About Mountain Waves ثقافتي مرڪز

ماونٽين ويوز چين جي گوئژو صوبي جي شهر ماوتائي ۾ هڪ ثقافتي مرڪز آهي. اهو ڀونپاڙو ٻن ٽڪرين جي وچ ۾ واقع آهي، ۽ ان جي شڪل چوڌاري موجود جبلن جي لهرن جهڙي بيهڪ جي پيروي ڪري ٿي. ڊزائن ۾ شان شوئي آرٽ جا اصول لاڳو ڪيا ويا آهن، جيڪي جبلن، پاڻي ۽ ماڻهن جي وچ ۾ هڪجهڙائي واري لاڳاپي کي ظاهر ڪن ٿا. روايتي چيني خلائي قسمون جهڙوڪ گليون، صحن ۽ هال، بيهڪ جي رهنمائي ڪن ٿا. هڪ مرڪزي گلي مرڪز کي ٻن حصن ۾ ورهائي ٿي ۽ اتر ۽ ڏکڻ داخلائن کي پاڻ ۾ ڳنڍي ٿي. مقامي باھ-سرو سرا (فائر برڪس)، سوراخن وارا ڌاتوءَ جا پينل، ڪاٺ، اسٽيل ۽ شيشو استعمال ڪيا ويا آهن.

Unique Properties
The incorporation of Shanshui art principles explores a unique design method to reflect upon, respect, and enhance the qualities of Maotai's rich culture and mountainous landscape. The use of traditional Chinese architecture prototypes, such as alleys, courtyards, and halls, as spatial features, aims to create a rich experience for visitors.
Dimensions & Packaging
Overall: 90m(L) x 100m(W) x varies(H), alley width: 10m
Tags
cultural architecture, regionalism, atmosphere, mountain, Shanshui
Production Technology
Local fire bricks, perforated metal panels, wood, steel, glass
Design Challenge
Challenges:
1. How to break down the volume using the logic of "waves" and create a sense of continuity between the natural surroundings and the built environment.
2. How to minimize the building's negative impact on the local micro-climate by designing a perforated facade.
3. How to take into consideration the local cultural context and industries.
Research
I gained a comprehensive understanding of the site conditions, the local culture, and the Shanshui art, through site visits, conversations with locals, and online research,
Inspiration
Chinese Shanshui paintings feature mountains, water, and people in a harmonious relationship. The site is in Maotai, China. Sandwiched between two hills, it presents a unique opportunity for us to engage the landscape in the design process. In the background, we see the mountainous landscape, looking like "waves" of mountains.
Project Duration
Duration: 2 months. Location: Maotai, Guizhou, China
Operation Flow
The two hills (north and south) are connected by an alley that "cuts" the cultural center into two parts (east and west) - this creates "the landscape path". Visitors can come in and leave the building through both the north entrance and the south entrance - this creates the ground-level through-connection.
