Research

The initial research started from the history of Linyi to the city`s daily life culture. Linyi has a long history of the kite flying culture. The architectural concept is been inspired by this unique renowned culture. It was been interpreted into architectural elements throughout the landscape, exterior, interior, and down to the wayfinding. Surrounding by the buildings, the inner central park unifies the existing urban landscape and integrates cultural spaces in the vicinity into one.

Inspiration

Linyi is a historically prominent city with more than 3000 years of history. We try to connect this history with contemporary urban life. Along the existing urban axis, a three dimensional park was created stretching across blocks serve as the anchor for leisure activities and life of the complex. The facade inspiration came from the local culture of kite flying both the form and the movement in flight and interpreted it throughout the landscape, exterior, interior, and down to the wayfinding.
