The design concept of Beijing Oak Bay Sales Center is "Time". The exterior of the building is a combination of the red bricks of classic academic buildings and the glass curtain walls of contemporary buildings. They present a contrast between the old and the new, the virtual and the real, creating a unique experience of "time" in which reality and the future interact. This is the first innovative practice project in China that combines glass brick and acrylic.The internal light transmission of glass bricks combined with the external lighting makes a wall embedded with "time" a reality.
