PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: The original space plan of the project is a square layout. We simplified the shape of the circular caisson and abstracted artistic expression. Combined with the skylight design, the designer introduced natural light into the interior through the fifth facade of the building, and the center continued to focus downward on the theme of the scene. It aims to integrate Chinese traditional architectural philosophy with modern design techniques.

RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Since ancient times, the Eastern peoples have worshipped nature and natural phenomena. Ancient sages put forward the philosophical thought of "the harmony between man and nature", emphasizing imitating nature, conforming to nature, and admiring the universe view of ‘orbicular sky and rectangular earth’. The ceiling of the ancient Chinese architecture, caisson, is the awe and admiration expressed by the ancients to the heavens and the universe.
CHALLENGE: The biggest problem the project designer faced is that the interior space is relatively deep. Also, there is no large glass curtain wall on the exterior of the building, which blocks the natural light and leads to poor indoor lighting. The design strategy is to employ skylights and introduces natural light in through the fifth facade of the building, thereby solving the problem of insufficient lighting in the interior space.
