Jiacong Lu. Portfolio Interior Architecture designer with Master of Fine Arts degree from School of Art Institute of Chicago. As a designer, I am constantly seeking inspiration, drawing mostly from humans` interaction with their environments on a fundamental level. This has developed into a deep respect for the environment, both built and natural, and I am constantly seeking bridges to build between these assumed dichotomies.

Because of its key role in domestic transportation .Wuhan was sometimes referred to as the “ Chicago of China�. After analysis the site, the railway is at the north side of the site, Zhongshan Road is at the south side of the site, so the main entrance was designed at the south side.

The way in which we shop has changed dramatically over the past few years. Yet as High Street shopping is replaced with the convenience of the online store, the experience of touching, trying, and smelling an object will never be replaced. Whilst some of the larger chains are struggling to implement web based change, we would like to build a new concept store taking it to another level. The first of many to be rolled out, we hope our concept store is at the cusp of this retail revolution. It is an online store you can walk in to; there is no stock, no cash, no till, and no product to take home All that is needed to make a purchase in the store is a smart phone, (or one of the in-store ďźŒIpads ) . The rest of the available space is dedicated to the range of clothes, shoes, bags and any other things need sell, which means the Slide Concept Store can boast a larger range of stock on a much smaller footprint. .

The original site was an old parking construction, with ramps in the building connecting floors. To make use of the original structure, and keep the function of parking , we hope to construct a store people could do driving and shopping at the same time. So we construct more ramps and stores with stairs, which make people and cars move in Store. At the same time, ramps might help to stimulate customers active in the space. More comunication would happen in this fluid space. ELEVATION
