UUfie上海Ports旗舰店
Located at a major high-end commercial district at the intersection of Changde Road and Nanjing West Road in Shanghai, a new façade is created for the fashion house Ports 1961’s flagship store. The facade is representative of the future vision of Ports 1961 that brings together its origin and evolution. The design evokes the idea of a landform that resembles an iceberg floating freely in the ocean; the building having a sense of being undulated, expanding and contracting, as if shaped by its environment. The facade demonstrates the possibilities of design experimentation, showing the transformation of form, material and technology, while still bringing aspect of both traditional and contemporary interpretations. The structural grandeur of the building attracts attention while its ambivalent nature is uniquely changing with its surroundings.
该旗舰店的外表皮从海面上自由漂浮的冰山中获得灵感，采用现代的演绎方法实现整体统一同时相当壮观，具有吸引力商业外立面。设计使用到30厘米见方的玻璃方体和两条短边为30厘米的垂直等腰三角形玻璃体。这两种玻璃体灵活组合行了了平整的表面或者锯齿状的表面。视觉效果相当突出。入口开在街道转角处，建筑上方有四个窗口状屏幕向城市播放影像，还有一组格栅式屏幕放置在主入口同侧一边的锯齿表面前。此外，沿街还做了一个大型橱窗。让从十字路口而来的人们都注意到这栋建筑。
建筑外表皮磨砂玻璃与喷砂不锈钢与混乱的城市形成巨大的反差。在白天，它白净，反射着阳光。到了夜晚，玻璃砖背后LED光源发出清晰的白色冷光。这是一个形体岁视角不同而发生改变的建筑，但它与城市有些格格不入的高冷气质却始终如一。
The facade is composed of two types of glass blocks; a standard 300mm x 300mm glass block and a custom 300mm x 300mm x 300mm corner glass block. Unlike most glass block masonry constructions, it is not limited to one vertical plane. The combinations of the two types of glass block create a sculpted three-dimensional façade exhibiting cantilevered structures. By incorporating innovative structural engineering and inventing a new joining system in the block itself, an elaborate ornamental stepping canopy is achieved that naturally angles to the flow of pedestrian and allows for four bow windows to be visible from all directions.
The usage of satin glass block and shot blasted stainless steel material is in great contrast to the chaotic city. During the day, it mutes the surroundings, while subtly reflecting the sunlight. In the evening, the view is icy and crisp, and the surface illuminates with embedded LED lights integrated into the joints of the masonry. The differing geometries and changing perspectives of the facade expresses the transformative nature of the city and the people of Shanghai.
