Text description provided by the architects. The Red Box is located at the foot of Red mountain, Naning, which is also in the Hongchuang park designed by Mix architecture. With the forest surrounding Red mountain, the sculptural volume of the Red Box makes it unique. The Red Box is made up of red concrete. "Red" responds to the environment, which has three different meanings. First, the Red Box responds to the "red" of chronological memory. Hongchuang PARK, which is formerly known as Nanjing Combat Machinery Factory. Nanjing Combat Machinery Factory was founded in the 1950s and has experienced vigorous development since the founding of New China. The "red" memory has accompanied the growth of several generations. Secondly, in response to the "red" of the original red brick building of the Hongchuang PARK factory area, Mix Architecture decided to make the Red Box a unique building with the same rhythm as the factory.
