It uses the names and colors of tequila sunrise, black cherry, blue margarita, and sunset martini as the theme of each area, each space has a different character, and there is a collision between Eastern and Western cultures and aesthetics. It integrates Chinese Sichuan opera and panda characteristics into the design, colliding with western materials and oriental elements.

K11 Art Mall

A huge success since opening, K11 Wuhan in China proves that brick-and-mortar retail can thrive with the right amenity-driven design, an inherent sense of fun, and an eye on the future. Verticality was one of the driving ideas behind the retail planning, encouraging visitors to go upward and explore. Designers achieved this by strategically placing vertical landmarks as well as floor-specific landmarks throughout the mall and also connecting to the adjacent mall via an external bridge.

Woodland

The original building had limited space and heavily relied on artificial lights, which was against common expectations of kindergartens. The design has kept the entire structure and created an atrium. Taking advantage of the original structure, the atrium transforms the liner into a woodland. Columns and beams immediately become trees and bridges. Continuous stairs and slides spiral up around the columns, connecting and activating spaces.
