ABOUT
The project is based on the two main contradictions of the "demotivation" culture. While giving people the space and rights of "bereavement", my design also provides people with contextualized specific ways to heal "demotivation" emotions. The space module puts 35 kinds of space functions according to the position. Through the mobile design, the space modules can be flexibly combined to form an instant private space and an instant public space to meet different needs.

MY ROLE
Led the design team to design a software integrated spatial installation for AECOM. Completed interaction design by using autopilot system technology and the space product design in cooperation with architects. Built UX flows, information architecture, wireframes and hi-fi prototypes.

◉   background

Phenomena such as continued high pressure and urban diseases have become problems that people generally need to face, and demotivational culture has frequently become a hot topic in urban life. The demotivational culture refers to people expressing their frustration on the Internet and in life due to many unsatisfactory lifestyle, school work, career, emotions, etc. These expressions are pessimistic, reflecting the collective anxiety of people in contemporary society. Especially for the working people, the performance of demotivation is particularly obvious and strong.

◉   problem statement

For the working people, the performance of demotivation is particularly obvious and strong. They are under tremendous psychological pressure and there is nowhere to relieve them.  AECOM, as the planner and designer of the 0101 block of Beijing's sub-center, provided us with design requirements. We hope to build a product that will give people the rights to downbeat and provide the possibility of healing people's demotivation at the same time.

◉   CBD and Mental Health in Various Countries

Compared with other areas of the city, people in the central business districts (CBD) of major cities obviously have more psychological problems, and a higher proportion of people suffer from stress, anxiety and depression. However, people have nowhere to relieve this psychological pressure. The development process of a city is inextricably linked with people's psychological conditions.

◉   Design Area and Demotivation Culture

1 In the future, there will be a large number of office workers in the 0101 block of Beijing's sub-center, and it will be a high-density gathering area for people with "Demotivation Culture"

2 The area is close to the government, and the introduction of the theme of "Demotivation Culture" can arouse the government's attention to the mental state of this group of people, thereby providing a space for dialogue with the government for the spiritual needs of citizens

3 The original design scale of this area is huge and cannot provide a spiritual and cultural space suitable for civil activities
