Two Buildings in the Pottery Factory: Roof Structure of the Dragon Kiln and ICH Lounge. At the end of 2021, when the architect was invited by the chief planner of the project, the founder of Sanbao International Ceramics Art Village, the Distinguished Professor of Jingdezhen Ceramic University, ceramicist LI Jianshen, to visit the site of Doumu Pottery, the factory has been undergoing a comprehensive upgrade. The design brief we have received consisted of the construction and renovation of two buildings: the ICH Lounge for which the foundation had already been excavated and therefore the location of the building outline and its structures had been determined; and the asbestos tile roofed dragon kiln, in urgent need of renewal to satisfy the requirements of soundness and aesthetics for a roof structure and to accommodate new functions as well.
