Shenzhen Bay SIC65 is located in Shenzhen, a magic city gathering desires to realize dreams with an open and inclusive attitude. This project will create a top private social space specially tailored for urban elites.
Every city should have its own memory. Today, Shenzhen Bay is not only a place name, but also a hope for the future.
When designing Shenzhen Bay SIC65, Yu Zhao imagined the scenes and stories of life here with an owner’s viewpoint, rather than a designer’s.
SIC65 boasts exciting seascape and complete urban infrastructure. The designer hoped that freedom would exist during the whole design process, in order to free the designer himself and also his thought.
Yu Zhao designed Shenzhen Bay SIC6 with the soul labels of inheritance, innovation, personality, flexibility and freedom, to redefine the meaning of “mansion”.
In ancient Chinese language, mansion has the similar concept to detached palace. Entering the modern times, Shanghai’s upper class has built a large number of mansion buildings; Mansion, however, means both inheritance and remodeling in Shenzhen. It belongs to the future and is young, but meanwhile, it needs the accumulation over time and a structure of contemporary life.
Owners, as a witness of a new city and its new culture, have experienced the rapid growth of Shenzhen. The designer aimed to create a more delicate container with slow paces.
The designer, like a director, uses the design language as actors. It forms the process of interior design how to arrange the position of actors, properly connect the various roles to play a scene, and export the designer’s emotions.
Sunshine is perfect to bring different changes to the mood of the space from sunrise to sunset in Shenzhen Bay. In the face of the landscape, SIC 65 embraces the magnificence of the bay and the ecology of the city with a big open-closed pattern here.
Only when the rhythm slows down, can people truly know their flowing time. Space can define the energy of hope and the flow of life in a thick manner.
The designer explored the deeper connotation between abstraction and concreteness, and also between simplicity and complexity, so as to endow people with infinite emotions, which form an environment communicating with people emotionally. The designer hopes to exactly express such life state of contemporary Chinese elites.
