Suzhou Taihu Tourism Center
Location: Suzhou
Area: 239,5000 sqm
Client: Suzhou Taihu Tourism Board
Status: Schematic Design
As a major gateway to the planned Suzhou Taihu Tourism zone, the project aims to inscribe the different flows through the project as a way to open up an introverted site and maintain connectivity on all sides of the lot. Different zones of programme (tourist information and transit, hotels and commercial, offices, etc.) are strung together by a raised pedestrian platform and a proposed light rail transit system. The different programmes are also articulated by distinctive roof forms, heights and building types, to resonate with the aquatic and topographic systems that surround the site, giving the visitor a layered, multivalent experience as they move through the tourist center.
