About Sino German Creative Park Four Museum

Sino German Creative Park Four ist ein Museum und Zentrum für Kulturaustausch in Qingdao, China. Das Gebäude steht an einem Nordhang, dem Haupteingang des Parks zugewandt, mit einer Flusslandschaft im Süden. Ein Y-förmiger Grundriss verleiht dem Bau drei Fassaden aus raumhohen Glasvorhangwänden, die jeweils zu einem anderen Landschaftsbereich des Parks ausgerichtet sind. Die drei Spitzen der Y-Form sind leicht angehoben und bilden eine skulpturale Silhouette. Sichtbeton prägt das Innere und nimmt Bezug auf die äußere Ziegelvorhangfassade. Der Entwurf verbessert zudem das Mikroklima und speichert Regenwasser.

Unique Properties: Located in the Sino-German D-Zone Creative Park in Qingdao, China, the project serves as a museum and the Sino-German cultural exchange center, contributing to the Sino-German communication. The entire park is based on the creative design which returns to nature, creating a green, waterfront, and artistic space.
Dimensions & Packaging: This building stands on the north slope of the Sino-German D-Zone Creative Park, facing the main entrance of the park and having river landscape in the south. The design needs to solve how to make an iconic building in the park and effectively utilize the rich natural resources of the park. Through sculptural methods, the architectural form adopted a Y-shaped layout. The three facades of Y adopt floor-to-ceiling glass curtain walls to face different landscape centers in the park. What's more, the three tops of the Y shape is slightly raised to enhance its iconic and sculptural characteristics.

Production Technology: Fair-faced concrete is the main material for the interior space, which echoes to the outdoor brick curtain wall. It is a veritable eco-friendly concrete: the concrete structure does not need decoration, so chemical products such as coatings and finishes are omitted; the fair-faced concrete structure is formed at one time without chipping repairs or plastering, reducing a plenty of construction wastes and protecting the environment.
Design Challenge: Taken into account the three-sided upturned shape of the building, the interior is designed to be naturally flowing down on three sides, converging in the central pillar. There is no any other pillars in the rest of the building, which has achieved a transparent and open indoor space effect. At the same time, in order to accurately set the shape of the irregular pillar in the hall, it is parameterized to facilitate construction. The architects focused on the coordination between the small environment around the building and the context of the park, so that the building can truly be integrated into the park.
Research: Design is not to create landscape, but to integrate design into nature and add more natural vitality to nature. The project has improved the microclimate and stored rainwater, thus, created a good ecological environment.
Inspiration: With the mix of evergreen and deciduous trees, it creates an ideal display and working environment. In the heart of the site, it is the central area, which is not only the focal point of vision, but also provides people with a place to relax. The project has improved the microclimate and stored rainwater, thus, created a good ecological environment.
Project Duration: The project started in October 2015 and finished in July 2019 in Qingdao, China.
Operation Flow: Using topographical simulations, different natural topography is shaped according to the landform characteristics of each state. The design emphasizes the continuity of ecology by blending forests in different terrains to form a natural three-dimensional garden. Through the design techniques of natural landscape and the combination of art and the shape of the earth, the design makes the topography of the whole park full of texture changes, enhances the overall artistry of the park, and highlights the minimalist design concept.
