Yatai New Dynamic: A Diamond Realm of Love

A Unique Shopping Mall Designed by Junwei Shen

Taking inspiration from the romantic sentiments of Changchun, known as the "Spring City of Northland," Junwei Shen has created a landmark of love with Yatai New Dynamic. This diamond-shaped shopping mall stands as a radiant and transparent structure, inviting people to come closer and experience its unique charm.

In the name of love, Yatai New Dynamic sets itself apart with its design concept of a diamond realm. The mall features five theme spaces spread across seven floors: Diamond Food, Time Travel, City Parlor, Love Castle, and Sky Bridge. Each space offers a distinct experience, catering to the diverse interests of visitors.

One of the highlights of Yatai New Dynamic is its main atrium, which boasts 760 diamond-like light sources that simulate natural light. This clever installation brings a touch of the outdoors inside, creating a sensory tease for shoppers. The use of environmentally-friendly and recyclable materials throughout the mall conveys an Eco-Fashion design philosophy, harmonizing the interaction between people and space.

Spanning over 108,380 square meters, Yatai New Dynamic is a testament to architectural innovation. Its diamond-inspired design extends beyond the exterior, with each floor adopting a diamond-like layout. Irregular and circular lines create a dynamic and interactive platform structure, constantly changing color and material. This composition of diamond surfaces leaves customers with a visually striking impression.

Located in Changchun, the project began in June 2018 and was completed in December 2020. The design team, led by Junwei Shen, overcame the challenge of creating friendly spaces in a building surrounded by elevated roads. Yatai New Dynamic successfully opens up and delivers a unique shopping experience, blending seamlessly with its surroundings.

Yatai New Dynamic has garnered recognition for its exceptional design. It was awarded the Iron A' Design Award in 2021 for its outstanding interior space, retail, and exhibition design. This prestigious accolade is a testament to the mall's well-designed, practical, and innovative features that meet professional and industrial requirements.

Experience the allure of Yatai New Dynamic, where love and design intertwine to create a truly remarkable shopping destination.
