Boulder Park / Xisui Design

韩爽 - HAN Shuang — Mon, 08 Sep 2025 00:00:00 +0000

In the 13,000-square-meter community park, we use the natural material of large boulders —representing eternity— as the core design element of the garden, naturally integrating with the functional and experiential activities. For example, boulders lying over a sandpit can be transformed into climbing and resting play structures; stones in the shallow creek can become part of the water play installation. And the massive rock cave adventure space is creatively realized by the increasingly advanced 3D-printed concrete technology.

Qilu Hospital of Shandong University Emergency Medical Building / MENG Achitects

Collin Chen — Sat, 01 Jul 2023 02:00:00 +0000

Qilu Hospital of Shandong University is a comprehensive Grade A tertiary hospital under the supervision (administration) of the National Health Commission (NHC), and the leading party and main employer of the first national medical centers jointly established by the NHC and the provincial government. Founded in 1890, the hospital is located in the Lixia historical conservation area of Jinan City. As an affiliated hospital and teaching hospital of Shandong University, it had long been bothered by the original planning layout that could no longer meet the current needs of medical treatment, teaching, scientific research, etc. In this context, the design of the Qilu Hospital of Shandong University Emergency Medical Building (the Project) was kicked off in 2020. The project is an 800-bed medical complex for medicine, teaching, and research, including functions of emergency medicine, diagnosis and treatment in internal medicine, imaging center, scientific research and teaching, medical laboratory, etc. The buildings are in a twin-tower layout, with the north tower for administration and scientific research, the south tower for medical treatment, the podiums for demonstrative teaching, canteen, emergency medicine, imaging, intensive care unit (ICU), operating room, etc., and the basement for garage and MEP rooms. Upon completion, the project is expected to further promote the integrated development of Qilu Hospital of Shandong University in medicine, teaching, and research, and set an example for building the national medical center. Due to a tight site area and complex terrain, the project has a high FAR and high density, which, coupled with the hospital renovation and expansion, caused many complications and conflicts. Therefore, how reconnecting the large hospital with the urban fabrics through design, creating a friendly and harmonious urban interface, and implanting the giant medical complex into urban public life, became a major difficulty and challenge in design. In this regard, the design team decided to always keep in mind the design goal, i.e. to create an open, efficient, and humanistic hospital in symbiosis with the city.

Escape from the metropolis
The clients are a young couple, both of whom are designers. They grew tired of the plethora of urban issues which plague Beijing, much like any other major metropolis around the world. They decided to move to Jinan, a secondary city in China, which offered more space and a lower cost of living. Our first meeting together occurred before the approaching era of the pandemic, and the husband told me that for them it was not important to be based in any particular city as their work required them to travel often both domestically and abroad. Their new house would become both their home and office.

Jinan Changzhuang Church / Archipoetry Studio

Yu Xin Li — Thu, 29 Apr 2021 00:00:00 +0000

One day back to last September, I was thinking about the beam and pillar again, then wrote down the poem above. Beam and pillar, is there really a substantial difference? I feel there is a blurred boundary. Just like wall and roof, door and window, or bucket arch and arch, to me, they are literally the same. Jinan Changzhuang Church is located in Changzhuang Village,a remote place in the countryside of Jinan, China. The church is situated in the center of a forest and crops which are naturally segregated from the village.

HEYTEA Store at the Mixc / DAS Lab

Collin Chen — Thu, 21 May 2020 23:00:00 +0000

Human DNA is a dynamic structure composed of two strands that coil around each other. From microcells to the macro world, it's such a cycle that enables the continuation of human life and spirit. It also explains the existence of crop circle, vortex, and galaxy, where the inward spiral movement leads to the reconstruction of outward order. How to reinterpret this phenomenon through space and to think outside the box of contemporary art has become a new theme that DAS Lab and HEYTEA work to explore.
