The Design

About Snail Bay 都市展示ホール

スネイルベイは、中国・昆明にある都市展示ホールであり、既存建築の改修・再利用によって生まれた。ホールは6,800平方メートルの規模を有し、スネイルベイ地区の将来的な発展像を提示している。外壁を撤去する一方で、既存の構造体と空間構成は保存された。大きなガラスカーテンウォールが自然景観に向かって開かれ、内部からの眺望を広げている。湖の水を建物内へ引き込み、整然とした形状の水盤が湖面と視覚的に重なり合う。回廊が屋内空間と屋外空間をつないでいる。

Production Technology
Space is the essence of architecture. The designers’ strategy is to remove the external wall, dig its internal spatial memory and value, and endow it with proper temperament, while preserving its structure and spatial pattern. Under the requisite of maintaining the architecture function, a large area glass curtain wall is used on the side facing the natural landscape, which makes the indoor space vision completely open.
