About Samaranch Memorial Музей

Мемориалът „Самаранч" е музей, построен в памет на Самаранч и за представяне на олимпийския дух. Дизайнът е вдъхновен от петте олимпийски кръга. Два пресичащи се кръга образуват основната сграда, докато останалите три кръга се превръщат във вкопани вътрешни дворове, които побират допълнителни спортни пространства. Формата, наподобяваща знака за безкрайност, съдържа рампова примка, която свързва входа, изложбените зони, покривните градини и обслужващите функции в една последователност. Мемориалът включва също лекционна зала, зала за временни изложби и зимна градина. Дневната светлина е проучена в детайли, за да се намали потреблението на енергия.

Production Technology: Considering land form and project features, we present a theme park with multi dimension experiences. We put much effort on landmark building design and public space design and create an experience space. Functional space is put in place according to exhibition sequence. Roof garden has become a nature transition between interior and external space. Landscape and architecture are integration of traditional Chinese and western style with different space feelings every step you are forward.
Design Challenge: The biggest challenge is how to reduce energy consumption. At the beginning of the design, we decided to use as much natural light as possible for design. We calculated the position and intensity of sunlight entering the courtyard and indoor windows, and performed simulation experiments on thermal load, glass surface orientation and position to obtain the most economical and efficient solution, which will save more than 84% of energy, and also makes temperature and lighting more suitable.
Research: In order to balance his own present mind and has a need for commemorating time event and people passed to understand his own present and future condition, Challenge is how to avoid the exhibit and content itself not becoming outdated and rather constantly renewing the perspective to our ever changing present. In other words, how to extend a legacy of the modern Olympics only into a life celebrating institution as Olympics.
Inspiration: The original intention is to build a green building that commemorates Mr. Samaranch, inherits the Olympic spirit, expresses sports and sustainable. It was transformed through the five Olympic rings: the main building presents two intersecting circles, and the other three circles transform into a sunken courtyard. The "8" shape commemorates the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. The "S" shape stands for "Samaranch"; the third is that the shape symbolizes Infinity and eternity.
Project Duration: The project started in 2011 in Tianjin and finished in 2013 in Tianjin, China
Operation Flow: The building should grow with people and the environment. The supporting commercial buildings are integrated into the landscape to protect the overall natural landscape and form a large and varied experience space. In addition to showing the collection of Mr. Samaranch's life, the memorial also has a lecture hall, temporary exhibition hall, winter garden, etc., which can be used to hold various conferences, seminars, exhibitions and other activities.
