- Unique Properties
- Yongning Station is an urban MINI complex with public toilets as the main function and combined with leisure, exhibition and other supporting services.
The public exhibition hall enjoys an open view to the river. The designers transformed the thickness of the "screen" into a three-dimensional "screen niche" of its own system. The physical part conceals service functions such as sales, washing and storage, etc., and the white window holes become the eyes to seize the changing scenery of nature. - Dimensions & Packaging

- Production Technology
- The public toilet is the core interpretation of the concept of "returning to public private space". Internally, the plane is arranged according to the modulus of 300mm, and functional modules such as wall column network, bathroom equipment, hvac and exhaust air are installed on this chassis. The standard modular unit limits the body space of the user's smallest unit to minimize the private space.
- Design Challenge
- The challenge was how to combine openness of public area and privacy of toilet area.
"Screen" was used as a key element to organize space and incorporate scenery. In the exhibition hall that enjoys an open view to river, thickness of the "screen" is transformed into a three-dimensional "screen niche", with service functions for selling, washing and storage hidden inward. In toilet area, "screen" is compressed into a thin layer of mirror, which wraps 4 independent boxes and forms an interface. - Research
- In 2004, Yongning park went through a large-scale renovation, which is the local realization of the "anti-planning" construction concept of native landscape. It transformed a river channel with the single function of flood control into a diversified habitat system, and won the annual awards of the ministry of construction and the American Society of Landscape Architects. However, with the s hift of the center of gravity of urban public activity space, the site is slowly waning and losing its vitality.
- Inspiration
- In memory, the Yongning park before repair is a forbidden land, the river is dangerous, and it is full of mudflat.
When I was a child, I would go to catch crabs by the river with my little friends after school. However, I was always wary of the danger of sunset ebb tide. Suddenly there was a parental reprimand, the moment when the afterglow disappears into the earth plane...The uncertainty of these moments is fixed into an impression word in the deep memory - fleeting scenery. - Project Duration
- Duration: from May 2018 to May 2019
Location: Yongning, China - Operation Flow
- The site is located in the transitional part of landscape rambling-way and urban fast road. "OPEN" is the first thinking of architecture to intervene in the site. It opens the visual channel of city and landscape like uncovering exhibition, forms the shape of "eight". Along the route, there is a public exhibition hall facing the river view on the left, an introverted public toilet space on the right, and a strip corridor walking among the Osman thus trees.
