ROTATION- Art Center

Academic: 2015 Spring// Individual work// Building Area: 19,000 m²// Location: Qingdao, Shandong, China
This art center is located between the education zone and the tourism zone in Qingdao. It tried to explore the relationship between the architecture and environment. This project mainly focuses on how to abstract some basic elements from the native culture and use the form to resolve the contradictions, which will create a recreational landmark for the city. Enlightened by the ocean wave, the design concept aims to display horizontal expansion and rotation of the space. When being exposed in the parallel exhibition space, visitors will experience different space sequence with various features and they can choose their own route freely due to the rotatory circulation. 
I grew up in Qingdao, which is surrounded by sea on three sides and by mountain on one side. My middle school is located in the hilly area where has a number of parallel streets with different height and different slope. Children always chase each other for fun on these sidewalks. When people choose a different height of the ramp to run, they will find the interest of "hide and seek" along with the sight block caused by the buildings on both sides of the street.
