REBORN AND TRANSFORMED
Revived from a historical building, architects work to refine the design elements by combining the local cultural and architectural language. From the consideration of the building's facade to the display of the signboard plan, as well as the design of window surfaces along the street and walk-in interior, the design reinvents the historic block into a modern lifestyle centre. Original store brick is preserved. The shop signage made from rust-coloured metal complements the "saddle wall" of the local architecture. The european-style retro decoration is sporadically introduced to the street, adorning the now vibrant commercial district.
