WUHAN SMART CITY


Wuhan, China


WUHAN SMART CITY

Design Date: 2020-2021


Principal Architect: Ma Ning


Design Team: Wangying, Ruijing Sun, Jiezhong Yu, Dongyuan Guo


Project Location: Wuhan, China

Wuhan Jiangxia District, where Tangxun Lake, the largest urban lake in Asia is located, is entering a period of rapid development. In a few years, it will turn from a village to an industrial park and eventually into an urban area. The main task of our project is to solve and alleviate the conflicts caused by the rapid iteration of demands through the design.

The complex within the site has been abandoned for many years. To the north is a horseshoe-shaped warehouse building, and to the south are side-by-side dilapidated factories. Although they have long lost their original functions, they have formed a urban theme under this geographical location.

The structure of the ribbon, like the shape of water ripples, flows into the distance. On the inside of the corrugated skeleton are petal-like secondary structural modules that hang translucent membrane materials. The transparency of membrane material is gradually changing from the edge of the roof to the center on the overall layout. Different softness of light and shadow filtered by membrane materials with different transparent properties dance in the courtyard.
