The design of this cultural center is inspired by the majestic peaks of nature, aiming to present the power and rhythm of mountain ranges through architectural language. The building's facade features curves and flowing lines, resembling layers of mountain peaks that rise one after another, showcasing the grandeur of the landscape and the continuation of life. The entire form extends through organic curves, breaking away from traditional rigid structures to create a layered, flowing appearance. It not only reflects the power of natural mountains but also embodies the limitless potential of the exhibition space.
The building's form is based on the structural principle of a nine-grid layout, with nine square grids interwoven in space. At each intersection, varying heights break the monotony of the flat plane, creating undulating spatial volumes. This design strengthens the sense of layered mountains and creates unique spatial experiences at each junction.
The interior space emphasizes freedom and flow, breaking away from traditional functional separations. Through curved walls and an open layout, it fosters a natural, fluid sense of space. The walls extend in soft curves, isolating and connecting different exhibition areas, allowing each part of the space to seamlessly integrate with the next. The fluidity and flexibility of the space allow visitors to discover new surprises at every corner, as if immersed in a constantly expanding, unconstrained natural environment.
The overall design conveys a harmonious relationship between humanity and nature. Through the symbolic meaning of mountains and the fluidity of the architectural space, the exhibition hall is not only a venue for displaying art and culture but also a vibrant space where every visitor can feel the power and beauty of nature.
