Applying a User-Centric Approach When Designing for Future Society
|
|
Located in an ancient temple area in Beijing’s South, Fayuansi Hutong was selected to be part of a larger renovation and urban revival project. The buildings were to be stripped back into their original state and assigned new functions to attract a younger, modern crowd. 5 Star Plus Retail Design was assigned to create a mixed use commercial interior combining a shared workspace function, a coffee shop and book store into one space.
Shared workspaces in combination with mixed use designs are a current social trend and very popular among millennials and younger generations. This type of space creates flexibility and a certain dynamic as it allows users to work in a coffee shop, socialize, and have lectures and events all in the same space.
