Golden A' Design Award Winner 2021

This aerial view presents a contemporary multifunctional office complex characterized by a distinctive flowing serpentine form, scanning from background to foreground reveals layers of landscape and architecture, in the far distance extending across the upper portion of the image lies an open green field of grass resembling a meadow or lawn area bordered by rows of deciduous and coniferous trees creating a verdant backdrop of deep forest green, the middle ground is dominated by the building itself which takes the form of two interconnected S-curved volumes that spiral around each other creating a dynamic three-dimensional form, the building features extensive green roofs covered in maintained lawn grass that appears fresh and springtime green in color like new growth, these living roof surfaces are edged with crisp white bands approximately the width of a walkway that define the curving perimeter, below the roof edges glass curtain walls extend downward their surfaces appearing silvery and reflective catching afternoon light, the building creates two distinct courtyard spaces one larger kidney-shaped area at left and one smaller teardrop-shaped space at right where the volumes interlock, the foreground reveals the ground plane treatment with gray stone paving arranged in geometric patterns surrounding the building, young deciduous trees with sparse spring foliage punctuate the plaza areas, a roadway curves along the left edge with white lane markings visible, small vehicles appear parked in designated areas giving sense of scale, the overall impression suggests a warm afternoon with golden light arriving from upper left casting long shadows that emphasize the sculptural quality of the architecture, the atmosphere feels calm orderly and optimistic befitting a campus dedicated to health and scientific advancement, temperatures implied seem mild and pleasant suitable for outdoor gathering in the courtyard spaces

Zhengzhou Linkong biomedical park is divided into the South and the north according to its functions. The designer uses the East-West life axis in the middle to realize the North-South dialogue through the free walking curve, making the park a unified whole. It has built a new modular production center and a pilot production center in the north of the park. The core of the space uses the double helix structure to derive the vertical space combined with the central landscape. It pays homage to the most important source code of modern biomedical industry gene DNA.
