Golden A' Design Award Winner 2025
A vast interior entertainment space unfolds before you, combining industrial architectural elements with immersive projected imagery to create an environment of dramatic atmospheric power. Scanning from background to foreground, the distant wall features illuminated archways receding in sequence, each outlined in warm amber light that creates a rhythmic progression into depth, suggesting passage toward unseen spaces beyond. The ceiling dominates the upper two-thirds of the composition, transformed into a luminous display of cosmic imagery featuring swirling nebular forms in cool cerulean blue transitioning through lavender to deep violet, suggesting the appearance of interstellar gas clouds photographed by space telescopes, with areas of brilliant white suggesting distant star fields. The right side of the space presents a contrasting projection of fire-like imagery in warm vermillion, orange, and coral tones that seem to flicker and flow like molten energy, creating dynamic tension against the cool celestial blues. Supporting this celestial canopy, angular steel trusses in deep charcoal and oxidized burgundy tones angle dramatically across the space, their industrial character providing grounding counterpoint to the ethereal projections, their surfaces suggesting weathered metal with the tactile quality of rough iron. The floor presents a dramatic expanse of highly polished dark marble, cool and smooth as glass, its veined surface reflecting the cosmic imagery above to create a doubled visual experience, as if one stands between two infinite spaces. Amber-gold light strips outline doorways and architectural transitions, providing warm wayfinding accents against the predominantly cool ambient illumination. The overall atmosphere feels vast yet intimate, combining the scale of a cathedral with the technological wonder of a planetarium, inviting a sense of standing within cosmic space while remaining grounded on luxurious stone. The temperature of light varies across the space, cool and contemplative overhead, warm and inviting at thresholds, creating zones of emotional variation within the unified environment.
Hypertank is an educational and entertainment complex that combines design expertise with visual artists to create captivating interstellar experiences. Inspired by mankind's obsession with interplanetary travel and cosmic phenomena, the project aims to construct sensory stimulations that inspire imagination and exploration. It includes spatial sequences such as boarding deck, interactive elevator chambers, a grand concourse, hibernation pods, transportation capsules, and leisure hubs. Guests can fully engage in galactic expeditions through interactive animations and customized resonances.
