这个摄影工作室位于一栋六层小楼的五楼和六楼。它可以被租给季节性的服装品牌造型、电子商务网站的模特产品摄影和展览。由于它的用途,大部分空间被普通的白墙、木墙、白色天花板和简单的混凝土地板所占据,这些都是许多用户需要的。

This photography studio is located on the fifth and sixth floors of a small six-story building. It can be rented for seasonal apparel brand looks, product photography with models for e-commerce sites, and exhibitions. As a result of its purpose, most of the space is taken up by plain white walls, wooden walls, white ceilings, and simple concrete floors, which are needed by many users.

挑战是如何在这种情况下由这个工作室创造一个独特的摄影点。五楼有一个混凝土楼梯和一个包裹着电梯的混凝土盒子。楼梯本身已经被抛光,露出了被包裹的碎石。通过在有序的白墙和混凝土地板中设计一个不规则的石雕楼梯,楼梯不仅仅是一种运输工具–它成为一种停留,突出了衣服、鞋子和模特。

The challenge was how to create a unique photo spot just by this studio within that situation. The fifth floor features a concrete staircase and a concrete box that encases the elevator. The staircase itself has been polished to reveal the encapsulated gravel. By designing an irregular stonework sculptural staircase amidst the orderly white walls and concrete floor, the staircase becomes more than just a means of transportation – it becomes a stay that accentuates the clothes, shoes, and models.

作为一个摄影工作室,六楼的平面形状不可避免地产生了一些死角。我们没有利用这些死角来存放摄影设备和家具,而是安装了一块带有镜面的扭曲玻璃板,以达到整整4.4米的天花板,形成了一种全新的、独特的视觉效果。

As a photography studio, the sixth floor’s flat shape inevitably created some dead space. Rather than utilizing the dead space for storage of photographic equipment and furniture, a distorted glass panel with a mirrored surface was installed to reach the full 4.4-meter ceiling, resulting in a completely new and unique visual effect.

利用这些扭曲的镜子来创造独特和原始的照片的潜力,将留给利用这个工作室的摄影师和艺术总监的创造力。通过在工作室空间中引入一个意想不到的功能,我希望能激发使用它的创作者的创造力,并希望他们能创作出超越设计师原意的特殊摄影作品。

The potential for using these distorted mirrors to create unique and original photographs will be left to the creativity of the photographers and art directors who utilize this studio. By introducing an unexpected feature into the studio space, I hope to stimulate the creativity of the creators who use it, and that they will produce exceptional photographic works that go beyond the original intent of the designer.
