Diagrams Shape

The irregular shape of the building is not just to make an impression. We wanted to create high end office spaces with access to exterior space. By pushing the volumes back and forth, we managed to create just that. While this action created balconies in some situations, it created overhangs in others. Hence, forming protected area underneath for the commercial area and the office entries which can be very valuable especially during the Shanghai rain season.

Facade:

The exterior facade is made up of expanded Aluminium mesh. This is a material with many useful properties (besides being extremely inexpensive and durable) with which we managed to create a facade that does more than just cover the building. Having a commercial street on the ground floor, we felt that privacy of the offices needed special attention. An innate property of the mesh is that it blocks the view from one direction while letting in the view from the other, depending on the angle of the viewer. The way we made use of this, a person standing on the ground floor wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be able to see through the mesh on the upper floor while the people inside the office can still see outside. Furthermore, the material transforms the direct sunlight and gives it off to the interior as diffuse and more comfortable light, reducing the need of additional shading. 9

Design Description Introduction:

As part of the new Tongji Science and Technology Park in Jiading, Shanghai, the design task for this project was to create a high level office complex with a commercial street on the ground floor. The building stretches along Huang Du LĂź Yuan Road and extends the commercial street coming from the North. The building has a total construction area of 8584m2 of which 5907m2 are office and 2677m2 are commercial.

Shape:

Work Portfolio Damian Donze 2011-2014

Layout:

The building is clearly divided into two parts, the ground floor which is designated for commercial uses while the upper floors are for offices. Similarly, the main entrances of the commercial functions are from inside the commercial street while the offices get accessed from the outside (or underground). A challenge was the fact that we didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know who the end user was going to be nor how he was going to use the building. This meant that we had to design flexible spaces which could be used in different ways. This was simply solved by leaving large spaces empty. Additionally, we gave each commercial unit a small kitchen in order to leave the option for a bar or a small restaurant open. The office part got subdivided into seven office units ranging from 670m2 to 960m2 which can function individually, and therefore, be sold to separate buyers. Each unit has its own entrance with a small lobby space where one can access the elevator or the open staircase connecting the upper floors.

Facade:

The thermal facade is almost entirely made up of curtain wall glazing only to be interrupted by small opaque parts which can be opened for natural ventilation. We wanted it to be as open as possible in order to leave as many possibilities open for the end user. The exterior facade is made up of expanded Aluminium mesh. This is a material with many useful properties (besides being extremely inexpensive and durable) with which we managed to create a facade that does more than just cover the building. Having a commercial street on the ground floor, we felt that privacy of the offices needed special attention. An innate property of the mesh is that it blocks the view from one direction while letting in the view from the other, depending on the angle of the viewer. The way we made use of this, a person standing on the ground floor wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be able to see through the mesh on the upper floor while the people inside the office can still see outside. Furthermore, the material transforms the direct sunlight and gives it off to the interior as diffuse and more comfortable light, reducing the need of additional shading. With this facade language we also managed to integrate the handrails of the balcony into the facade as well as the rooftop pavilions. Thus, we formulated a design that incorporated different parts of the building and to form a whole. 14

The location of the new Beijing Minzu University library is right at the end of two important axes. One is a main road coming from the north, and the other one is the raised pedestrian walkway coming from the south. The lake on the south-west side of the plot improves the quality of the site by inserting nature if connected properly.

Floor Plan 2nd Version: 2nd Floor

The foot-print of the library is derived from the shape of the plot. It follows the road on the north and encircles the pedestrian walkway on the south. Furthermore, we have added circular “cuts” into the building which embrace all the axes leading towards the building. The roof still continues over the cuts, though, which then creates a protective, exterior roof over the main entrances. The two ends (east/west) are shaped to keep a similar language as the afore mentioned cuts. The shape also emphasizes the view of the west side over the lake while the east side builds up a connection with the bordering museum. Work Portfolio Damian Donze 2011-2014

Function Generally, we tried to arrange the program so that the functions which have many visitors, like the offices and the literal books stacks, are on the lower floors while functions with less visitors, like ancient books stacks or reserved copy stacks are on the higher floors. This greatly relieves the circulation of the building. One could say that the building is functionally divided into the three following parts: 1. The Self-Study Classrooms: They are located towards the west, as close to the student dormitories as possible. The class rooms are organized on two levels with open staircases connecting them so that the doors to the public library can be locked while the classrooms still stay accessible for the students after the library opening hours. 2. The Computer Center/ Misc. Offices Similar as the classrooms, the computer center and the library offices are located on east side of the building, as close to the staff buildings and the campus parking lots as possible. They are spread out over two floors, as well, and could also be run separately to the public library, if desired.

3. Public Library For the layout of the library functions we strove to keep the individual functions on the same level. With a large library, like this, book transport becomes a large task. Wherefore, it is important to keep the pathways on one level to reduce unnecessary traffic. The underground is kept small. It contains only the mechanical rooms and the book storage. We moved the book storage to the underground for structural reasons, but also because of the more favorable climate for books.

Circulation Special attention was given to the public circulation of this building to ensure a smooth flow throughout the building. It all starts with the entrances which are designated to their functions. Because of the raised walkway, it is save to assume that a large part of the visitors will enter from the second floor. Hence, we raised the main entrance lobby to the second floor. The lobby can also be accessed from the north side with a large staircase which, besides being functional, adds to the monumental image of the building. The large lobby space contains a system of staircases, bridges and elevators which act as the main vertical public circulation. This space subdivides the volume into two wings of which each has its own courtyard with an additional system of bridges and stairs in it. Still not satisfied with the circulation, we added, yet another, open staircase on each end of the building. Thus, creating a solid circulation capable of ensuring a smooth flow throughout the public part of the library. Four additional entrances of importance are on the ground floor level. The north entrance for the auditorium, the south entrance mainly for new books, the west entrance for the selfstudy classrooms and the east entrance for the computer center. Each the computer center and the self-study classrooms have their individual small lobby with separate staircases enabling them, though connected to the library, to operate as separate entities. Lastly, the south entrance is located close to the road which makes load-

ing and unloading of books very convenient. After the books are unloaded and edited (editing offices are also located right next to the entrance), the books can be transported to the two freight elevators to be moved up to their destination in the library.

Site Since all the entrances have been reduced to four locations, the rest of the site can be organized in a park-like manner. Most of it is grass and trees, only to be occasionally cut by small pathways. Thus, creating a lively and comfortable environment for the library.

Work Portfolio Damian Donze 2011-2014

Interior Because the library is a public building intended for a large number of people, it includes many large open spaces. Be it the entrance lobby with a room height of 19 meters or book stacks with several thousand square meters, the spaces of the public library are very generous.

Work Portfolio Damian Donze 2011-2014

Facade One of our main concern, while developing the facade, was that direct sunlight is heavily destructive for books. We didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to put all our trust on UV filters as their longevity canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be guaranteed in this case nor their proper maintenance. Logically, we couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just close the facade to protect the books because people still need natural light for reading. Hence, we came up with a facade system which opens up and closes according to the interior function. The facade is made of metal fins which move along the facade in a wave-like manner. The glass, behind the fins, follows this movement which makes it open in certain areas and close in others. Wherever there are reading areas or functions which require natural lights, the facade is open while the book stacks are safe behind the denser parts. The act of adding fins to the facade greatly increases the efficiency of this action.

Ventilation The building is relatively flat and deep due to the required amount of square meters and the maximum building height of 24 meters. For this reason we added courtyards to bring in more natural light and ventilation. Direct sunlight, however, is treated with a lot of caution because of its damaging effects on books.

Design Description 1. Site Description

2. Project Overview

The Beijing Minzu University Library has a total area of 33’168m2. Other than the library, the building, also contains the university computer center and Self-Study Classrooms for the students. It, therefore, will provide services to public visitors, students and staff. Furthermore, the multi-function-auditorium on the ground floor provides seating for 260 people. All in all, the building can take up as many as 4’000 people while it has stacks for 2’000’000 books. The estimated construction cost is 146’070’000RMB.

3. Design Concept

The shape of the building is, to a certain degree, a derivation of its environment. The curved shape of the building follows the curve of the road and makes good use of the site. The round cut-outs of the building react to the two main axes from north and south, as well as a minor one from the north-east, embracing the people nearing the building. A library serves a great amount of people which means that a good function/circulation layout is crucial. Generally, the functions are laidout horizontally to simplify book transport. The vertical layout is just as important, however. The functions with the least visitors are at the top while the ones with the most visitors are located at the bottom. This greatly reliefs the vertical circulation elements and ensures fluent movement throughout the building. Additional attention was given to the creation of a public, vertical circulation system including several open staircases and pathways. The building is relatively flat and deep due to the required amount of square meters and the maximum building height of 24 meters. For this

reason we added courtyards to bring in more natural light and ventilation. Direct sunlight, however, is treated with a lot of caution because of its damaging effects on books. That is why the facade has horizontal fins which are organized in a wave-like pattern, opening and closing depending on the interior usage.

4. Masterplan

Roads almost entirely encircle the building, continuing even towards the south below the raised walkway. Not wanting to destroy the impressive front of the north facade, we located the car parking towards the south where it is partly hidden by the raised walkway. Looking from the north, the whole building is elevated by 2 meters. This is to compensate the natural height difference of the site and to emphasize the monumental front of the building. There are four public squares indicating four main entrances (one of them being on the raised walkway). Since all the entrances have been reduced to four locations, the rest of the site can be organized in a park-like manner. Most of it is grass and trees, only to be occasionally cut by small pathways. Thus, creating a lively and comfortable environment for the library.

Space Layout: Since the library is a public building intended for a large number of people, it includes many large open spaces. Be it the entrance lobby with a room height of 19 meters or book stacks with several thousand square meters, the spaces of the public library are very generous. Structure Type: The building is designed so that it can be built with a common concrete structure. The vertical curve of the building can structurally be solved with inclined columns. In order to span the large entrance hall without having visible

columns, a steel truss system will be necessary. Hidden columns inside the central elevator shaft will reduce the size and cost of the afore mentioned. These measures taken, we can now use a structural glazing system as the window structure in order to have a facade which will appear to be almost entirely out of glass. Form Creation: The foot-print of the library is derived from the shape of the plot. It follows the road on the north and encircles the pedestrian walkway on the south. Furthermore, we have added circular “cuts” into the building which embrace all the axes leading towards the building. The roof still continues over the cuts, though, which then create a protective, exterior roof over the main entrances. The two ends (east/west) are shaped to keep a similar language as the afore mentioned cuts. The shape also emphasizes the view of the west side over the lake while the east side builds up a connection with the bordering museum. To create a connection with the Chinese environment we tried to shape the building in a way that somehow imitates the floating movement of a traditional Chinese roof.

cade is made of metal fins which move along the facade in a wave-like manner. The glass, behind the fins, follows this movement which makes it open in certain areas and close in others. Wherever there are reading areas or functions which require natural lights, the facade is open while the book stacks are safe behind the denser parts. The act of adding fins to the facade greatly increases the efficiency of this action. The two ends of the building are covered with regular vertical fins. As the sun rises/sets, it shines from a very low angle, wherefore, horizontal fins wouldn’t be very effective. Especially with the curved shape of the building’s east/west ends, horizontal fins are more practical.

Materials: The facade is composed of glass and aluminum panels. The aluminum panels will retain their original color, and therefore shine in a light gray metallic color. The horizontal fins, also made of aluminum, are mat-white so that a big part of the sunlight hitting the fins will enter the building as diffuse, less aggressive light. Facade Description: One of our main concern, while developing the facade, was that direct sunlight is heavily destructive for books. We didn’t want to put all our trust on UV filters as their longevity can’t be guaranteed in this case nor their proper maintenance.

Organization The building is organized so that highly frequented functions such as auditorium, meeting rooms, restaurant and common stacks were located on the lower floor while less frequented functions like the archive were located on the higher floors. Thus, considerably improving the efficiency of the vertical circulation. The standard floor height is 4.8m with the exception of the ground floor with 6m. This gives us a total height of 30 which makes the building the same height as the GYM and the tech. institute. In this way the building fits seamless into the current site

51 The main entrance of the library is on the north side, facing a large square and the axis that passes the gym. The public elevator is located in the center of the building which create good accessibility of every part of every floor. As an alternative, there is a system of open staircases spiraling around the atria. Books arrive in the underground, where they have access to the freight elevator where they can be transported to the editing offices on the ground floor. The stacks are arranged on large floors with no steps which makes the distribution of the books easy. The office entrance is located on the North side, close to the staff housing. Right at the entrance is an elevator that leads up to the top-floor offices, connecting the two office functions.

We created wide stairs that, not only connect the different floors, but also creates high quality space for studying. Besides having the function of connecting the different floors, the se stairs also add to the magnificence of the atrium space.

Lighting/Ventilation

The sheer size of the building required us to add two great atria to improve natural lighting as well as natural ventilation. By closing the atria, however, we kept our building compact to reduce the area of exterior walls. Thus, greatly reducing heating cost during the cold Beijing winters.

Therefore, the reading area was arranged along the facade, while the stacks got located further inside the building. As the stacks get more compact towards the top, the requirement for reading area becomes less. The facade follows the need of natural lighting. On the lower floors, where more light is needed, the facade opens up while it closes on the upper floors to protect the books.

Design Description Intro

The Beijing Agriculture University Library has a construction area of 49’000m2 with 3’000 seats and space for more than 2’000’000 books. While, for the most part, the building has library functions, there are also functions like a self-study area, a restaurant, an auditorium, several offices and some meeting rooms. The functions are, although in the same building, separated internally to allow them to be run independently. Generally, most of the focus was given to the function layout and site integration. The building is not supposed to be another landmark building, but a successful addition to the existing campus which can take care of all the functions while providing a comfortable environment for students to study and research.

a standard floor height of 4.8m. Thus, creating a total building height of 30m which happens to be the same as the neighboring Tech. Building and the Gym. This helps to create a harmonious campus skyline. The regular shape of the building makes it fit well into the existing campus and strengthens the campus axis. We also took the cold Beijing winters into consideration in our design. Having a compact building reduces the exterior surface which helps to greatly reduce the need for heating.

4. Function and Circulation

The site is located on the east side of the campus, between teaching and living area. In the south there’s a stadium with a large public square in front of it while in the north there is a high-rise residential compound. Bordering on the west side is an important Tech. Building. The site expands east on the north/east corner along West Xiaoyuehe Road, forming an L-shaped site of approximately 20,000 square meters.

The building is organized so that highly frequented functions such as the auditorium, the meeting rooms, the restaurant and the common stacks were located on the lower floor while less frequented functions like the archive were located on the higher floors. Thus, considerably improving the efficiency of the vertical circulation. Having set up the necessary fire escapes, we decide to add a secondary system of open staircases. We created wide stairs that, not only connect the different floors, but also create high quality space for studying. Besides having the function of connecting the different floors, these stairs also add to the magnificence of the atriumspace.

2. Footprint

5. Facade

1. Site

We analyzed the campus in order to create a footprint that respects the surrounding buildings and traffic axis. Knowing the importance of the Tech. Institute, we continued the outline of the institute building from the West as well as offsetted our building the same distance from the road. Hence, creating a brotherly atmosphere. Furthermore, we continued the outline of the dorm building in order to create some green space between the library and the campus border. Out of this we had a usable site area of about 10’000m2.

3. Massing

After many attempts of physical models as well as 3D models, we ended up using a simple but functional massing and layout. It is a six-story building with a ground-floor height of 6m, and

Direct sunlight destroys the binding and brittles books. People, however, require light to read. Therefore, the reading area was arranged along the facade, while the stacks got located further inside the building. As the stacks get more compact towards the top, the requirement for reading area becomes less. The facade follows the need of natural lighting. So, on the lower floors, where more light is needed, the facade opens up while it closes down on the upper floors to protect the books. The fifth elevation was given a lot of attention since the building is surrounded by many highrises. It is made of roof-gardens and skylight windows which, in some ways, resemble the landscape design of the building while, at the same time, greatly improving the quality of the 6th floor. As to the facade material, we, again, tried to find

something that fits well with the surrounding. Most of the buildings are made of brown bricks or are painted in earth-like colors. Therefore, our choice fell on a brown natural stone.

6. Lighting

Through a variety of ways, such as the skylights, the scattered facade windows, the atria and the double height spaces, the interior space ensures maximum natural diffuse lighting for reading space without letting in direct sunlight that could damage books.

Project Overview The Hebei University, formerly known as China Beiyang University, was the first engineering university in modern China. The project site with, an area of 48'636m2, is located in the center of the new Beicheng Campus of the Hebei University. The building has a footprint of 15'510m2 with a total construction area of 45'290m2 (40'385m2 above ground and 4'905m2 underground). The building is 8 stories high which gives it a height of 40m. The library can hold up to 2'400'000 books and provide seating for 4'500 people.

The South of the campus is designated to teaching buildings while the North and West are designated for living and sport. In the center, separating the functions, is a green belt which includes a park and the site of the new library. The central location of the site gives the library a privileged situation and makes it easily accessible from the whole campus.

The site is centrally located, right at the intersection of the 3 main axis. This puts the building in the middle of the view from each gate.

The site is surrounded by water that starts from the park in the West and runs all the way to the East gate. This gives it some distance from the teaching buildings and gives us the opportunity to create a nice landscape.

Both, the building outline in the North and the building outline in the South, are perpendicular to their axis. The building is offsetted 50m from the waterfront and 45m from the street in the North.

We tried to keep the width of the building so that it would be fully visible from two important viewpoints. One point was the North gate, and the second point was the square in the South.

Similarly to the North/South outline, the East/West outline is derived from the site and runs, mostly, parallel to the site border.

The functions of the library have been separated into 3 main parts to improve circulation and guarantee ease of access. This reduces the main flow hitting the main South and North entrances.

The main building with 30'000m2 is reserved for the library while the large first floor, with around 10'000m2, holds the secondary functions and is divided up into East and West.

The library offices are located on the South-West side of the base and reaches all the way to the library reception and the book check in/out area. The short distance improves the book processing time. The convention center, containing an au-

ditorium (500 seats), a lecture hall (200 seats) and a conference hall (100 seats) is located on the East side, close to the East gate to ensure good accessibility from outside.

Peripheral Reading Area

The library, besides providing functions like an E-reading area, a periodical reading area and a leisure reading area, also contains a variety of study areas. We focused on creating study spaces with a lot of natural lighting. We, therefore, arranged them inside and around the two large atria as well as along the facade. To further improve the quality of the reading spaces along the facade, we created many "Loft" spaces where the ceiling was set back from the facade to generate double/ triple height space. This not only adds more natural light for the reading area, but also moves the stacks further away from the natural light which is desirable considering the damaging effect of direct sunlight on books.

Most important are the 4 elevators in the center that provide fast access (being in the center) to every part of the building and build a strong "back spine" of our circulation system. However, elevators require waiting time and use energy, so we developed an intricate system of public stairs to reduce the traffic for the elevators.

The buildings in the North of the library are made up of a lot of brick and, somewhat, try to imitate the style of the old campus. Hence, we decided to use a similar earthy material, terra-cotta.

The buildings in the South of the library use simple and plain colors. We tried to develop a fitting language for the main South facade to create a smooth transition. Our choice fell on pale natural stone that can create a similar image as the other buildings, yet is of higher quality.

Work Portfolio Damian Donze 2011-2014

Lighting/Ventilation Natural Ventilation Besides the natural ventilation provided by the facade, we added two shafts on the East side and the West side to provide fresh air for the toilettes and the fresh air rooms. Natural Lighting The lower atria (floors 2-5) obtain their light through the structural glazing facade while the upper atria (floors 6-8) each have an additional skylight to provide a comfortable reading environment. Most of the facade, however, is using standard windows to ensure energy efficiency as well as to control the direct sunlight that enters into the building.

Skylights

Building Partition The building is horizontally divided between the 5th and the 6th floor. The client wants to use the lower part first while opening up the upper part later on. By thermally dividing the building, we answered to that request and made sure that the lower part can be heated/ cooled independently from the upper part during the first phase.

Intro The Hebei University, formerly known as China Beiyang University, was the first engineering university in modern China. The competition site, with an area of 48'636m2, is located in the center of the new Beicheng Campus of the Hebei University. The building has a footprint of 15'510m2 with a total construction area of 45'290m2 (40'385m2 above ground and 4905m2 underground). The building is 8 stories high which gives it a height of 40m. The library can hold up to 2'400'000 books and provide seating for 4500 people. Functionally, the building is clearly divided. The base of the building is designated for some offices, an archive, a network center, a convention center and an exhibitions center. This way the West entrance is reserved for the offices and the network center while the East entrance is reserved for the convention center and the exhibition center. Having taken care of the secondary functions inside the base, we were able to keep the library itself pure and clean inside the main, central part of the building. There are two entrances to the library: One from the North, on the ground floor, and one from the South on the second floor. The South entrance was put on the second floor to leave base undisturbed. Additionally, did we emphasize the staircase by extending it all the way to the East entrance. Together with the sloped roof of the base, this creates a smooth transition from the site to the building. The siteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s design extends the buildings functions into becoming a place where people can stay and take a break from the stress of their studies. Site and Surrounding The South of the campus is designated to teaching buildings while the North and West are designated for living and sport buildings. The standard height of the other campus buildings is 24 meters, and most buildings are kept in gray or white tones. However, the

buildings in the North are clad in bricks and, somehow, try to imitated the old campus. In the center, separating the functions, is a green belt which includes a park and the location of the new library. The library is surrounded by water that starts from the park in the West and runs all the way to the East gate. This gives it some distance from the teaching buildings and gives us the opportunity to create a nice landscape. The site is located right at the intersection of the 3 main axes which places the building in the middle of the view from each gate. This puts the library in a privileged situation and makes it easily accessible from the whole campus. Building Borders Both, the building outline in the North and the building outline in the South, are perpendicular to their axis.

Function Layout The functions of the library have been separated into 3 main parts to improve circulation and guarantee ease of access. This reduces the main flow hitting the main South and North entrances. The main building with 30'000m2 is reserved for the library while the large first floor, with around 10'000m2 holds the secondary functions and is divided up into East and West. The library offices are located on the South-West side of the base and reaches all the way to the library reception and the book check in/out area. The short distance improves the book processing time. The convention center, containing an auditorium (500 people), lecture hall (200 people) and a conference hall (100 people) is located on the East side close to the East gate to ensure good accessibility.

thermally dividing the building, we answered to that request and made sure that the lower part can be heated/cooled independently from the upper part during the first phase.

Internally, the library is organized in a way so that the functions that are more frequented are on the lower floors while functions which are less frequented are on the top floors. This brings a great improvement in terms of circulation.

Facade Looking at the facade of the building, one may easily be reminded of ying and yang. These principles were, in fact, part of our influence.

Structure The basic structure is made of concrete column and beam structure connected with the shear walls of the cores. However, we made use of a steel truss to span the two overhangs in the North and the South.

Our choice fell on a pale natural stone that can create a similar image as the other buildings, yet is of higher quality. With the twisting motion of the two types of the facade were we able to take up the two styles and connect the North with the South/old and new. We also took the interior into consideration, however, which is why the facade has a higher percentage of openings on the lower floors while it closes up towards the top. This action, once again, give more natural light where it is needed (study area) while it protects the books in the compact stacks on the upper floors.

A more secluded entrance in the South is reserved for VIPs and celebrities. In the West, away from the public traffic flow, is the staff entrance with a truck-docking-station. This entrance can take care of all the logistics of the theaters without having to interrupt the public area.

West Light Insider’s View

The facade is made up of alternating normal metal panels with perforated metal panels. This comes with several advantages. For example, it can block people's view from seeing inside, while from the inside one can still see outside. Furthermore, it can prevent the deeply penetrating morning and evening light from entering, while comfortable daylight still can enter. 109

Design Description Project Overview

Architectural Style

The Culture Department of Yunnan Province has conceived the Southwest International Ethnic Culture and Art Center as a multifunctional international cultural exchange place in order to increase the protection of the national cultural heritage, to strengthen the cultural relics, to take full advantage of the rich cultural resources of Yunnan Province, and to deepen cultural exchange and cooperation with Southeast Asia. The project is located in the core area of Kunming Chenggong New C.B.D., is 6-stories/36m high, and has a floor area of about 35,000 square meters.

The footprint of the building was simply derived from the building site while the interior got divided into four, round parts that were cut by the building outline. This dialog between the outside and the interior creates a rich spatial effect. The contour of each segment enlarges towards the top, in a cone-like manner, to the point where they finally intersects. The resulting public atrium is illuminated by a number of skylights that let the sun shine in. Though the four segments could function individually, they are interconnected with many pedestrian bridges to ensure the possibility of free movement throughout the building.

Design Concept

For the facade, we tried to implement the local cultures in an abstract way. It is made up of alternating perforated and non-perforated metal panels that cover and protect the building, yet let sunlight enter and lets people see outside. At each entrance, however, the facade opens up, much like a theater curtain, and creates the entrance situations. The facade acts like a dress for the building, and in it's own way, takes reference from the local minorities. Even more so at night when the LEDs of the facade create a colorful play, almost as if the building was dancing it's own dance.

The main challenge here was to integrate the local cultures plus various functional programs into one contemporary yet harmonious form. In the preliminary analysis, we extracted two main aspects for the building to focus on. First, the different local cultural identities with their traditional dresses, dances and songs. Second, the Hani rice terraces together with the local subtropical plant diversity. The method for the manifestations of cultural identity was an important issue for us. Many cases show that a growing number of new cultural buildings try to directly imitate traditional buildings or even objects. Generally speaking, these new buildings build with new construction methods and new materials can't successfully portray the original. Hence, we decided to refrain from that method in order to take on a more abstract path which is more fitting to today's situation.

Kunming, having a mild climate all year around, is an ideal location to create an extensive landscape design. Our focus didn't stop at the site itself, though; we gave special attention to the roof. Taking reference from the surrounding subtropical nature and the Hani terraces, we created a green roof-garden. Most of the roof is layed-out like a small park and is reserved for the offices on the top floors. Right in the middle of the garden, however, there is a great exterior amphitheater with 1000 seats that can host big cultural events.

Art Studios: This segment contains A.V. labs as well as art studios. It is accessible through it's own elevator.

The first floor of the building is mostly open to the public and accommodates national culture and art displays, heritage protection spaces and a cafe. From here the building gets divided up into four parts: the exhibition center in the North, the art academy in the East, the theater in the South and the art studios in the West.

Exhibition Center: Each floor has different types of exhibition spaces for topics such as heritage, culture, art and photography. The top two floors, however, are occupied by a cinema complex which contains a 100 seat cinema, a 70 seat cinema and four 56 seat cinemas. This segment is accessible through two panorama elevators as well as the central escalators that are located between the exhibition segment and the theater segment. Art Academy: The lower floors contain an art school/education center while the top three floors contain volunteer offices and accommodation for the afore mentioned school. Theater: Located in this segment are: a medium-sized theater with 700 seats, suitable for dramas, dances, symphonies and other multi-functional activities; a small theater with 300 seats, suitable for theatrical performances and film viewing; a convention center and an amphitheater on the roof with 1000 seats. To be able to cope with the large flow of people at the beginning and at the end of a performance, four elevators were strategically located at two main entrances while additional support was created with the escalators in the center.

Site Organization The site organization is a result of the requirements about fire safety and natural lighting combined with considerations about the already existing parts of the campus. It is a carefully adjusted balance between the building heights, open spaces and accessibility to create a rational and functional design.

Exterior Spaces

Squares and Courtyards The combination of the central axis and the courtyards creates a sense of order and openess.

View The buildings are East/West oriented to optimize lighting and view. Roofgardens and green courtyards further improve the view.

Circulation The roof of the colonnade functions not only as roof-garden but also as a secondary mean of circulation.

Landscaping The base parts of the building as well as the courtyards functions as accessible green space to provide a comfortable learning environment

Facade Due to environmental and design functional requirements, we chose to use woven metal mesh curtains as our facade material. The curtains provide shading while at the same time don't obstruct the view. Furthermore, the moveable curtains only provide shading when it is needed and can be moved aside if more sunlight is required, and thus, adapting to different times of the day as well as different usages of the spaces.

Zhanjiang

Haikou

The Pearl River Delta is of global importance for it is a center of advanced manufacturing. It is also called the 9+2 which stands for the 9 Provinces, Guangdong, Fujian, Jiangxi, Hunan, Guangxi, Hainan, Sichuan, Yunnan and Guizhou, connected through the river plus the two autonomous regions of Macau and Hongkong. They, together, form today's largest high-tech manufacturing and development base. Therefore, it is of national as well as of international importance to further expand and improve the regions capabilities. Since 2003, the Chinese central government has programs to steadily improve the situation and the cooperation between these provinces.

149

Zhanjiang has the only deep water port in the Pearl River Delta, and at the same time, is located in the center of several major industrial zones of South China. Thus, the further development of the city is an obvious necessity as the city will become the country's leading port for metal ore, fertilizer and petrolium products. The city is on the verge of becoming one of China's most important distribution centers nationaly and internationaly.

Work Portfolio Damian Donze 2011-2014

City Background

The city includes 20'000 square kilometers of sea area which is rich in marine resources and marine life. Recently the marine economy of Zhanjiang has developed very fast with a growth rate of over 20% over the last three years. In 2012 the marine industry created a revenue of 123.75 billion RMB which puts it on the third place in Guangdong right behing Guangzhou and Shenzhen.

Work Portfolio Damian Donze 2011-2014

Zhanjiang is not only home to lots of folklore and culture, but is also renown for it's clean and green environment. The blue sky, the clean air and the clean water was the reason that the city was awarded to be one of the 10 most ecological cities of China. The prevalence of green area of the city further strengthen the feeling of nature inside the city especially when compared to other smog ridden concrete cities.

Harbour

In the new masterplan, 2005-2020, the Zhanjiang government tries to make the Haidong District the new city center. It is an area of 16 square kilometers and is opposite to the current city center on the East side of the bay. The plans for the development of the district include high-end commercial areas, administrative offices, leisure parks, tourist resorts, marinas as well as high-end office buildings. The next 5 years will see a great change in the district and will change the future image of the city dramatically.

151

The project is part of a large scale effort of the government to expand the city on the otherside of the bay. The development is set to start with the currently planned 16 square kilometers. However, the final plans are that the development will grow outwards from here and spread as far as the Potou District, covering as much as 228 square kilometers.

Site Planing

Inner Bay Site

Most of the landmark buildings will be positioned along the bay as well as along the "Inner Bay", and thus, maximazing the visibility from the Western part of the city. The landmark buildings include public buildings like sport stadiums/facilities, large scale office buildings as well as the super tall building of this project. The masterplan includes many green corridors to ensure a high level of comfort.

Site

The district is connected to the current city through the Bay Bridge. The new streets of the district are organized very efficiently with a grid of large high speed roads as well as a more dense grid of secondary main roads. This will ensure fluent travic for many years to come.

Site Background

The total land area of the site is 101'150m2. It includes a residential part which can utilize a FAR between 1.0-3.5 while the building density shouldn't be more than 25%. The FAR for the commercial and office part can be as high as 5.0 while the building density shouldn't be more than 60%. All in all, the project should have an area of about 500'000m2. The project must provide buildings for a fivestar hotel, a super tall building, commercial usages as well as a residential compound.

153

The surrounding of the project is planned to become a contemporary city center with many green areas, pubilc facilities and impressive office buildings.

Section Standard Floor We kept the floor area between 2200m2 and 2700m2 to create an average floor area of 2500m2 Height The standard floor height of the tower is 4.3m to ensure a high quality office space even after the deduction of the structure. The top floor reaches up to 300m while the top of the building reaches all the way up to 360m to form the visual center of the city.

Design Concept

SET SAIL The Architectural concept is derived from offshore sailing. It creates a connection to the city as an important Chinese port, but also, being the new center of the city, to stand for new wind in the city's economy. To set sail to a bright future.

Deng Xiao-Ping:

161

“Qingdao in the North and Zhanjiang in the South”

Zhou en-Lai:

“Zhanjiang is like a small Paris”

Chen Yi:

“Zhanjiang is the Geneva of the East"

Zhanjiang is one of the oldest ports and was part of the well known Silk Road

Work Portfolio Damian Donze 2011-2014

Design Description

Design Description 1. Intro The Zhanjiang New Area Project is located on the East side of the Golden Bay, opposite to the current city center of Zhanjiang, in the Haidong District. The project contains a super tall office tower with a height of 360 meters, a commercial complex with three smaller towers (5 star hotel, office and serviced apartments) and a residential complex. The super tall building is supposed to be a landmark building which is visible from all around the bay to signify the new city center. The total construction area of the project is 695’468m2, and hence, will have a major impact on the face of the new city. Together with further office towers in the North/East and the sports stadium in the South, the project will be a major corner stone of the new city center of Zhanjiang. 2. Site The site is located on the East shore of the Golden Bay in the city of Zhanjiang, Guangdong and has a total area of 101’131m2. It is positioned in the core area of the Haidong District which is planned to become the new city center. The site is surrounded in the East by the ocean, in the South by a variety of green areas, sports facilities and a sports stadium, in the West by new office building and in the North by a green corridor. It, thus, has a privileged position with lots of ocean and green area around it. The commercial functions are located along the bay to answer to the requirement of the project to be a landmark of the new city. The residential compound, on the other hand, is in the South-Eastern corner, more secluded and more protected from the city.

Facts and Figures

3. Super Tall Tower After studying 5 different versions in detail, we ended up with this version. The tower has a total height of 360 meters, 68 floors and a total construction area of 202’385m2. The standard floor height of the tower is 4.3m to ensure a high quality office space even after the deduction of the structure. We tried to keep the standard floor area at 2’500m2 while the bottom is more and the top is less. The floor plan is kept very simple with a core in the middle and flexible space surrounding it. This maximizes natural lighting and ensures good circulation through the building. To keep the vertical circulation fluent, we developed an intricate system of elevators. As in most tall buildings, the building has a base with commercial functions such as restaurants and stores as well as an exhibition center. The tower itself, though is dedicated entirely to offices except for the mechanical floors and the public observatory on the very top. The design takes inspiration from a sail and is a manifestation of the city’s long history as an important trade port. One could also say that it symbolizes the city setting sail into a successful future as the city is expected to become one of the most important ports of Southern China. The “sail” isn’t just ornamental, though, it also acts as a heat shield. Zhanjiang is located in the South of China, and is therefore prone to high temperatures. The “sail” completely covers the Southern part of the building with low-e glazing to considerably reduce the heat entering the building without sacrificing any view.
