About Gushu Pompjeesstatioun

Den Design benotzt verschidde Approche wéi Materialkontrast, Blockafügung a Faltpanelkombinatiounen fir eng integréiert a kompakt Gebaiform ze visualiséieren an d'Relatioun tëschent architectonescher Funktioun a Form auszedrécken. Zousätzlech ginn Elementer wéi Fassadenöffnungen, deelweis erhéijte Stäck, Himmelsgäert a Gëller benotzt fir sech un Lingnan säi waarme a reent Wieder unzepassen. Déi quadratesch a kräfteg architectonesch Form stellt d'Gushu Pompjeesstatioun als e feierlechen a rouege Wiichter duer.

Production Technology: Standardized design:
A uniform column network of 8.4m x 10.2m is used with standardized floor heights: 6 meters for fire engine garages, and 3.9 meters for duty rooms and business rooms.

Centralized layout:
With a limited plot area, the fire station adopts a typical centralized and compact layout.

Green design:
A garden has been created on the rooftop orchard. Concave green area is set for rainwater absorption, storage and infiltration, to effectively control the rainwater runoff within the site.
Design Challenge: Layout: The limited plot area. Based on the special site conditions, the task is to develop a scientifically rational layout that makes the most out of the cramped space available.

Site conditions: The site is surrounded by a great deal of industrial buildings, which causes an strong oppressive feeling and brings stressful firefighting challenges.
Research: The design responds to the future demand for a large number of fire station constructions in Shenzhen, and it also serves as an exemplar for domestic fire station construction. The design caters to the needs of fire stations for responding instantly and safely to any emergency requests, training, recreation, and daily life while keeping in mind the possibility of future professionalization. It also highlights the importance of moderate opening to the community and fire safety culture transmission.
Inspiration: The project site is to the northeast of the intersection of Gushu 2nd Road and Guxing Road in Bao’an District, Shenzhen, China. On the east and west sides of the project site are lands designated for planned factories, while the north side for multi-functional public facilities. Meanwhile, the site is surrounded by a great deal of industrial buildings, which causes a strong oppressive feeling and brings stressful firefighting challenges.
Project Duration: Project design time: November 2017
Project completion time: August 2020
Location: the northeast of the intersection of Gushu 2nd Road and Guxing Road in Bao’an District, Shenzhen, China
Operation Flow: Regarded as the guard of the industrial area, Gushu Fire Station is a grade-1 fire station that can accommodate up to 8 fire trucks. It is a typical fire station with a centralized layout in an industrial zone. With a standardized design approach, the project adapts to local conditions and achieves characterized appearances.
