About Xinhe Group Headquarters Kontorsbyggnad

Xinhe Group Headquarters är ett kontorskomplex i Fuyang, Zhejiangprovinsen. Tomten omges av små kullar och gränsar till vatten på tre sidor. Sex byggnader på tre till fem våningar är placerade längs sjön och följer terrängen, vilket säkerställer naturligt ljus och vidsträckt sjöutsikt för kontorsytorna. Volymen är uppdelad i mindre delar och landskapsanpassad snarare än byggd som ett enda stort block. Marken var en gång en livsmiljö för sjöfåglar, och deras utbredda vingar inspirerade konceptet med den flygande fågeln. Sten, trä, glas och metall kombineras genomgående.

Design Challenge: How can the building integrate and coexist harmoniously with the surrounding lakes and hills? How can we protect the original ecological environment of the plot? And how can we maximize the utilization of the landscape resources?
Research: The Xinhe HQ is in Lihu, Fuyang. It's surrounded by small hills and has water on three sides. The building is designed to fit gently into the local landform.Inside, the office area makes the most of the beautiful lake view, offering a pleasant working environment. Outside, instead of being one large block, the building is divided into smaller parts and landscaped. There are six buildings, each 3 to 5 floors high. They are placed along the lake following the terrain, ensuring plenty of natural light and great views.The land was once a home for water birds. The way these birds spread their wings and their lively look inspired the design concept of a flying bird, which aligns with the client's goals.This HQ shows a new idea: office buildings can live in harmony with nature. By respecting and adapting to nature, the building becomes a link for a positive interaction with the natural world around it, demonstrating a new way of integrating architecture and the environment.
Inspiration: The land for this project used to be a habitat for water birds. The posture of their wings spreading and the sense of dynamism happen to match the client's ambition, so the design concept of the flying bird was thus determined. The Headquarter of the Xinhe proposes a new possibility, that is, the office building can interact harmoniously with nature. By respecting and conforming to nature, the building becomes a carrier for a good interaction with the natural environment.
Project Duration: Location: Fuyang City, Zhejiang Province, design time: January 2021
Operation Flow: The building integrates with the surrounding natural landscape, allowing office occupants to enjoy picturesque views that promote a more relaxed working state.
