Dahua Park City

Exhibition for Shanghai Puspace Architectural Design Co.

The visual experience of the building is closely related to the sight lines. How to hide and expose is the key that runs through the whole project. The narrow road that leads to the site is turned into a tranquil twisting path, which creates a varying experiences along the way. The building adopts complicated curved forms, which outline multi-level spaces. The interior circulation route creates a spatial sequence and embraces the lake view to provide pleasing experiences.

Unique Properties

The project is located between mountains and a lake, which is the particular of this project. The main building body is stilted, making it appear like a fish. The multi-layer terraces and the long French windows maximize the view to the surrounding landscape, and help blend the architecture into the environment. The visual experience of the building is closely related to the sight lines. How to "hide" and "expose" is the key that runs through the whole project.

Production Technology

To complete the curved facade more effectively, we selected triangular flat panels in different sizes and stitched them together to form an integrated curved surface. As each aluminum plate has to be connected with another five ones, the biggest challenge was how to splice the neighboring plates perfectly. The construction team combined two triangular plates into a unit to minimize the difficulties and speed up the construction.

Design Challenge

There are also huge difficulties in the design and construction of curved curtain walls. We had to deal with the processing and installation of 2,276 similar but different panels, each of which has different perforation patterns. These holes present looming flow lines on the facade. In addition, lighting was another critical problem.

Project Duration

Start time:2018 Completion time:2020 Location:Panlong District, Kunming City, Yunnan Province

Operation Flow

The construction involved close collaboration among multiple parties. A digital architectural model was created for clearer division of construction work, and a 1:1 local sample wall was constructed to study how to stitch aluminum panels together perfectly. The construction team combined every two triangular panels into a unit, and finally realized a perfect collage of 3,276 panels for the curved surfaces.

Research

Not only should the entire design meet the current needs for use, but also it needed to present the image of the whole area. The site has very complicated conditions. It's surrounded by shanty towns that have not been demolished and the existing buildings on the western cliff. It has an elevation difference of 10 meters, and the only road leading to the site is small and cramped. However, once the site is elevated, it can provide a panoramic view of both the lake and mountains nearby.

Inspiration

The design of the project was inspired by the intriguing and beautiful scenery around the site. The project is a part of the urban design of Baisha Lake Area, so it needs to take consideration into the timeline of the current and future urban construction of the area. It has to meet current functional demands while also representing the image of the whole area.
