FLIP studio 番番營作

Based in Shanghai, FLIP studio 番番營作 designs retail showrooms, cafes, and art spaces marked by expressive tectonic contrasts, pairing kinetic gridded partitions and raw, sculptural geometries with delicate woven elements and striking structural accents. The work serves as a strong reference when detailing large-scale operable interior enclosures, integrating custom structural bracing into retail display systems, or negotiating delicate spatial insertions beneath heavy concrete building shells.
