Production Technology
Elongated buildings form a community, with each functional block placed in different elongated buildings. They are separated by an inner courtyard, which allows the surrounding natural environment to penetrate into the community. A large space like the "People's Diary" exhibition hall is achieved by connecting two long buildings on a flat surface.
Design Challenge
Through the study of the texture of the site itself and the space of traditional rural residential houses, the architecture presents a form of functional space surrounding the courtyard space. This form not only satisfies the daily activities of users, but also allows for full interaction between the internal space of the building and nature. Construct a rhythmic rhythm of "courtyard house" interweaving, dissolve the accumulation of large volume functional redundancy, and weave the "breathing" rhythm of the building itself in the three-dimensional vertical space. The roof, as the fifth facade, has always held an important position in the building. By combining roofs in various ways, and vice versa, enriching the shape and contour of buildings. Backed by the mountains, the landscape of the nearby mountains, composed of layers of tiles, is layered with the true green mountain scenery. Architecture can harmonize with nature and solidly integrate into the authentic rural life.
Project Duration
Project duration did from February 2022 to June 2023. Location is Yahuang Village, Shengzhou city, Zhejiang Province,China
Operation Flow
After the large-scale building was dismantled and reorganized, each individual building was opened up layer by layer in the form of a large mountain. Through the setting of corridors, terraces, and gray spaces, users can walk between the interior of the building and the courtyard. During the journey, there are hidden and visible elements, as well as ups and downs, and a variety of melodies and emotions.
Research
Yahuang Village is the birthplace of "People's Diary". More than twenty years ago, Mr Li Chunyang, who was then the Party Secretary of Yahuang Village, encountered villagers seeking help during a visit. He took out his diary and carefully wrote down the wishes of the villagers. "The Diary of the People" was born in the fields of Yahuang from then on. The "People's Diary" with the characteristics of "visiting hundreds of families, understanding their emotions, solving their difficulties, connecting their hearts, handling their affairs, and achieving their prosperity" has gone from Yahuang to the whole country. The project revolves around "People's Diary" and is a multifunctional complex. Its main function is the "People's Diary" themed exhibition hall. Other functions include a convenient service center based on the theory of "People's Diary" for practice, classrooms, conference rooms, and supporting hotels for government personnel to visit, and a reception and distribution center for other tourists.
