架构师提供的文本描述。商业空间在越艺画廊中起着至关重要的作用。最初的建筑是一座典型的工厂，建于20世纪80年代，有一个18米*18米的预制屋架，在此基础上，它需要重建为一个当代艺术画廊。在这种情况下，对一家普通老工厂的全面保护似乎不值得，然而，它应该为其新的展览功能寻求更多的可能性。

Text description provided by the architects. Commercial space plays a crucial role in the Yue art gallery. The original building is a typical factory built in 1980s with an 18 m * 18 m prefabricated roof truss, based on which it needs to rebuilt as a contemporary art gallery. A complete protection for a normal old factory seems not so worthy in this case, however, it deserves to seek more possibilities for its new exhibition function.

在工厂的原始框架中插入了一个新的空间形式。为了保持和强调原始表面的完整性，历史上的墙几乎没有连接到新的衬里，并得到了完全的保护。同时，我们用新的砖堵塞了均匀的窗户，使之成为一种具有时间深度的新鲜纹理。因此，这两种材料之间有着鲜明的反差，这意味着在老建筑中产生了一种新的精神，这也显示了798艺术领域的本能力量。

A new space form is inserted into the original framework of the factory. In order to maintain and emphasize the integrity of the original surface, the historical wall has nearly no links to the new lining and is protected entirely. Meanwhile, we plugged the homogeneous windows with new brick, which becomes a fresh texture bearing the depth of time. Thus, there is a sharp contrast between the two materials implying a renewed spirit born in the old building, which is also showing the instinct strength in the 798 art area.

在12米高的空间中，商业服务空间被插入到展览空间中，以获取更多的展区。这两个空间是由纺织纹理表面连接起来的.与展览空间相比，商业服务是一个相反的空间，反之亦然：这些是共存的，相互逆转的，相互关联的，但定义明确的空间。

In the 12m height space, commercial service space is inserted into the exhibition space for acquiring more exposition areas. These two spaces are connected by the textile-texture surface. Compared to the exhibition space, the commercial service is a reversed space, and vice versa: these are co-existing, mutual-reversed, inter-connected but defining clearly spaces.

展览空间不仅达到了最可利用的领域和视野，而且产生了极大的丰富性-游客可以在整个空间中穿过商业空间并停留在不同的层次上。像中国传统的山水意象一样，漂浮的空间仅在900平方米的空间内形成。商业空间与展览系统融为一体。透过半透明的管道，人们可以感受到一种艺术氛围。

The exhibition space not only achieves the most available areas and the field of view but also produces the great richness – the visitors could go through the commercial space and stay in different levels in a total space. A floating space, like the traditional Chinese imagery of mountains and waters, is thus formed in a merely 900 m2 space. Commercial spaces are blend in the exposition system. Through the translucent tube, people could feel an art atmosphere.
