Project Description
This is a space for exhibition and sales. Water is the theme in this case. The architectural design conveys the relation of water, architecture and nature by a transparent concept. The interior is show area and meeting area which is separated by a dimensional lattice wall. Aside the meeting area is a water pond surrounded by continuous glass wall, which becomes the key interior landscape.
We design a luminous water curtain wall for exterior elevation of the architecture to echoing the theme of water. Luminous water curtain wall is consisted by LED light strips, the running light strip looks like running water, which is reflected in the water pond. The water curtain wall has two surfaces, one is the exterior elevation of the architecture and the other is the interior background wall.
A large pool is designed in front of the architecture and it looks like that the whole building is floating on the water. A 50 meter corridor cuts surface of the pool and connects the entrance of the sales from which the guests can access the interior space slowly. Before accessing the entrance, the guests passes a 16-meter-high entrance of light marble wall.
