About Jinglan Bay Art Sant Vant

Jinglan Bay Art se yon enteryè sant vant ki sitiye nan Liuzhou, yon zòn montay ak dlo k ap koule an zigzag. Enteryè a kouvri 1705 mèt kare epi li gen zòn resepsyon, vant, ekspozisyon, medya dijital ak VIP. Olye pou yo kopye peyizaj la atravè fòm, yo itilize limyè ak lonbraj pou sijere gwo mòn ak dlo pwofon. Terrazzo nwa a poli jiskaske li vin tankou yon miwa, kidonk peyizaj deyò a ak mouvman vizitè yo reflete ladan l. Wòch brit nan antre a kreye pwofondè yon vale. Lòt materyèl yo gen ladan mab travay ak sizo, penti mineral, bwa nwa ak bwadchèn.

Unique Properties: The project is located in Liuzhou, a mountainous area with winding waters. Instead of simulating the landscape with shapes, we think it would be better to use light and shadow to create high mountains and deep water. The material facade is used to recreate the mental transitions of entering a deep forest, and to incorporate nature into the interior gestures.

Production Technology: In addition to abstracting nature through volumetric forms, we also attempt to bring nature indoors from a different perspective. By polishing black terrazzo to a mirror-like finish, we create a deep and tranquil ambiance that constantly reflects the seasonal scenery and human movement outside the windows. Viewing from different heights within the space resembles the ever-changing landscapes experienced while hiking or walking in the mountains.
Design Challenge: By inviting you to visit the landscape narrated by the architecture, and experience the white space and depth of the design grid, we hope that this site is like spreading a multi-view ink painting of a landscape, which synthesizes philosophy and poetry, and transcends the perception of the surface landscape to facilitate a pure feeling of the change in status and the state of mind fit.
Research: Liuzhou is famous for its wonderful stones, which include mountain stones, water stones, earth stones, cave stones, and rocks. Each of which has its own beauty. Taking this as our inspiration, we built the entrance with raw stones to create the depth of a valley. The deep cut stone surface of the counter is not only used as the facade of the building but also as a display of the mountain wall, transforming the natural stone gestures into an emotional turn when experiencing nature.
Inspiration: The focus of the landscape in paintings is expressions, but how does architecture become a narrative tool to record nature? We imagine that walking through the interior of the building is like a mountain climbing practice, passing through a tunnel covered by branches and leaves with the sky hidden behind boulders or looking up at the mountain peaks under the cliff, feeling the personal transformation of the mind and the tranquility of not clinging to material things.
Project Duration: The project started in November 2021 and finished in July 2022, and was exhibited in Liuzhou in August 2022.
Operation Flow: Giving up persistence, we withdraw ourselves from the environment to maintain the clarity of non-stagnation. Therefore, we do not simulate a figurative landscape, but reproduce the experience of people wandering in the mountains through the multi-directional views of people zigzagging, climbing, looking up, or looking down between structures, and even the real and imaginary contours of reflections on the floor.
