Description

In the new age of consumerism, people's shopping behavior is changing gradually from physical to virtual. The trend of online shopping leads to the high demand for inventory storage which will alter the proportion of space from customers to goods in the coming future. I chose a concrete plant located near the seashore in Yau Tong, convenient for transportation. More importantly, the architectural language is machine-like which can achieve the machine dynamism of my project. Store Up's core value is to form a monster-like warehouse that merges into the retail sector. The unmanned warehouse is a showroom of machine dynamism where the goods can flow in & out, up & down. It is also a space where treats customers as one of the goods. Therefore, I challenge the verticality of warehouses in which I continued the existing structure, made alterations, and added base on it.
