The design team imaginatively create a number of dramatic space scenes based on science fiction works produced during the “Retro Futurist” era.

The mechanical paddle aircraft with a steam-era shape is transported to this “future deep space” thanks to the design team’s research and manufacture. More people will learn about the exploration between the past and the future as a result of breaking through the curved light orbit like the space-time gate, which served as exactly the design inspiration.

With two floor-to-ceiling windows that mix the natural ecological view of Chinese Parasol Island with a sense of the future from Shenzhen Airport, the main hall looks roomy and airy. The dark gray grid ceilings give us the impression of disorder in outer space while also making it easier to conceal complicated pipeline equipment, lights, and other equipment components, which are good for the empty and clean impression of the space.

The landing module prototype serve as the inspiration for the metal coffee table’s design. The ground is cleverly covered with a layer of refracted light and shadow thanks to the background wall’s smart construction. With the change of time, light can experience free growth in the chaotic universe.

Future architecture and art gene are coupled to realize random switching of various scenes, combinations, or groupings with the surroundings, providing a strong visual identification, multipurpose environment, and limitless exploration freedom. The three components of art, future, and science and technology are all merged together to give people a fresh visual impression. Vintage features and bronzed metallic textures inspire historic factory area settings while preserving industrial memories.

Furthermore, the designer invests effort into maintaining the space’s mechanical aesthetics. Whether it is mostly made of metal or a magical light, it delivers seamless detail processing and visual continuity. The design of the space also pays respect to the traditional retro futuristic morpheme in terms of design. Also, the ancient gold model table and the dark red mirror complement each other, replacing Western philosophy with Oriental, empowering the room a well-organized energy cycle.
