Kirin Island Exhibition Center

Kirin Island

Kirin Island is an exhibition center in Jining, Shandong Province, China. The building forms the first phase of an industrial park.

The design follows the idea of a round sky and a square earth, so a square building holds a round courtyard. A frame-shear wall structure with a span of 18.6 metres creates indoor space without pillars. Overhangs of 10.3 metres on the north and south sides form semi-outdoor areas.

The architecture becomes a unity of positive and negative spaces. Like a snow-crystal structure that can be read as a pattern in its presence or absence of matter.
