RESEARCH ABSTRACT: The original design inspiration comes from the unique Dong minority drum-tower in Guangxi. Tengyuan design team investigated several traditional buildings with Guangxi characteristics, including Sanjiang Drum-tower, and studied the mortise and tenon structure technology of Dong minority drum-tower. At the same time, combined with its octagonal enclosure characteristics, a set of structural combination method suitable for this project is sorted out, which is to express the connotation of traditional craft with modern structural combination methods.
CHALLENGE: The thirteen-storey overlapping eaves are in sharp contrast to the huge and rugged building body, which test the landing ability of the whole design team in the process of implementation. Complex structural combination with a variety of materials, so that light and heavy, clumsy and skillful, sparse and dense, thick and thin, rigid and soft perfectly integrated into a whole. This is the biggest challenge of this case, but also the biggest highlight of the whole design.
