Majuqiao Innovation Hub
The Majuqiao Industrial Park Project shatters traditional paradigms for urban complex development, and inject the power of high-tech into industrial park economy. As a tech-innovation hub, it shoulders historic responsibility of urban economic development and scientific cultural growth, offering a spectrum of service functionalities. Taking “Industrial Park for Biotechnology and Internet of Things Integration” as its orientation, the industrial park focuses on businesses that integrates bio-tech with Internet of Things, delivering versatile product line architectures for the enterprises’ full life cycle.
Scheme 1
In terms of overall structure, the basic structure consists of “one axis, two centers, four gardens”. Office space, communication space and rest space interpenetrate each other, integrating office, leisure, social, life and other functions.
The design team endeavors to intertwine nature and technology through various approaches. Technically, the strategies contribute to environmental protection while curb the ecological footprints which are attributed to constructions. Plants serve to purify water and air, and the fusion of surrounding buildings and interior greenery brings the duality of technology and nature into the realm of aesthetics.
Scheme 2
Traditionally, industrial parks are geared towards cost-effective and highly efficient production models. Large areas of “barrack-like” and “matchbox” spatial layout is commonly used. Our scheme eschews the customary barrack-like layout of small buildings, open space are enclosed through the combination of small volume buildings, in addition a sunken plaza is incorporated into our proposal, thereby forming a variety of spatial experiences.
An ensemble of small-scale buildings enclose the diminutive inner square nestled among office buildings. All buildings are interlinked on the ground level, shared space for supporting facilities is available on the underground floor. Outdoor corridors such as escalators and balcony stairways are combined to enable a fluid link between indoor and outdoor spaces, thus generating intriguing areas. Strategic “cores” punctuate key regions to bolster inter-building communication, an energy flow within and outside the buildings is triggered, culminating in a smooth people flow circulation.
