is blocked in dark and calm black, full of mystery and futuristic vibe. When entering the space, one's eyes will be immediately drawn to the giant art installation on the ceiling, created by the designer based on the aesthetics of the array. The installation, shaped like rounded water drops, is placed in a neat vertical and horizontal pattern and runs in a self-formed cycle. This allows viewers to perceive the rhythm of the flow of space in an unexpected way. People may sense the stillness, simplicity, and ease in this place while they are sitting here.

Moli Landscape

Featuring both high skip-floor and floor-to-ceiling lighting, Moli Landscape allows sunlight, wind and air to flow freely without stagnation. The main facade is blanked, creating an open "cave". Roaming along the twisting stream amid light and shadow, guests may feel the poetic aroma that the literati seek for. The roof lines are designed into large cantilever style, declining with the natural slope, which enables guests to feel like siting in the mountains to experience vitality, temperature and the wild interest of the space.

Poly City Gather

The designer strives to infuse space with life by balancing the functional layout, aesthetics and sensory delight. To do this, he takes simple shapes and bright elements from all nature. The dome creates a sense of infinite fantasy, where everything is unoccupied and people may observe anything in silence in the 12m high, 9m open atrium. This will bring them into an artistic realm of freedom. The midair corridor is unique in its natural beauty while the ceiling vein is designed as a landscape cycle. With these efforts, the symbiosis between nature, art, architecture and space is achieved.

From life trivial to the striving goal, it is people's daily living that weaves the urban prosperous.
