About City Of Light Samfunnshus

City of Light er et samfunnshus bygget i et gammelt distrikt i Shanghai, Kina. Bygningen rommer en gymsal, et yogaklasserom, en temapaviljong for barn, en kafé, et kunstgalleri, et helsesenter for eldre og et studieområde for barn. Formen følger rytmen til elven foran tomten, slik at fasaden er buet og sammenhengende som rennende vann. Aluminiumsplater, et økonomisk og vanlig materiale, ble formet til en hyperboloid overflate ved hjelp av tredimensjonal modellering. Den åpne plassen foran inviterer beboerne til å møtes og samhandle.

Press Kit

Unique Properties: As a public community project, this project is set up as a city station. It is a public open community building with gymnasium, yoga classroom, children s theme pavilion, cafe, art gallery, elderly health center, children s study area, etc. It is a community-oriented open space, but at the same time, we want to be the center and landmark of the surrounding community.So we hope to design a fluid building like water, and hope that the square in front will function as a very open community.
Dimensions & Packaging: area 17222sq.ft
Tags: Streamlined building, The beauty of the curve, Urban shared space, Communication, Lighting
Production Technology: In this project what we adopted is a relatively cost effective and conventional material aluminum plate as a material choice, but we are challenging to design a curved facade, so it is difficult to install aluminum plate on the streamlined lines.And at the same time it functions as a hyperboloid. We used 3D model design and finally made the shape of the building. We realized a hyperboloid effect with aluminum plates. Although it uses economical materials, it is still challenging.
Design Challenge: I hope that this project will bring new vitality in the surrounding old city. We have adopted a new architectural approach and hope it will become a landmark in the surrounding communities, using the creative and fluid architecture. We hope to drive the vitality of the city and create more space, increase more ties between people so that it will become a community center.
Research: In fact, this is a new building based on an old town project. The government wants to build a city station in the old city,hoping to allow more community people to participate, enter and increase the interaction between the neighborhoods. Rather than because of the construction and development of the city, people are becoming more and more estranged. I hope that everyone will have more exchanges.
Inspiration: A river is in front of this project. So we want to develop the design concept from the rhythm of the water itself with the usage of the liquid-like blob architecture. My inspiration comes from the undulating rhythm of the water.
Project Duration: The project started in Jan 2018 in Shanghai,China, and finished in JAN 2019 in Shanghai,China,and was exhibited in in Shanghai,China,Jan 2019.
Operation Flow: We hope to design an open public space and strive to build a center of the city to increase the interaction of the neighborhood instead of estrange people with the city architecture development. I hope everyone has more communities communication and people to people contact.So we hope to make a more open space for everyone to enter.
