Romanticism 2 in Hangzhou
[Concept] : Net Body / Skin
Date: 2007
Design: SAKO Architects, Beijing
Photographs : Koji Fujii / Nac·sa & Partners Inc.
Clothes are what being cut and made of two-dimensional fabric and
wrap up three-dimensional body. It started with the idea of adjusting
temperature and later grew up into the second skin. Spaces also wrap
up body, adjusting temperature. However being different from clothes,
space cannot move.

Furthermore, instead of space defining elements such as floor, wall
or ceiling, there still have the third skin between space and clothes,
they are partition, furniture and so on. <Clothes like space>
or <Space like clothes> is what we tried to express.
This boutique is located in the neighborhood of Xihu lake, close to
the center of Hangzhou. And ROMANTICISM is a lady brand that is holding
about 500 boutiques.
The organic net is going through the whole space. Just like being
absorbed from the facade into inner room and then changing the shape
smoothly till 1F, wrapping the floor up. Close one side at stairs,
the same net goes to basement, and made out various parts as it did
at 1F in strong form.

The net change its shape into partition, counter, chair, furniture
as well as railing. Act as the third skin, net comprise of bone, flesh
as well as skin. Bone is ordinary reinforcing steel, flesh is form
insulation and glass fiber, and skin is epoxy resin as well as oil
paint.
Some display holes were made in three-dimensional white wall. It is
enlarged motif of body and clothes.

Meanwhile, mirror-finished stainless was used in the ceiling of 1F.
This is for vision impact, illumination and overcoming of the low
ceiling. Objects reflected from curved stainless look like those in
the water. In other words, water should be below us in usual go up
over us, then a fantastic view show up.
