Production Technology
To ensure the building's transparency, the ground floor uses high-transmittance low-emissivity glass, combined with custom deep white glass and dark gray anodized aluminum panels. This adds richness to the building's facade, making the overall visual effect appear light and as if floating in mid-air from a distance.
Design Challenge
Challenge: Designing a transparent, lightweight glass building without compromising structural strength.

Solution:

High-Performance Glass: Use Low-E glass for both transparency and safety.
Hidden Structure: Embed load-bearing structures or use slim steel frames for a minimal look.
Glass Curtain Walls: Employ non-load-bearing glass walls for an exterior that balances clarity
Research
The integrated design creates a multifunctional community center that merges indoor and outdoor spaces, using glass to foster light and connectivity, blending activities and landscapes for a cohesive, open yet private setting.

This design not only allows residents to enjoy natural light and beautiful scenery but also fosters neighborhood interaction, strengthening community cohesion.
Inspiration
Concept: Crystal
Inspired by "crystal," the goal is to create a light, transparent glass structure, aiming to break away from the closed-off feel of traditional buildings. Utilizing the refractive qualities of crystal to design multifaceted surfaces, the concept enhances the transparency and openness of the space, showcasing the lively activities of people within the glass architecture, and fostering a bustling, harmonious atmosphere.
Project Duration
The project started its design phase in Shanghai, China, in October 2022 and was completed in Qingdao, Shandong Province, China, in June 2023.
Operation Flow
Imagine a community center crafted from transparent glass, inspired by the bright and transparent qualities of crystal. It aims to break down the sense of enclosure in architecture through open and vibrant spaces.

Facilities include a tea house, a shared library bar, a sunlit swimming pool, among others, fostering healthy living and strengthening community connections.

The design offers a versatile activity center that strengthens both internal and external connections.
