Model Development - Prada's Space


Motion/Fashion/Simplicity/Light/Exchange







Interior Perspective
Prada's space represents a strong sense of movement. To emphasis the power of motion, the building is divided into a series of rooms (only from exterior view) which look like they are moving into any directions. The use of simple geometry and materials are based on the simplicity of Prada's products - sleek leather and dark to light range of colors.


The white walls and the gaps created by different heights of the ceilings ensure the natural light penetrates deep into the exhibition space. The effect of the light is heavily emphasized so that the inhabitants can experience numerous variations in the light. The differences in light and dark spots ensure that diversity is achieved in the spaces.

Elevator for Prada's space: The elevator has multiple-purposes. When the elevator is still, it can be occupied as a space - an element within the building. As a moving object, it allows the passengers to travel from one spot to another, which emphasises on the importance of exchange between the interior and exterior spaces.
