Project Overview

Located at DONGPENG’s former Sanitary Ware Plant No. 2 in Chancheng District, Foshan, T2M was created to address two interconnected challenges. After the original production function was phased out, the factory faced underuse, the potential loss of industrial memory, and the resource burden associated with demolition and reconstruction. At the same time, concepts such as sustainable materials, circular economy and ESG remained highly technical and difficult for the public to experience in daily life.

In October 2023, DONGPENG launched the renewal of T2M through DP LAB. The name refers to both “The Second Mine”—recovering value from urban and industrial resources—and “The Second Mind”—encouraging a new way of thinking about sustainable living. By retaining the existing industrial structure, reusing original objects, and introducing art, design and material innovation, the project transformed the former factory into an open green co-creation space serving local communities, students, designers, industry partners, government bodies and social organizations.

The project aims to reduce demolition-led redevelopment while establishing an operating model that combines sustainable materials research and exhibition, public climate education, study visits, volunteering and community engagement, enabling users to understand, experience and participate in low-carbon action.

项目背景

项目位于广东省佛山市禅城区东鹏原洁具二厂。随着原生产功能退出，旧厂房面临空间闲置、工业记忆消失及拆除重建带来的资源消耗；同时，绿色材料、循环经济和ESG理念专业门槛较高，公众缺少可触摸、可参与的日常场景。2023年10月，东鹏依托DP LAB东鹏创新实验室启动T2M二场焕新，以“第二座矿山/第二种思维”为概念，坚持保留既有工业结构、修复再利用原有物件，通过艺术、设计和材料创新，将旧厂房转化为面向社区公众、学生、设计师、行业伙伴及政府社会组织开放的绿色共创空间。项目旨在减少大拆大建，并建立集可持续材料研究展示、气候教育、研学交流、志愿服务和社区活动于一体的运营机制，使绿色低碳从企业理念转化为使用者能够看懂、体验并参与的具体行动。T2M于2023年10月启动，2025年4月正式开放，并明确选择保留既有工业结构、通过修复再利用和艺术设计介入活化旧厂房。

Project Implementation

The project is supported by DONGPENG Holdings. DP LAB leads overall planning, curation, operations and partnership development, while DP Eco Material provides sustainable materials, waste-to-resource technologies and application support. Artists, designers, brands, universities, social organizations and local environmental authorities participate as co-creators.

First, to address underused industrial space and the resource burden associated with demolition-led redevelopment, the project began in October 2023 with a clear principle: retain rather than demolish. Existing industrial structures and spatial memory were preserved, while original objects, reclaimed materials and factory components were incorporated through repair, reuse and measured intervention. Sustainable materials research, art exhibitions, lifestyle experiences, cultural programs and public activities were embedded in the existing building, transforming a former production facility into a platform for urban sustainability and co-creation.

Second, to make technical and abstract sustainability concepts accessible, the project adopted a “readable, touchable and applicable” materials approach. It established a Sustainable Materials Library, Project New Mine, and a Materials Aesthetics Laboratory. The second-season exhibition, MATTER NOW!, launched in August 2025 and brought together more than 30 domestic and international brands, catalogued over 300 sustainable materials, and displayed more than 500 recycled-material samples and waste-conversion outcomes. Waste ceramics, steel slag, fly ash, mining residues and other resource streams were explained through physical samples, films, finished products, installations and educational panels. ESG, the UN Sustainable Development Goals, circular economy and green manufacturing were translated into experiences through which users could move from understanding concepts to touching materials and discussing their own choices.

Third, to avoid one-way corporate communication and encourage meaningful participation, T2M developed a model combining curation, co-creation, education and community engagement. WonderFac opened to the public on April 25, 2025. Working with art institutions and more than 40 artist groups, it generated over 60 works within the existing industrial setting. The project also delivered performances, creative workshops, artist salons, T2M lectures, roundtable discussions, study visits, public classes, swap events and environmental markets. More than 20 schools, universities and public-education organizations have participated, including exchanges with Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Hong Kong Baptist University and Beijing University of Chemical Technology.

Fourth, to provide an ongoing organizational platform for low-carbon action, T2M worked under the guidance of the Chancheng Branch of the Foshan Municipal Ecology and Environment Bureau and partnered with the Green Walker Low-Carbon Promotion Center to establish Foshan’s first Climate Change Education Volunteer Service Station. Forty-five university student volunteers participated as “low-carbon interpreters,” using climate classes, interactive challenges and other formats to connect industrial transformation with everyday climate action.

Through these measures, the project developed a collaborative model in which the company provides space and professional resources, public authorities offer guidance, social organizations support operations, and universities and the public participate in implementation. The Sustainable Materials Library serves as the project’s core content, while exhibitions, forums, study programs and volunteer services provide recurring formats for engagement.

项目实施

项目由东鹏控股作为企业支持，DP LAB东鹏创新实验室负责策划运营，东鹏新材提供绿色材料、固废转化技术及场景化应用支持，并联合艺术家、设计师、品牌、高校、社会组织及属地生态环境部门共同推进。

第一，针对旧厂房闲置及拆除重建可能造成的资源浪费，项目于2023年10月启动，坚持“不推倒重建”的更新原则，保留原有工业结构和空间记忆，采用修复再利用与适度介入方式，利用厂房原有物件、旧材料及工业构件参与空间搭建；同时将可持续材料实验室、艺术展览、生活美学、文化商业和公共活动嵌入既有建筑，使旧生产空间转化为可持续城市共创平台。

第二，针对绿色低碳理念专业、抽象、公众理解门槛高的问题，项目以“材料可阅读、可触摸、可应用”为方法，建设可持续材料图书馆、“新矿山计划”和材料美学实验室。2025年8月启动的第二季展览联动30余个国内外品牌，收录300余种可持续材料，集中展示500余项再生材料样板及固废转化成果，涵盖废瓷、钢渣、粉煤灰、矿山余料等资源再生路径，并以影像、样板、产品、装置和公教展板讲解ESG、SDGs、循环经济及绿色制造，让使用者从“看懂理念”进一步走向“体验材料、讨论选择”。

第三，针对企业展示空间容易形成单向传播、公众参与不足的问题，项目建立“策展＋共创＋教育＋社群”的参与机制。2025年4月，“玩厰WonderFac”面向公众开放，联合艺术机构及40余组艺术家驻场创作，形成60余组作品；持续开展艺术表演、工坊、沙龙、T2M大讲堂、圆桌论坛、研学公开课、以物换物、环保市集等活动。项目累计接待中小学、高校及社会公教机构20余家，并与广州美术学院、香港理工大学、香港浸会大学、北京化工大学等开展研学交流。

第四，针对低碳行动缺少持续组织载体的问题，项目在佛山市生态环境局禅城分局指导下，与绿行者低碳促进中心共建佛山全市首个气候变化教育志愿服务站，组织45名大学生志愿者通过气候课堂、盲盒挑战等形式担任“低碳转译者”。项目逐步形成由企业提供空间与专业资源、政府部门指导、社会组织运营协作、高校和公众共同参与的协同机制，并以可持续材料图书馆为核心内容，以主题展览、论坛、研学和志愿服务为持续运营载体。

Project Outcome

The project transformed an underused former factory into a space combining sustainable materials research, public education and urban co-creation. Rather than replacing the site through demolition and new construction, the renewal retained the industrial structure and reused original objects, recycled materials and circular installations in exhibition and public-use settings. T2M has connected more than 30 domestic and international brands, catalogued over 300 sustainable materials, and displayed more than 500 recycled-material samples and waste-conversion outcomes, turning circular-resource technologies into experiences that users can touch, compare and discuss.

Its principal innovation is an integrated model combining adaptive reuse of industrial space, a green materials database, interpretation through art and design, and user participation. During the opening season, more than 40 artist groups created over 60 works. The project also delivered more than 20 performances, over 20 workshops and artist exchanges, more than 10 professional forums, and over 20 local community activities. More than 20 schools, universities and public-education organizations participated in study and learning programs, while 45 university student volunteers joined climate education activities.

T2M was not designed as a one-off exhibition. It has developed an operating framework led by DP LAB, with the Sustainable Materials Library as its core content and thematic exhibitions, learning programs, forums and volunteer services as recurring formats. Its relatively low-intensity renovation approach, modular content system and multi-stakeholder collaboration model can be adapted to former factories, corporate showrooms, research facilities and other enterprise-operated spaces, giving it strong potential for replication.

成果亮点

项目实现了从“退出生产功能的旧厂房”到“绿色材料研究、公众教育与城市共创空间”的功能转变。空间更新坚持保留工业结构和修复再利用，避免以大拆大建替代更新，并将原有物件、再生材料与可循环装置融入展示和公共使用场景。内容建设方面，T2M二场已联动30余个国内外品牌，收录300余种可持续材料，展示500余项再生材料样板及固废转化成果，使固废循环从技术概念转化为可触摸、可比较、可讨论的公众体验。

项目的核心创新在于形成“旧空间再利用＋绿色材料数据库＋艺术设计转译＋公众行为参与”的复合模式。开馆季联合40余组艺术家落地60余组作品；围绕艺术、材料、设计、气候与城市议题开展20余场艺术表演、20余场工坊及交流沙龙、10余场专业论坛和20余场在地社群活动，接待中小学、高校及社会公教机构20余家，并组织45名大学生志愿者参与气候教育。

项目不是一次性展览，而是以DP LAB为统筹主体、可持续材料图书馆为核心内容、主题策展与研学志愿服务为运营载体，持续链接政府、企业、高校、社会组织和公众。其低改造强度、跨主体共建及内容模块化方式，适用于制造企业旧厂房、展厅和研发空间的绿色更新，具有较强复制价值。
