项目 – 在杭州萧山区的核心地带，一座昔日的玩具厂华丽转身，摇身一变成为宠物爱好者和他们毛茸茸伙伴的天堂。异规设计工作室的最新力作"Healing Pets"，将这座工业遗存改造成一个充满活力的社区中心，彰显人与动物之间的深厚情谊。

这个300平方米的空间巧妙地融合了新与旧，既保留了建筑的工业特色，又注入了现代气息。外露的屋顶结构与流畅的现代元素交织在一起，营造出质地和年代感的动态交融。这种并置效果通过精心挑选的材料得到进一步强化——粗犷的水洗石、镶嵌鹅卵石的混凝土，以及温暖的海洋胶合板和谐共处，构成了一首触感交响曲，既经久耐用，又能让各种大小的爪子踩踏其上倍感舒适。

设计的核心是一个引人注目的品牌标识，它将普通的坡道提升为强有力的视觉主题。这个坡道形式不仅方便宠物通行，更成为了一个统一元素，从平面图形无缝过渡到立体空间干预。最终呈现出的是一个浑然一体的环境，从指示牌到家具，每一个细节都彰显了项目以宠物为中心的理念。

异规设计工作室巧妙利用挑高空间，打造出既独立又相互连通的区域。温馨的咖啡区自然延伸到中央活动空间，上方是容纳更多宠物友好设施的夹层。这种垂直扩展不仅最大化了功能性，还让自然光线全天候倾泻而入，为空间注入生机。

"Healing Pets"项目是巧妙细致的包容性设计的典范。这里通过共同对动物的热爱来强化城市肌理，为我们的城市如何演变成为包容所有居民——无论是人类还是动物伙伴——提供了蓝图。

Project - In the heart of Hangzhou's Xiaoshan district, a former toy factory has been brilliantly reimagined as a haven for pet lovers and their furry companions. Informal Design Studio's latest project, Healing Pets, transforms an industrial relic into a vibrant community hub that celebrates the bond between humans and animals.

The 300-square-meter space artfully blends the old with the new, preserving the building's industrial character while infusing it with contemporary flair. Exposed roof structures intertwine with sleek modern insertions, creating a dynamic interplay of textures and eras. This juxtaposition is further enhanced by the thoughtful use of materials – rough-hewn washed stone, pebble-infused concrete, and warm marine plywood come together in a tactile symphony that's both durable and inviting for paws of all sizes.

At the core of the design is a striking brand identity that elevates the humble ramp into a powerful visual motif. This sloping form, essential for pet accessibility, becomes a unifying element that flows seamlessly from 2D graphics to 3D spatial interventions. The result is a cohesive environment where every detail, from signage to furniture, reinforces the project's pet-centric ethos.

Informal Design Studio's masterful manipulation of the double-height space creates distinct yet interconnected zones. A welcoming café area spills into a central activity space, crowned by a mezzanine level that houses additional pet-friendly amenities. This vertical expansion not only maximizes functionality but also allows natural light to cascade through the interior, animating the space throughout the day.

Healing Pets stands as a testament to thoughtful, inclusive design. It's a place where the urban fabric is strengthened through the shared love of animals, offering a blueprint for how our cities can evolve to embrace all their inhabitants – human and four-legged alike.
