RESEARCH ABSTRACT: -
CHALLENGE: To complete the innovative multi-functional sales office, achieve different functional at different times. The reception lobby into a canal library that combines local history and culture. Construction structure Introducing area become a play library belonging to children. The audio-visual room for the demonstration will be turned into a family movie theater for the residents. Both environmental protection and sustainable development will be completed while fulfilling different missions. I think the biggest difficulty of this design challenge is how to create a strong correlation between this plot and the surrounding historical landscape.
The Beijing-Hangzhou Canal, which has been existed for 500 years, was combined with the new thinking ideas into the current sales office. Let the spirit of the canal reappear in the library, so that users of the future community can feel the history of 500 years ago and return to the library.
Therefore, we believe that the extraction and collection of culture, when converted to design, whether can be properly expressed by using new methods of technology, new techniques to express a situation in which time and space are intertwined.
It is the most difficult challenge we think.
When the overall concept is completed, the biggest difficulty we have encountered is the control of the LED effect. How to achieve the way that LEDs shine and rhythm like the canal sparkling that our designers want. It did take a lot of time. Through continuous communication with relevant technical personnel, we finally achieve the best effect that budget allowed.
