Fusion: A Harmonious Blend of Opposition

Opposition and Harmonization in Kris Lin's Sale Center Design

Design of the project is dominated by the two themes: "opposition" and "harmonization" with the discussion on how to develop from opposition to harmonization.

Kris Lin, a renowned designer, has created a masterpiece in the form of Fusion, a sale center that beautifully embodies the concepts of opposition and harmonization. This unique design showcases the delicate balance between two contrasting elements, resulting in a harmonious blend that is both visually stunning and functional.

The core idea behind Fusion is the recognition that opposition and harmonization coexist in all aspects of the universe. The two sides, although opposite, are intricately connected and complement each other, forming the very fabric of the material world. Kris Lin has ingeniously translated this concept into a physical structure, creating a building that is a testament to the laws of nature.

One of the remarkable features of Fusion is its ability to seamlessly combine opposing elements through intersection and plug-in techniques. This innovative approach allows for the creation of a complete individual that achieves perfect harmonization. The sculptural façade of the building is a testament to this design philosophy, showcasing the successful fusion of contrasting elements.

Not only does Fusion excel in its aesthetic appeal, but it also serves multiple functions as a building. The interior space is thoughtfully designed to fulfill three main purposes: display, sales, and investment invitation. This integration of interior functions with the overall design ensures a seamless and cohesive experience for visitors.

Located in Xiamen, China, Fusion was completed in August 2014. The project posed several challenges, particularly in realizing the sculptural façade. However, Kris Lin and his team, including Jiayu Yang, overcame these obstacles through meticulous research and innovative design techniques.

The exceptional design of Fusion has been recognized with the prestigious Silver A' Design Award in the Architecture, Building, and Structure Design category in 2015. This accolade is a testament to the remarkable expertise and innovation demonstrated in this project. Fusion stands as a shining example of the harmonious blend of opposition, showcasing the power of design to create beauty and functionality.
