Youth S.P.O.T. for HKFYG @ Tuen Mun

Circular Spine

 

In order to get rid of the undesirable Y-Shaped spaces imposed by the existing site condition, a “Circular Spine” is superimposed onto the main circulation corridor which integrates the reception, audio-visual spines, I.T. network booths, internet café as well as the career and studies corner.
The circular spine successfully deconstructed the odd shaped entrance and spatial quality by introducing the curved up ceiling.

 

Infinite Perspective

 

Apart from the functional facilities equipped along the circular spine, the curvilinear quality of the spine creates” Infinity” in visual perspective as the metaphor for youth development as well as injecting the “Young” and “ Energetic” ambience.

 

Convertible Space

 

As the Youth Centre is designed to cater for a number of functions at different seasons; for example, Career Development or Education, Counseling and Tutorials, Seasonal Activities and Gatherings, Study Room and Play Room etc
Many of these functional requirements are well equipped with convertible configurations and transformable in different seasons to fit a particular purpose.

Uninterrupted Pocket Space

 

Internet Café
The Internet café located at the Circular Spine is an individual pocket for individual to work on Internet for privacy without major disturbance.
