About Tiangang Art Center Galeria

Tiangang Arte Zentroa Baodingen berritutako eraikin bat da, arte galeriak, hotel bat eta jatetxe zerbitzuak hartzen dituena. Proiektuak 2586,95 metro koadro hartzen ditu eta erabili gabe geratu zen jatorrizko hormigoizko egitura erdi-zirkular bat berrerabiltzen du. Gorputz nagusia pintura pikortsu zuriz estalita dago kolorearen garbitasuna mantentzeko, forma geometriko garbiari eguzki-argia jasotzen duen objektu handi baten itxura emanez. Argizulo kurbatu batek eguneko argi uniformea zabaltzen du espazio nagusietan zehar, egunean zehar aldatzen diren argi-itzalak sortuz. Zentroa artisten eta arte ekitaldien topagune gisa aritzen da.

The Recognition

About the Urrezko Saria A' Design Award

Tiangang Art Center Galeria Urrezko Saria A' Design Award irabazlea da, lehen mailako, zoragarriak eta nabarmenak diren diseinuei ematen zaien aitorpen izugarri prestijiotsua. Urre-mailako irabazleak berrikuntzaz beteriko, ikuspegi handiko eta distiraz liluragarriak diren sorkuntzak dira, beren diseinatzaileen genioa, jakituria eta trebetasuna islatzen dutenak. Tiangang Art Center Galeria oso goraipatua, joera-markatzailea eta monumentala den asmakizuna izatea espero da, balio aurrekaririk gabea eskaintzen duena. Urrezko Saria A' Design Award irabazi duen diseinu hau proiektu ikusgarri eta errespetatua da, artearen, zientziaren, diseinuaren eta teknologiaren mugak oso onuragarriro zabaltzen dituena. Tiangang Art Center Galeria desira-sentimendu biziak sortzen dituen, grina pizten duen, sormena bultzatzen duen eta liluratzen gaituen lana da.

Production Technology
The main body of the building is coated with white granular paint to maintain a purity of color - and with its clean geometric form and absence of linear directionality, it becomes a kind of enormous sunlight-catching object.
Design Challenge
The original semi-circular concrete frame structure sits amongst the mountains and rivers in the area, facing Tiangang Village. The disorderly initial condition of the site and fractured structure evoked a village in a predicament of forced stagnation.
Research
The use of natural materials is essential in a space evoking an idyllic, pastoral atmosphere and light itself is also a kind of natural material. The building's curved skylight provides even illumination throughout the main spaces, generating rich light and shadow effects throughout the day, lending the building a kind of sundial effect, enacting an easy embrace of the passage of time.
Inspiration
Behind the "abandoned architecture" is the first review of the building and site by the village cadres during the "initial revitalization". SYN Architects took this as a pre-existing condition, analyzing it fully in order to comprehend the site and its situation to better upgrade its functioning.
Project Duration
The project started in February 2020 in Baoding and finished in April 2021 in Baoding.
Operation Flow
The building's sculptural presence is combined with nearby rice fields and villages, establishing a strong visceral connection between the building and the natural environment, enabling it to leverage its surroundings to amplify the aesthetic tension between the two entities.
