Cultural Center . Zhanjiang


OMA

The Zhanjiang Cultural Center is envisioned as a series of separate buildings, each with a distinct design consistent with its function and providing its own identity, connected by a unifying element, a lattice. In this way, the design provides benefits of both separateness and consolidation.













As the most ambitious urban gesture in the proposal, the lattice serves a shading function, providing what is possibly the largest shaded outdoor space in all of Zhanjiang, aiming to transform what could typically be an impractical and exposed condition into one that provides a comfortable outdoor microclimate throughout the day.
With characteristic buildings and a unifying lattice, our design delivers on a commitment to bring programs together, bring people together and provide a solution that is representative of the changes Zhanjiang is undergoing, while at the same time introducing generous amounts of natural landscape, a microclimate and usable public spaces.
