A Utopia Serve for Women
Fall 2018
Project Statement：
With the economic independence of modern women, they have more choices to spend their reconstructed time. However, in China, there are still limited spaces catering to the female population. Women cannot find a sense of belonging in society. Therefore, this project is to create a new social experience for urban women. According to the survey, the hangout space should meet the following needs: eating and drinking, reading, arranging flowers, manicuring, massaging, and displaying artworks.

Building Analysis
This project preserves part of the original industrial framework, taking advantage of the large windows and giant machines. The complicated existing layout and drastic ceiling height can be an interesting canvas for designers to play with their imagination.
Concept Statement：
Georgia O'Keeffe is one of the most significant and intriguing artists of the 20th century, known internationally for her boldly innovative art. Her distinct flowers, dramatic cityscapes, glowing landscapes, and images of bones against the stark desert sky are iconic and original contributions to American Modernism. As space only serves women, her attitude can represent modern women. As a result, this project is inspired by her artworks.

The inspiration for the seating unit comes from the poppy painting by O'keeffe. The flower is made up of four chairs (petals) and a table (pistil) as if growing from the ground.
