The poject is located in a key development plot in Longhua District, Shenzhen, surrounded by dense residential and office space. Therefore, the core of this project is to create a public platform and hub for cultural exchange, which can further stimulate the cultural vitality of regional public spaces in the future.How to open and share the building space and make the project related to the surrounding area has become a key issue in the planning and design of the project.
Inspiration
The project is located in a busy transportation hub,the design needed to create a place that conveys a sense of calm and serenity,while responding to the sense of solemnity that culture itself represents.Think of the two venues as a pair of hands that enclose the central space,creating an atmosphere of preciousness and protection.These hands also symbolize the connection between people,it brings together people from different cultural backgrounds and stimulates creativity and cultural exchange.
Project Duration
The project started in 2015 in Shenzhen and finished in 2023.
Operation Flow
The project have become public living rooms where people are happy to stop by. Visitors can take a break and enjoy a variety of local and international exhibitions in the cool and tranquil atrium space. The public nature of the project brings more affinity. The extensive participation of the general public has promoted the popularization of aesthetic education and the spread of culture, greatly enhanced the value of cultural venues, and better realized the designer's original intention.
