From topographic to social aspects, there are layers which gradually lead us to different zones in this district. The shopping mall is designed to be clear in how layer works in user’s journey and experience. Layers in level difference Horizontal layer is one of the concepts in this design. . From the view of the main passage, the bridges form overlapping effects. Views and experience are different from each bridge.
UG
Layers in vertical In-and –out or shifting of blocks are arranged along the façade of main passage. Circulation Corridor are open and welcoming. This shifting of organization provides users feelings of upgrading or downgrading. Layers in categories Shops and functional areas are zoned by layers. The ground floor retail shops are mainly eateries and fashion types which can match with those existing shops in Gough Street and Kau Yu Fong. A functional area is created in middle level. Thus, the types of retail shops are categorized for mainly art craft, music stuff and art related goods around the functional area. Section AA’

Sprout Out of the Box Design Concept
Draft and testing of real scale modules
Ones IDEAS is as great as a seed. IDEAS are energetic. Seed sprouts out vividly as IDEAS is breaking a frame and jumping out of a box, which is the cubic module. As seed grows up stronger, IDEAS grows in expanding our thoughts and giving it meaning. It combines different angle of views that is presented by the hollow structure in one module.
After the physical model was made in a success. We tested three scale of module-- 10cm cube, 15cm cube and 20 cube. As the site is indoor area, the height is limited in 2.3m. We finally dediced to take the 15cm cube as our basic module.

How does one grasp the intangible? Or catch the invisible? These are the guiding principles for the four works presented along the Stanley Promenade – a site that due to its wide horizon and shimmering waves certainly invites such questions. Fittingly each of the artworks in their own way explores the possibilities opened up by the ephemeral nature of light and its relationship to the contemporary city and natural environment.

A drop of water creates a series of ripples on the sea surface. This is the image that inspired the concept of Floating Light. Organised into an array of 8 abstracted strands of twisted ripples, the work is composed of 585 pieces of plexiglass that, in their ever-changing form, movement and transparency, imitates the essence of a ripple.

As visitors walk along the promenade and encounter the installation, they will recognise these “city natural vista of Stanley Bay. At night time, light emerging from the openings in the sculpture are reminiscent of Victoria Harbour’s night scene. Twilight embraces the beauty of both the natural and the man-made world as one, and consequently challenges visitors to think about the relationship between the city and the nature.

energy. Painting with Light uses the various properties of light to depict the wonderfully perhaps the most vibrant element in nature, blooming and revels in the joys of the spectrum of light. By enhancing the rich experience of interaction between light and shadow, it stimulates us to pause and rethink our perception of light and colour. Natalie Cheung, Antonia Ip and Flora Lo
