WUUX Architecture Design Studio creates a workplace for Beijing Tongrentang Health to support live broadcasting and health initiatives.
WUUX Architecture Design Studio unveiled the Tongrentang Health Live Broadcast Base in Daxing in late 2023. Occupying an expansive 5800 square meters, the design integrates large health industry concepts, services, demands, and technology. The goal is to establish a cutting-edge, comprehensive, and profitable shared space for live broadcasts.
The “Tongrentang Health 5G Shared Innovation Live Broadcast Base” pioneers the metaverse wave in the large health sector. The five-story space includes the IP scene center, shared office space, product selection center, and live broadcast rooms, presenting a blue ocean for WUUX Architecture Design Studio.
Oriental Futurism characterizes the design, blending bare scaffolding, galvanized steel plates, and golden glazed tiles. As visitors ascend, historical and futuristic elements converge, symbolizing Tongrentang’s brand culture and forward-looking vision.
Comprehensive space utilization is a focal point, breaking dimensional walls for dynamic interactive spaces. Live broadcasts transcend enclosed grids, fostering innovation and enhancing human mobility. The design emphasizes simplicity, contrasting with Tongrentang’s cultural roots.
The live broadcast base aligns with Tongrentang’s innovative strategy, reshaping offline stores into live broadcast rooms. This move is poised to double store commercial value, linking brand IP with users and promoting a healthy lifestyle.
WUUX Architecture Design Studio, through revolutionary spatial construction, propels Tongrentang towards brand strategies of achieving super traffic, super IP, and super value. The design envisions a future large health ecosystem, aligning with urban civilization’s evolution.
Project Planning
The project’s unique design requirements revolved around creating a cutting-edge and comprehensive space for live broadcasts in the large health industry. WUUX Architecture Design Studio aimed to integrate avant-garde design concepts with services, demands, and technology. The challenge was to seamlessly blend physical and virtual spaces, incorporating a five-story structure that includes the IP scene center, shared office space, product selection center, and live broadcast rooms.
The design sought to break traditional norms, fostering dynamic interactive spaces and embracing the metaverse concept. This involved overcoming the visual conflict and sense of the future by breaking the dimensional wall. The use of semi-open facades, circular bars, and simple geometric forms addressed the spatial layout and functional requirements. This design aimed to symbolize Tongrentang’s brand culture while projecting a forward-looking vision.
The space utilization strategy focused on transforming massive demands into higher spatial requirements. Notably, the live broadcast base was intended to redefine offline stores, acting as a template and database for normalized live broadcast rooms.
