Not Sweet Dessert Shop

Appreciationstowards Geemo Design(contact: geemodesign@foxmail. We use ambiguity and conflict to express thesweetness and non-sweetness of “NOT SWEET”. Community commerce is a part of our life, but themachine-made form is without any splendidness, weignore such existence around us as always. Theappearance of “NOT SWEET” is designated to breaksuch status, hide around us with an ordinary andquiet pose, and integrate into our daily withoutmincement. The brand “NOT SWEET” under Xiaolanju is a dramaticshop name. in face of the conflict between sweet andnot sweet, new requirements are proposed for whatkind of method should we use to intervene and theconsideration for space. Internally, within the space less than 50 m 2, it will not only meet all functionspossessed by the dessert shop, but also resolve theinterference caused by the bearing column withunilateral length of 1 m for the space. Externally, it should not only reflect the brand effect butavoid the conflict with the surrounding environmentas much as possible. We conceive to form the expression of signalizationfrom our own brand and with the specific geometricshape of “orange” in the space. The space takes a small-scale simple and open box asbasis, takes “orange” as another geometry to embedinto the box, and makes it into a new use space byhollowing the overlaps part between the twogeometries. Thebottom internal retreat will form impendinghorizontal blocks, and then they will cross with thevertical bearing column, to form a new structuralbody in space, with the sculpt suspended into theair as light as silk ribbon. It not only solves thefunction demands, increases the third dimension invision, but also resolves the interference ofbearing column for space. After completing the shaping of space, we use light, material and color to imply the ambiguity andconflict of NOT SWEET. The warm light in the spherical space makes thestructural blocks and texture become vague sometimesand clear sometimes along with the change ofpeople’s angle of view through the diffusiongenerated by the wall surface with orange texture, the space atmosphere will become gentle andambiguous, to form conflict with the black lavaexternal wall surface. When darkness falls, the comparison between orangeand black makes the space full of movement, seemsreadytocomeoutatone’scall, just like a crystal clear sweet orange. 06 Area:47 sqm Photograph: Pian Fangconstructioncompany Nan Xi Xun Ya More: Geemo Design geemodesign@foxmail. com
