Golden A' Design Award Winner 2022
Verdant canopy of mature deciduous trees creates a natural repoussoir frame through which QIDI DESIGN GROUP's Yunyang in Huanan Exhibition Center emerges as a pristine geometric intervention within an orchestrated landscape of exceptional compositional sophistication, the architectural volume presenting itself as a luminous white rectangular mass with extensive floor-to-ceiling glazing that establishes a dialogue between built form and organic environment through calculated transparency and reflection. The compositional architecture employs a masterful S-curve pathway rendered in pale grey stone that serpentines through the foreground, leading the eye from lower left through carefully manicured hedging toward the building's entrance, this sinuous circulation route providing dynamic contrast against the orthogonal precision of the structure itself. Chromatic relationships establish a refined triadic harmony: the viridian and hooker's green of layered vegetation ranging from ground cover ferns through sculpted boxwood mounds to towering tree canopies, the cool neutral whites and warm-tinted illumination emanating from within the pavilion, and the cerulean to lavender gradient of twilight sky visible through gaps in the foliage. Lighting conditions capture the magical blue hour transition when interior artificial illumination achieves equilibrium with diminishing natural light, warm amber glows from within the building creating intimate pockets of radiance against the cooling exterior atmosphere. Spatial construction demonstrates sophisticated layering: the immediate foreground occupied by feathery fern fronds and low groundcover, the middle ground articulated by the serpentine pathway bordered by rounded hedging masses and illuminated edge details that trace golden lines along planting bed perimeters, and the architectural focal point positioned at ideal middle distance to allow appreciation of both landscape and building in harmonious relationship. The textural dialogue proves particularly accomplished, contrasting the organic irregularity of tree bark, leaf clusters, and natural vegetation against the machine-precision of glass curtain walls, smooth white architectural surfaces, and the rhythmic linearity of stone pavers. Edge behavior throughout maintains exceptional sophistication, the building's crisp geometric silhouette providing necessary visual anchor against the soft, diffused edges of surrounding plantings, while the illuminated pathway borders create a mediating line quality that bridges natural and constructed realms.
The water line has been turned on and shifts through the whole site plan, shifts the emphasis the water history culture of Dan yang from commercial to social connecting to the nature. The mirror water courtyard accessible public open space to variability of activities.The results to encourage visitors to have memorable through the enjoyment of the diverse community. Art sculptures light up the communal atmosphere. The experience of the integration of tradition and modernity, is shuttle in nature, a journey chasing the light.
