5| SINO-FINNISH CULTURAL CENTRE NANJING, CHINA

INVITED COMPETITION - 2ND PRIZE (2016) ALA Architects

The Sino-Finnish Center represents cooperation between China and Finland in the fields of investment, economic trade, environmental sustainability, cultural tourism and social science research. ALA’s proposal represents an ecologically sustainable way of building cities. The key concept in the design is to think about the ecological impact of the entire life cycle of the development from pre-planning to demolition and recycling.

The design site is divided into two distinctive areas: a high-density, green-roofed hybrid city block utilising the best clean tech solutions available, and a purified, publicly accessible wetland park.

The wetland park, inspired by Finland’s landscape, acts as a contrast and complement to the urban block. The park will be used as a demonstration area for clean technologies, and will contain a network of small pavilions linked by a system of wooden piers. The park area also plays an important role in managing the rainwater overflow, and negotiating the impact of the large urban block.
