Zigong Arts Centre
Sichuan, China
Project Scope: Design Proposal
Project Submitted: 2011
In collaboration with Cendes International
Drawing inspiration from the tradition and pride of ZiGong’s salt mining industry and the modernising city’s vibrant socio-cultural climate, the ZiGong Arts Centre is crystallised as a main pair of faceted pristine forms evoking the image of salt crystals. Apart from the identifiable massing, the programmes within the arts centre, with multiple open-air stages, both on water and set in natural environments, also aim to encourage the proliferation of the arts via the engagement of the public.
