JOYS Space / Onexn

Paradigm: a small space in big city. Occupying 9 square meters, JOYS is a new space paradigm in the city. It's small but doesn't lack depth, since it's the integration of ideas, thoughts, cultures, and neighborhood. 9 square-meters is a scarce small spatial scale in the city undergoing rapid development. It has nothing to do with blueprint, speed or magnificence, but is about a small spatial narrative that is easy to be ignored but indispensable. We identified a perspective of intervention by taking into consideration both spatial reality and social significance, intending to endow the 9-square-meter space a sense of existence and enable it to bring people closer.
