About Tic Art Ko'rgazma markazi

Tic Art — jamoat shahar timsoli sifatida loyihalashtirilgan ko'rgazma markazidir. Loyiha landshaft, arxitektura, interyer va mahsulotlarni qamrab oladi hamda keng qamrovli va shu bilan birga ritmik makon tajribasini taqdim etadi. Bino va landshaft bo'ylab 25 to'plam qolip yordamida shakllantirilgan qizil g'ishtlar ishlatilgan bo'lib, bu mahalliy loy g'isht an'anasiga amal qiladi va qurilish xarajatlarini kamaytiradi. Ikki qatlamli parda devor keramik g'ishtlarni zamonaviy konstruktiv tizim bilan birlashtiradi, to'g'ridan-to'g'ri quyosh nurlarini filtrlaydi va issiqlik o'tkazuvchanligini kamaytiradi. Bino maydoni 8000 kvadrat metr, landshaft maydoni esa 16000 kvadrat metrni tashkil etadi.

Production Technology
The red bricks used through out architecture and landscape werecreated by 25 sets of molds,resulting in a continuous ambience in the project. The unify material selection was based on the local clay brick production tradition, and achieved a lower overall construction cost, as well as efficiency.
The red bricks used in TIC Art Center were created by 25 sets of molds, resulting in rich specifications and trimming systems. The scale and proportion of the bricks were modernized in relation to the specifications of ‘hand-holdable bricks’, through iterative research on the six indicators, i.e. controllable furnace condition, material performance, applicable structure, process stability, production cost. Thus, the bricks were eventually refined.
Design Challenge
The overall passive design of the building minimizes energy consumption through the double-layer curtain wall system (clay brick grid + cavity + insulated low-e tempered glass) on the east, south and west facades. Compared with conventional curtain walls, the system reduces the heat conduction of the building by about 30% and estimated cooling energy consumption by 30%, effectively improving its insulation performance. At the same time, the 240mm-thick side openwork brick curtain wall system forms a sunlight filter, preventing glares caused by direct sunlight while enhancing the softness of the light through refraction.
An arch with a maximum span of 29 meters is created on the facade wall. The top of the arch is composed of cantilever beams and upturned overhanging folding slabs so that it's higher than the beams between floors. The middle of the arch features cantilever beams and hanging columns and beams to achieve a wide scale. Finally, the non-arch section is build by cantilever beams and brick walls.
The reception areaon the first floor emphasizes a transparentboundarybetween architecture andlandscape.The interior design is basedon the idea of de-interiorization. Firstly, in contrast to the traditional interior lighting solutions, a large intelligent presetlight filmceiling is adopted to obtaina balance between indoor lighting and outdoor daylight.This lighting strategy issimilar to the control of top lightingin photography,helpingcreate a strong sense of vastnessin the space. Secondly, theemphasisonarchitecturalstructure.Theelectromechanical and firesystemsstrictly followthe extension of itsbeam and column system. Thirdly, the interior materialsare directlyderived from thearchitecturalelements,bondingbetween interior and exterior while greatly reducingthe construction costs and risks.
The original lighting product seriesinspired by clothesline, commonly foundintraditional dwellings, act asart installationsinthe interior.It provides supplementarylighting for different areas and is widely used on the first floor. The visually intertwiningcurvessoften the space and respond to the circlesand arcs of the building and landscape.
Research
Since 2020, Chinese government has tightened macro control of the real estate sector, and the policy of rating real estate firms into four classes based on three key indicators signifies that the period of demographic, land and financial dividend is coming to the end. This has caused anxiety in the land market, and real estate developers in the private sector are taking a wait-and-see attitude. The game rules in the real estate market are evolving.
In September 2021,TIC, alandmark urban maker town developed byTimes China, was unveiled to the public. In the same month, to the amazement of citizens of Foshan(located to the Southwest of Guangzhou and within its one-hour life circle), TIC Art Center was completed. Covering aplotarea of 3,000 mu (2 million square meters) and with a gross floorarea of 5 million square meters, the maker town complex, TIC, has turned against the tide in the turbulent real estate market. It has not only secured a leading position for Times China in real estate development in the center of Qiandeng Lake Area, Foshan, but has also become a new hot spot for local citizens.
TIC Art Center, as an iconic symbol that represents the image ofthemakertown, received a total investment of around 180 million yuan.DOMANI was invited to carry out the overall design of the project, with the design scope covering landscape, architecture, interior,products, and more. Meanwhile, top-tier resources in the sectorare joined together to create a top-classworkwith high integrity, highstandards, high academic and commercial value and high urbanity, which is rarely seen in the real estate industryin recent years. The project becomes a hit, indicating that Times China is embarking on a new journey of refined product-oriented long-termdevelopment.
Inspiration
From north to south in China, the color of claybricks usedinfolkhousesgenerallychanges from dark to light. From the traditional use of humus to make clay bricks, which resulted in great losses of arable land and woods, to today's large-scale industrialized production of clayand terracotta bricks, the genes of ‘brick’ and ‘masonry’ in Chinese folk architecture continue to be passed on. Of these, red bricks are particularly widely used in folk buildings for their low cost. With the developmentof urban construction criteria, however, traditional bricks and masonry techniques no longer meet the requirements of large-scale public buildings. To hold back the vanishing of traditional craftsmanship, we need to look deeper at it and redesign an adaptable method.
Project Duration
The project started in October 2019 in Foshan and finished in October 2021 in Foshan, and was exhibited in October 2021.
Operation Flow
The viewing platform stretching to the middle of the pool provides a panorama of the main facade of the building. The mesh-like double-layer curtain wall system is both the visual highlight and the technical focus of the project. A unique grid masonry effect is achieved by combining traditional ‘ceramic bricks’ with modern curtain wall structural design. Equilateral triangular modules are assembled to form the mesh-pattern facade. Thanks to the concealed anti-dropping nodes of the curtain wall, the unique aesthetics of the openwork masonry is ensured, and meanwhile, damage and falling of the ceramic panels are avoided. Through industrialized production, precision of the concealed aluminum alloy unit adopted for the ceramic mesh curtain wall is effectively ensured, whilst significantly improving the efficiency of its installation.
The inner-layer curtain wall adopts ultra-clear glass in its conventional economical size. Single glass pieces with a length of 2,200mm enlarge the view from indoors and ensure fast installation. Thickened and laminated glass ribs avoid exposed frames, and the reduced width of glass ribs increases the utilization of interior space. This structure emphasizes the transparency and invisibility of the glass curtain wall, creating a clearer background for the outer mesh curtain wall formed by triangular ceramic bricks.
A ‘valley’ passageway is constructed in the middle of the architecture. It created a highly through and interactive cavity within the building while separating the main displaying building volume from the operational annexe, it releases an uninterrupted touring experience within the main building. Therefore, multiple functions and flexible alteration of the building would be possible through its life cycle.
It is either art piece or furniture.
the harmonious integration of interior space and architecture is realized, a visual focus is to create rich spatial and sensory experiences for visitors.
