About Yinchuan Jianfa Modern City Centre Comercial

Yinchuan Jianfa Modern City és una renovació d'un centre comercial a Yinchuan, Xina. El projecte actualitza un edifici comercial que ha estat en funcionament durant deu anys, seguint el concepte de regeneració urbana. La façana està formada per plaques d'alumini amb forma hiperboloide, inspirada en formes piramidals modelades pel vent i la sorra. S'utilitza vidre de baixa emissivitat per millorar l'eficiència energètica. Un sistema de façana vertical segueix el ritme de l'estructura original. Un pati interior, un lluernari i un jardí a la coberta guien el flux de vianants des del carrer principal fins al nivell superior.

Production Technology
Low emissivity glass is applied in the project as the primary glass material to increase the energy efficiency of the design. In order to keep the original structure, it has been designed the vertical facade system to echo the vertical rhythm of the structure. 3D model design was applied and finally made the shape of the building, a hyperboloid effect with aluminum plates. Although it uses economical materials, it is still challenging.
Design Challenge
Designs organized different programs with the internal and external circulation of the building so that the new design can provide a better shopping experiment. The newly added daylighting roof is partially connected with the existing tower to solve drainage and later maintenance problems. The project is an extensive renovation that heavily depends on the existing structure and condition. Thus, the current situation is critical. Any small mistakes would affect the entire facade design.
Research
Starting from the concept of Urban Regeneration, the site was analyzed from different view angles, pedestrian flow, and behaviors of shoppers. It is essential to understand the above because the new design must enhance the aesthetic of the building and the experience provided to all people. Thus, the exterior on how to increase attraction from the street to create a modern and future yet elegant interior becomes the motives during the whole design process.
Inspiration
The design concept of Urban Regeneration originates from the desire of owner that the regenerated modern city will become a better city life leader. Innovation is inseparable from inheritance. The design drew inspiration from the shape of Oriental Pyramid, which has been baptized by wind and sand for thousands of years. It has become a strong design language for architecture facade and interior space.
Project Duration
The project started from July 2020 and it is scheduled to be completed in September 2021. It locates at Yinchuan City of China.
Operation Flow
The building is close to the main road, so an eye catching facade helps the building stand out. The flow of the pedestrian is carefully studied and directed from the main street. The newly designed circulation of the courtyard leads to pedestrian flow from the bottom to the roof garden. Walking under the skylight, together with lighting effects on it as well as the facade, creates a fascinating experience for shoppers.
