Material source:
Ordinary residential project
Material features:
Using common construction site leftovers such as rebar, wood, and cement as the media, a collage was created to depict the image of human existence, connection, and unity.
Coming Together
The work shows the perspective of the developer, looking at the construction process of each building, including starting from scratch, the different stages of design, drawing, construction, and finally on-site planting.
The work contains abstract metaphors of how the beams, columns, foundations, bricks, boards and screws that stabilize the building are all essential to the overall project, just like the different professionals working in each department at Farglory who are playing their parts as best as they can to make a project successful.
Leftover materials commonly found at construction sites were used as the medium.
The collage technique is used to depict the imagery.
Expectation
The work shows the perspective of the consumers, imagining how their future home will be decorated when the shell building is handed over to them.
Within the work are abstract symbols of the construction site: temporary lights, a cement floor, a ladder and steel structures; the image of home is created with a person relaxing, reading, music, paintings and plants, forming a space that is situated between the state of being under construction and completion.
The heart of a home is a person, and the home that a person needs is a space to relax. Trustworthy construction is the most fundamental element of a building.
Cement and rebar symbolize the construction site.
Hanging paintings and plants to create the image of home.
