I. Enchanted Magic Realm: The Guardian of the Dragon's Magical Treasures

Creative Concept: The design revolves around the idea of a "magical dragon guarding mysterious treasures", aiming to build a space filled with a magical atmosphere. The blue - purple metal dragon serves as the core of magical energy, surrounded by mysterious elements. It makes people feel as if they have stepped into an ancient magical world, where every detail tells a fantasy story.


Space Layout and Core Display Area Creation


  • Base Deep Decoration: A 1.5m×1.5m black velvet cloth is used as the base. The edges of the cloth are crafted into natural folds to simulate a dragon's lair. High - density foam boards are cut and carved into "rock" shapes, painted with gray acrylic paint to cover the support rods. Small warm, yellow LED buried lights are inserted into the gaps of the "rocks" to mimic the faint glow of magic.
  • Enhancing Dragon's Details: Silver acrylic is used to outline the edges of the dragon scales, enhancing the three - dimensional effect. The blue - purple areas of the wings are painted with transparent fluorescent paint. When combined with an ultraviolet light, it creates a dreamy fluorescent effect at night.


Wall and Surrounding Decoration Expansion


  • Wall Theme Creation: A large 100cm×150cm "Magic Starry Sky" painting is hung on the wall, mainly in deep purple and dark blue, with magical runes and constellations as accents. Under the painting, there is a wooden shelf where transparent glass bottles filled with colorful "magic sand", resin magic wands, and crystal balls are placed.
  • Floor Scene Building: 7 - 10 resin "dragon eggs" are placed around the base. The surfaces of the eggs are cracked and embedded with button-battery LED lights to simulate the hatching state. The floor is covered with a dark brown carpet, and artificial moss is pasted in some areas.


Lighting System Design


  • Main Lighting: Narrow - edged deep - cup recessed downlights with a color rendering index of at least 95 are installed directly above the dragon model. With a 15° beam angle, they precisely illuminate the dragon's head and scale details, presenting a cold metallic luster at a color temperature of 4000K. These downlights have multiple anti - glare designs, such as a honeycomb mesh and a deep-cup structure, to avoid direct glare and ensure a good viewing experience.
  • Ambient Lighting: Flexible LED strips in 2700K warm yellow are hidden along the edge of the base to simulate the faint magic light. They are paired with a dimmable power supply to achieve a breathing light effect. Small buried lights in 3000K warm light are inserted into the "rock" gaps and project upwards to enhance the Layering.
  • Special Effects Lighting: An ultraviolet light is used to activate the fluorescent coating on the blue - purple areas of the dragon's wings, creating a ghostly fluorescent effect at night.

II. Cybernetic Mechanical Space: A High-Tech Dragon's Domain

Creative Concept: This design combines the cyberpunk style, presenting the dragon model as a mechanical life form. Through elements such as neon lights and metal, it showcases a scene where dragons and technology coexist in the future world.


Upgrading Display Devices


  • Custom Floating Base: A transparent acrylic base with a diameter of 40cm and a thickness of 12mm is created. RGB color - changing LED strips are pasted on the bottom to give the illusion that the dragon is "floating".
  • Mechanical Modification of the Dragon: Micro reflective stickers or metal rivets are pasted on the dragon's joints and skeleton. The edges of the wings are wrapped with silver metal wires to simulate circuit connections.


Wall and Environmental Decoration


  • Wall Visual Design: Purple-blue gradient neon light strips are used to outline the dragon's outline. They are paired with a 1.2m×1.2m metal mesh board, on which mechanical parts such as hard disks and gears are hung.
  • Function Area Arrangement: A transparent display cabinet is placed nearby, displaying mechanical eyeballs and transparent containers filled with electronic components. Cold - light LED strips are installed inside the cabinet.


Lighting Design


  • Main Lighting: Magnetic track spotlights with adjustable color temperature from 2700K to 6500K are arranged along the dragon's body. Cold white light at 6500K emphasizes the mechanical details, while the warm purple filter mode creates a sci-fi atmosphere. These spotlights can be vertically adjusted by 90°, flexibly covering the dragon's wings and joints.
  • Dynamic Light Effects: RGB LED strips are built into the transparent acrylic base. Through an intelligent controller, they can achieve dynamic modes such as flowing light and running lights, interacting with the micro reflective stickers on the dragon's body. The neon light strips on the wall that outline the dragon's shape are connected to a sound - controlled module and change colors according to the music rhythm.
  • Projection Special Effects: A micro-projector is hidden inside the support. It projects dynamic images such as data streams and cyber cities, creating a visual impact that combines reality and virtuality with the dragon model.

III. Natural Habitat: The Dragon's Magical Wilderness Home

Creative Concept: This design imitates the natural environment where dragons live, combining elements such as plants and rocks to show the harmonious coexistence of nature and magic.


Base Landscaping Project


  • Building a Cliff Scene:
    1. Foam boards are cut into "cliff" shapes, carved with textures, and painted with gray - green and brown acrylic paint.
    2. Artificial moss (brand: Shengjie) is pasted, and vines with dead leaves are wrapped around the support rods.
    3. In rough ceramic pots, succulent plants such as Aeonium arboreum and Kalanchoe thyrsiflora are placed on the cliff platform.
  • Extending the Ground Environment: A dark brown carpet is laid on the floor. Silver cardboard "dragon scales" painted with matte paint are scattered around, and small artificial volcanic stones are placed.


Background and Atmosphere Creation


  • Background Setup: A large 1.8m×2.4m forest photography poster featuring a deep canyon or forest scene is hung on the wall.
  • Sound Atmosphere: A Bluetooth speaker is placed to play natural sounds such as wind and bird calls, as well as dragon roar sounds downloaded from a sound library.


Lighting Design


  • Main Lighting: COB light source downlights with a color temperature of 4000K are selected. They evenly illuminate the scene, and with a color rendering index of at least 95, they can restore the true colors of the plants. These downlights have an anti - glare design to avoid destroying the natural atmosphere.
  • Environmental Lighting: Low-power LED strips in 3000K warm light are wrapped around the vines to simulate the dappled light in the forest. Buried lights are placed at the bottom of the "cliff" and project upwards to outline the dragon's body. At night, the light is switched to cold white at 5000K to simulate moonlight, and the natural sounds are combined to enhance the immersive feeling.
  • Hidden Lighting: Small 2700K LED beads are embedded under the dragon's claws to form a faint "dragon eye" light, adding a sense of spirituality.

IV. Modern Art Display: The Dragon Sculpture in Minimalist Aesthetics

Creative Concept: This design highlights the artistic attributes of the dragon model in a minimalist style. Through a simple layout and lighting, it shows the beauty of modern art.


Space Layout and Display Design


  • Main Display: The dragon model is placed on top of a white minimalist cabinet. Inside the cabinet, black partitions hold spherical silver ornaments with a diameter of 15cm and transparent acrylic display boxes for showing parts or Ornaments.
  • Auxiliary Decoration: A geometric-shaped metal side table is placed nearby, and an abstract art sculpture is placed on the table, echoing the lines of the dragon model.


Lighting and Color Matching


  • Main Lighting: Narrow - edged deep - cup spotlights with a color temperature of 4000K are embedded in the ceiling. They are angled at 45° from the side - top to illuminate the dragon's body. With a 24° beam angle, they form a clear "hillock" light spot, highlighting the metallic texture.
  • Auxiliary Lighting: LED strips in 4000K are hidden along the edges of the white cabinet's shelves,  illuminating the display ornaments and echoing the main light on the dragon. A dimmable floor lamp with a color temperature range of 2700K to 4000K is placed on the side to fill the dark areas and maintain a warm atmosphere in the space.
  • Light and Shadow Contrast: The background wall is made of matte materials to reduce the interference of reflected light and strengthen the dragon model as the visual focus. The walls are painted with light gray latex paint, and the floor is covered with light wooden flooring. The neutral color tones set off the dragon's blue-purple and metallic colors.

V. Dynamic Interactive Theater: An Interactive Dragon Experience Space

Creative Concept: Through dynamic effects and interactive designs, this design makes the dragon model "come alive" and become the core of interaction in the space.


Dynamic Effect Transformation


  • Dragon's Mouth "Fire - Spitting" Effect: A warm, yellow button-battery LED light string is inserted into the dragon's mouth. The front end is covered with a transparent hose painted orange, and the battery box is hidden inside the base.
  • Wing Micro - Movement Device: Micro servo motors are installed at the dragon's wing joints. Through Arduino programming, the wings can flap, accompanied by the sound of gear transmission.


Interactive System Construction


  • Induction Trigger System: A HC - SR501 human body induction module is installed. It is connected to the base's LED strips and a dragon roar sound player. When someone approaches, it triggers the change of light colors and the playback of sounds.
  • Mobile APP Linkage: Smart hardware such as an ESP8266 module is connected. An APP is developed to control the lights and sounds. Preset "combat mode" and "sleep mode" can be switched with one click.


Lighting and Color Matching


  • Basic Lighting: Smart downlights with a color temperature of 4000K are controlled by the human body induction module to adjust the brightness automatically when someone approaches or leaves.
  • Interactive Special Effects: The warm - yellow LED light string inside the dragon's mouth brightens up simultaneously with the "fire-spitting" action. The base's LED strips are linked with the induction module. When someone approaches, the light changes from blue to red (the dragon "awakens"), and when they leave, it gradually dims (the dragon "sleeps").
  • Dynamic Lighting: Micro LED beads at the dragon's wing joints flash synchronously with the flapping of the wings. The color can be customized through the APP, such as red for combat mode and blue for sleep mode, enhancing the visual impact.
