About Ningbo Urban Construction Archives Foirgneamh Cartlainne

Is foirgneamh cartlainne é Cartlann Fhoirgníochta Uirbí Ningbo atá suite i gCathair Ningbo, Cúige Zhejiang, an tSín. Léiríonn an dearadh stair na cathrach mar stair thógála. Tuigtear foirgnimh mar chomhthionóil de bhloic, agus dá bhrí sin tá an chartlann comhdhéanta de bhloic charnaithe a chomhcheanglaíonn airíonna spáis agus ábhair le chéile. Tá na bloic grúpáilte ina dtrí chineál: trédhearcach, soladach agus speisialta. Tá achar an láithreáin 6,567 méadar cearnach, le 17,190 méadar cearnach d'achar urláir ar aon leibhéal déag os cionn na talún agus 6,405 méadar cearnach ar dhá leibhéal faoi bhun na talún.

Design Challenge
Archives, which is regarded as an important culture carrier of collecting and preserving history, has abundant historical and cultural significance. Ningbo Urban Development Archives is mainly used to collecting developing history of this city, that it is called “Fortification History”. So, the start of design in this project is how to represent the concepts about fortification.
Inspiration
City is composed by buildings, and buildings are constructed from different building blocks, which have special space and material attributes; hence, the history of city construction can be understood as history of fortification, and Ningbo Urban Development Archives is a collector of this history of fortification indeed. Base on the understanding of the city construction, we superimpose the two properties of 'space' and 'material' to support the concept of 'Building Blocks'.
