Press Kit
- Unique Properties
- The staggered buildings around the courtyard perfectly match the topography and water system of the site. The project extracts the dynamic feature from south Chinese architecture and the solemn touch from north Chinese architecture. In this way, the complex well expresses characters of both local architectures and higher educational constructions.

- Production Technology
- The project mainly uses modern reinforced concrete to replace traditional bricks and wooden materials. Besides, it makes innovations in structures and forms. Modern frame and long-span truss structure are utilized to create a large lecture hall without columns. Traditional timber plates under the eaves are substituted for reflective coated glass, which helpfully introduces more daylight into the interior and also produces a fresh visual effect.
- Design Challenge
- Since the interior under traditional roof is complex and need to harmonize with the exposed structural system, the arrangement of pipelines and sprinklers posed a great difficulty. In response, the design team merged pipelines and sprinklers with indoor components and partial decorations, thus suiting the firefighting requirements, without affecting the interior decoration effect. Advanced intelligent system not only meets the current practical needs, while also adapting to future development.
- Research
- The designers made bold breakthroughs in architectural form while keeping its traditional style. The variant of hip-and-gable roof with double eaves used in the lecture hall breaks the established forms of traditional temples and palaces, highlighting a majestic touch. For Zhejiang University, the building complex featuring cultural elements is a reproduction of the original one, carrying the academy's history of over one hundred years and inheriting the historical spirit of "seeking truth".
- Inspiration
- The building complex is able to hold small and medium academic talks, conferences, exhibitions, etc. Based on the forerunner Qiushi Academy, the project integrates modern functions and design techniques with Chinese traditional architectural form. The building complex in a symmetric arrangement produces a solemn image, while also conveying asymmetric variations.

- The "courtyard-style" layout was a prominent feature of the old academy. The restored master plan from historical records reveals that the old academy included main house, side houses, corridors and an enclosed courtyard. The design team attached great importance to it. Therefore, in the new master planning, "Qiushi Lecture Hall" and "Xiqian Hall" are connected by corridors in an enclosed manner, constituting the modern-day Qiushi Academy.
