Spatial
Orientation
In the original site, 3 massifs stand
opposite to each other, and the valley
between them extends nearby.Inspired by
the natural relationship of nature,the city
and culture.The mass is cut according to
the tendency of the valley. And this helps
to connect several public spaces. The
landscape in the western part of the site
will flow into the building through the
platform on the 2nd floor. This platform
connects 3 masses and plays the role as
City Parlor.

Materials
The way that the building forms
leads to different texture on the
inner and outer surface. The
outer surface of the main
building is draped with glass
curtain wall and grey grilles
which help against the west
sunburn. The horizontal line that
formed by the orderly metal
plates offers a plain and modern
appearance.

Interiors
And it also highlights the
variation of interior space. When
it comes to the ‘inner surface’,
glasses that combined with metal
plates and aluminum mesh in
different triangle planes create a
Chinese traditional pattern called
ice crack. Such texture also make
the ‘inner surface’ an eye-
catching ‘crystal’.
We separate the Cultural and Art Center into three
parts: main space, auxiliary space and transportation
space. All these spaces are set around a public
platform according to the original terrain. The theater
is in the east part of the building, while conference
center, cultural center and other functions are located
in the west. Visitors enter different venues from the
platform, and service rooms connect several volumes
together under this platform.
