The Design

About Zhuzhou Civic Center Bâtiment public

Le Centre civique de Zhuzhou est un bâtiment public qui réunit des services de proximité, des services d'accompagnement à l'entrepreneuriat et des services de loisirs destinés aux citoyens. L'édifice se compose de six modules disposés autour d'une vallée verte centrale, tandis qu'un cheminement piéton traverse le site pour relier les parcs nord et sud. Des technologies passives d'économie d'énergie sont mises en œuvre dans l'ensemble du projet : isolation des planchers, des murs, des portes et des fenêtres, système de ventilation double flux, énergies solaire et géothermique, toiture végétalisée et brise-soleil. La consommation énergétique représente environ un sixième à un dixième de celle de bâtiments comparables.

Unique Properties: Zhuzhou Civic Center is in response to a key project constructed by the government for the convenience of the public. It is a comprehensive citizen service center integrating “convenience service, entrepreneurship service and leisure service” as a whole. It is completely built with passive energy-saving technology and the largest single passive public building in the world at present.
Dimensions & Packaging: Land Area: 15822.85 Square Meters.
The construction area covers 62334 square meters, including 39976 square meters office area and 7000 square meters commercial area.
Tags: Passive Energy-Saving, Renewable resource, Public Building
Production Technology: The project uses the insulation of the ground, walls, doors and windows, fresh air system, and renewable energy such as solar and geothermal to achieve constant temperature, constant humidity, oxygen, cleanness and tranquility in the four seasons, instead of active heating and air conditioning. Green roof and sunshade reduce impact on future operating cost, the resource consumption of Civic Center is 1/6 to 1/10 of similar buildings.
Design Challenge: Office buildings in the Yangtze River Basin in China are characterized by high resources consumption, low indoor comfort and easy to dewy and moldy. The energy consumption of the project is 1 / 6 to 1 / 10 of that of similar buildings. The design of the project is based on the principle of "existing cost oriented low energy consumption maximization", which comprehensively considers the whole life cycle of the building. Naturally, the construction and future operating costs will be carefully calculated. The solar panels on the roof provide a continuous supply for the whole building.The project uses high-performance "three glass two cavity" insulation glass and wooden keel composed of passive curtain wall and window.
Research: The volume of the building is divided into six modules, and the spatial relationship is compact and modest around the Central Green Valley layout. It continues the green axis through thinking of urban design, connecting the north and south water systems, and the slow walking path passes through the center of the building, and serves as a link to organize the double first floor building space. The building is designed according to the terrain elevation difference, and the space is open to the city and park in four directions, which is the public space of the building And supporting facilities are shared with the park.Strictly control the height of the building, so that the building seems to grow out of the green forest.
Inspiration: It is designed according to topographic elevation and designer creates a double-first floor in special. Six pleasant floating islands surrounding central activity square provide an outdoor communication place with the advantage of central park for makers. Due to the differences in internal functions and urban environment, the facade styles of it are slightly different. Its flexible and simple lines break the dull image of municipal buildings in the past, making them friendly, open and flexible.
Project Duration: The project started in 2014 in Zhuzhou, Hunan, China and finished in Dec 2019 in Zhuzhou, Hunan, China
Operation Flow: The project integrates the original "one center, multiple sub centers" scattered office space in the urban area, realizes "no approval outside the center", sets up seven comprehensive processing areas and three supporting service areas, 44 units and more than 660 staff enter at the same time, handles 771 items of administrative approval and public services, and achieves the government affairs service "at most once".
