Unique Properties
Within limited transformation scope and considering sensible cost control, we removed the original outer skin of the building and redesigned the facade of the building on the west side with a wind curtain wall. The large-scale canopy does not only meet the requirements of the entrance function, but also completes the wind curtain wall; the east side of the building adopts a perforated aluminum curtain wall to enrich the light and shadow interplay of the building facade.
Dimensions & Packaging
Project area: 3,780 sqm
Main materials: aluminum, steel, glass

Production Technology
The environment of the base is inseparable from the building. However, the layout of the two parts of the building make the middle pass pathway rather gloomy and narrow. Therefore, we chose a stainless steel with a certain degree of reflectivity as the surface material of the wind curtain wall.
Main materials: aluminum, steel, glass
Design Challenge
The challenge of the transformation turned out to be how to unify the new content with the current situation; and in addition to consider how to create a main entrance area in a limited space for display. What defines a positive coexistence between architecture and the environment? Facing what is seemingly of contradictive nature, "adapting to times-adapting to local conditions" might just be the key to harmonious coexistence with the environment.
Research
The project building is located at the main entrance of the Qin Lake Scenic Area. While the original building's shape of polyline is unique and expressive, the facade shape is quite rigid and integrates rather stiffly with the rest of the architecture. The aim is to improve the quality of the building and to match the needs of the current building space, while transforming the building and giving it a new life as an exhibition hall in the urban city.
