The K11 MUSEA is located in the heart of Hong Kong. In this composite shopping centre the three-storied “Donut Playhouse”, connected by slides from ground floor to basement, is designed to be the very first kids-oriented shopping arcade in the city.
“Donut Playhouse” consists of three main zones: Body, Mind and Soul. From the simple perspective of a kid, the basic elements of point, line and plane were manipulated to support different purposes given to the zones: a space for exercise, a space for learning and a space for performance respectively. Kid’s development was nurtured through introspection, exploration and discovery in enhancing the physical, mental and spiritual quality. Public facilities including concierge, seating, and directory are all catered for kid’s ergonomics. The family washrooms are all catered for easy access of adult’s and kid’s height: cubicles, washing islands and “Co-wee-wee” zone in the male washroom are specially designed to provide user-friendly, fun and out-of-expectation experience for building closer human relationships, it’s both a recreation of the childlike and a manifestation of the child’s pride.
