01 STILL INTO WATER THE RESEARCH AND APPLICATION OF THE RECONSTRUCTION OF EXISTING ARCHITECTURES IN THE EXHIBITION AREA

DRIVING FORCE OF NEW INDUSTRY DEVELOPMENTV As China's Special Economic Zone, national economic center and international city, Shenzhen has been at the forefront of urban industrial renewal and development. In the historical process of urban renewal and optimization, better land will be endowed with the function of both economic and social value, so as to make the best use of and cooperate with the continuous improvement of urban traffic network. Bao'an District, as the target city of "old district new construction", its coastal area has been gradually updated. Gushu sewage treatment plant occupies an excellent position around the airport wharf and near the bridge of Shenzhong passage. The transformation of function and architecture is the trend of the times. THE MEMORY OF INDUSTRIAL CULTURE For the reconstruction of existing buildings, now it is not simply demolished. However, based on the substantial changes in function, it is inevitable that most of the sewage treatment facilities will be eliminated. Retaining the urban memory of the sewage treatment plant in architecture is also a kind of protection and attention to industrial culture. While retaining the symbolic geometric appearance of biological tank and sedimentation tank, the key point of this scheme is to retain and give new significance to water storage, water flow, and the form of the interaction between water and building. The image of the new tanks overlaps with that of the old tanks, which is closer to life in the exhibition park, arousing people's thinking and commemoration of industrial culture. NEW EXHIBITION FORMS Different from the traditional exhibition hall, the exhibition hall rebuilt on the existing building itself has the spatial and morphological characteristics of the original building, and while adding restrictions, it provides new ideas for exhibition planning.
