Fibonacci Spiral Parco industriale

Press Kit

Unique Properties

The site is surrounded with rivers that separate it into several islands. Among them the most appealing is the Dynamic Island in the center. Circular podium Sequences, with its special fluidity and consistent logics extending to the tower, makes the vitality core formally and functionally. Once constructed, the project will be the demonstration base of Shanghai intelligent medical innovation, creating more than 500,000 sqm working area for intelligent medicine subdivisions.

Dimensions & Packaging

The area of this project is 340000 sqm.

Production Technology

Concentrated formation make sure within 300 meters people can reach the Dynamic Island where restaurants, shopping malls, cafeterias, shalloon, party, fitness rooms and other functions spread over. Highly efficient organization avoids redundancy or waste of resources. Spiral sequences break the monotonous central-radial structure and connect all the islands through boulevards. The islands diversify the types of waterfront space and create free, formal and casual public spaces. The road net based on the Fibonacci spiral is planned for possibility of automatic drive which helps finish the last one kilometer in the campus.

Design Challenge

It is a great challenge to create a vibrant space on the outskirts of the city.

Research

The project is located in an entirely low-density area near SHTU. On condition that a successful urban design provides enough containers for the uncertainty of city activities of which the key lies in density, we ensure that an incomparable concentration center is predestinated on the low-rise background. The core provides various life services for the campus as well as surrounding residents including professors and students and meanwhile, it offers a public-oriented testing center and an exhibition center (laboratory heart) that works in coordination with Medical Big Data Group in the northwest (laboratory brain).

Inspiration

The inspiration comes from the Fibonacci spiral, a combination of order and elegance to the natural beauty of life as the intelligent medicine to the realm of life science. The spiral starts from the South Waterfront Headquarter Building at the center point, extends through rigid grids of the site, breaks the tedious commonplace, connects flourishing boulevards and embraces abundant public activities.

Project Duration

Design: 2018.04-2018.08, Shanghai

Operation Flow

Podiums on the Dynamic Island adopt a form of horizontal circulation. On the first floor is a testing center and an exhibition center where most services are provided by robots of telediagnosis and intelligent blood collection. On the second and third floor are offices, social space in the middle and concentrated area on the outer side, where research personnel can switch working mode freely and UAVs and robots on the passage are able to work smoothly.
