Aimer Lingerie Factory
Aimer Lingerie is a leading national company in producing under and body ware which started their business back in 1992.
In recent years the importance of lingerie and lingerie related products increased more and more. Therefore the client is now planning to build a complex which is not only housing a production line, but also a distribution center, storage area, research and development area, and offices. This complex should be able to represent an image of his company and the label to the outside. So as to fulfill the requirements of the company’s flagship, the design is based on six key points: unity, functionality, communication, density, breathing capability and inner landscape.
Unity: a single complex is going to represent an entire company. To strengthen the company image, the different functions will be housed under a single façade, so as for the complex to appear as a whole.
Functionality: use of rational volumes to maximize efficiency. A factory is meant to be productive; and the architectural design should therefore start from defining the most suitable volumes for each different function.Communication: having such different functions under one roof should serve to make the company work as a whole. So as to improve the quality of the factory, a platform communicating the different parts of it is set at level +13 m.
Density: the site needs to be optimized. In order to allow for a potential growth of the complex, the building is compressed to the southern part of the site.
Breathing: this complex is not just another factory, but something else. To make this “something else” real, the quality of the environment is improved by treating the building as a volume crossed by air, light and green.
Inner landscape: the building is turned inside-out, so that the landscape becomes an intrinsic part of it. Not only does the landscape become a retreat area, but it also brings life into the building.

爱慕内衣有限公司成立于1992年，是国内内衣行业的领军人物。
由于女士内衣和内衣相关产品受到越来越多的关注，所以业主想建造一个囊括了生产线、物流中心、储藏区、科研开发区和办公区的时尚集合体。
这个时尚集合体是企业的代言，展现企业的形象和个性。为了满足企业旗舰店的需求，我们的设计基于六个要点：整体性、功能性、共享性、密度、可呼吸性和内部景观。
整体性：在不同的功能区域外附加同样的表皮，使建筑具有整体感。建筑形态上的整体感展现出力量，凸显企业的有力形象。
功能性：工厂的生产性质意味着建筑应该提供理性的、高效的环境。我们从各功能所适宜的空间尺度、位置出发，使功能布局发挥最大的生产效益。
共享性：集合体中有众多的功能区域，为了让所有部分相互联系，在12m高度上有一个共享平台，创造不同的区域间的交点。
密度：基地的密度状况需要优化。建筑被压缩到场地的南端，以留出未来可利用的再次建设用地。
可呼吸性：这不是千千万万工厂里的一个，它是与众不同的。它的与众不同在于我们把它看作一个容纳空气、阳光和绿色的容器来设计，它拥有高质量的环境。
内部景观：建筑的内外发生了置换，景观成为了它涵蓄在内的部分。内部景观不仅仅是一个休闲空间，它同时把生命带入了建筑。
