About Kirin Island Centru Expozițional

Kirin Island este un centru expozițional situat în Jining, provincia Shandong, China. Clădirea constituie prima fază a unui parc industrial. Centrul este utilizat în etapa inițială pentru expoziții de planificare și promovarea investițiilor, urmând să devină ulterior o sală de expoziții urbană conectată la spațiul public din jur. Designul urmează ideea cerului rotund și a pământului pătrat, astfel încât o clădire pătrată cuprinde o curte interioară rotundă. O structură cu cadre și pereți de forfecare, cu o deschidere de 18,6 metri, creează un spațiu interior fără stâlpi. Consolele de 10,3 metri de pe laturile de nord și de sud formează zone semi-exterioare.

Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.

Unique Properties: The project is the first phase of Mass Entrepreneurship and Innovation Industrial Park of Jining High-tech District, which will be used for planning exhibition and investment promotion of the industrial park in early stage, and transformed to be an urban exhibition hall integrated into the surrounding public space in later stage. Put forward six design concepts:" Round and Square, Axial Symmetry, A Floating Box, Kylin-Like Exterior, Integration of space and Beyond the Bounds".
Dimensions & Packaging: Total land area: 7234.47m2
Gross floor area: 3920.01m2
Floor area ratio: 1.85
Height: 16.6m
Floors: 3 (3 above the ground and 0 underground)
Tags: Public service buildings, Hometown of Confucius and Mencius, Round and Square, Axial Symmetry, A Floating Box, Kylin-Like Exterior, Integration of space, Beyond the Bounds
Production Technology: The building is a frame-shear wall structure,with a north-south overhang of 10.3m and a span of 18.6m between the two traffic cores in the middle. The long-span structure realizes a pillar-less indoor space and creates a broad and through overall space. The far-reaching overhangs on the north and south sides create a semi-outdoor activity space for the public.
Design Challenge: The building is a frame-shear wall structure, with a north-south overhang of 10.3m and a span of 18.6m between the two traffic cores in the middle. The design and construction of large span concrete structures need to overcome many design difficulties and innovative implementation. Local culture is integrated into the design. Other decorative elements are excluded except Kirin scales to emphasize simpleness of the facade and material texture. The curtain wall design needs to solve many technical problems of oblique support and division.
Research: The project is located in Jining, Shandong Province, occupying a superior geographical location surrounded by residential and commercial office areas with complete transportation and supporting facilities. To make full use of street corners and surrounding resources, the build is designed to be a cuboid from the macro perspective of urban design, and realizes good orientation and visibility at all interfaces through lifting, twisting, protruding, retreating and overhanging.
Inspiration: The design of the project focuses on the culture of Jining, the Hometown of Confucius and Mencius, the City of the Grand Canal, and reinterprets traditional regional elements by modern techniques to create a modern and simple architectural form with regional characteristics.
Project Duration: The project started in November 2020 and finished in October 2021 in Jining City, Shandong Province, China.
Operation Flow: The design is based on the relationship between "round sky and square earth" to create a "square" building with a "round" courtyard to achieve a pure and quiet atmosphere. The project realized regional expression with modern formal language, restrained structure, space and materials, and rebuilt the relationship between tradition, nature, architecture and human. It has become a focal point of the region, and the first business card of Kylin Island of Jining High-tech District.
