Abstract

Against the backdrop of cultural industry upgrading and urban regeneration, the single-function model of design museums can no longer meet diversified public needs. This study takes the China Industrial Design Museum as the research object, aiming to explore the spatial optimization strategy for functional integration. Based on literature review, field investigation and in-depth interviews, this study systematically analyzes the spatial layout, functional structure, operation mode and visitor experience of the museum. The results show that the museum has a professional collection system and clear positioning, but still faces prominent problems such as insufficient functional synergy, monotonous circulation design, weak interactive experience and lack of auxiliary spaces. Multiple functions are simply superimposed rather than organically integrated. To solve these problems, this study constructs three functional integration modes: collection-culture inheritance, exhibition-community service, and education-research-industry renewal. Four design principles are proposed, namely functional collaboration, spatial adaptability, experience priority and sustainable development. Furthermore, this study puts forward a phased spatial optimization scheme from the aspects of circulation reconstruction, functional zoning, material selection and exhibition system optimization. This study enriches the theoretical system of spatial design of professional design museums, and provides practical reference for functional upgrading and spatial renewal of similar museums.
