INAKI ADING AIRPORT

Location: City of Daocheng, Sichuan
Status: Completed
Size: 15,000 sqm

Inaki Ading Airport is located on Hizi Mountain of Inaki plateau where is made up of Minya Konka and Haizi Mountain, and is covered by glacial rock basins and down-faulted basins all over the surface of the ground. It is known as the “Inaki ancient ice cap” because of its largest ruins of ancient ice in Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau. The elevation of the airport is 4411 meters, which is the civilian airport with the highest elevation in the world. The overall building area is approximately 15465 m², including a terminal, air traffic control building, freight warehouse, office building, fire control building, gas station, and other supplementary buildings. The general building area of the terminal is 8796m², and it is officially open to use since September 2013.

Poetry is the expression of our mood, and poetry comes from our natural feelings. Quoting from Frank Lloyd Wright who is a great American architect, “Nature is my manifestation of God. I go to nature every day for inspiration in the day's work. I follow in building the principles which nature has used in its domain.” On the desolate surface of Haizi Mountain, it has distinct landform that is similar to the lunar surface. We did our best to minimize damage of the land surface.

For overall layout, we introduced the most representative culture locally - Khata. As the resource of our creativity, the architectural complexes are formed into two surrounded ribbons. We picture the terminal as an UFO, which has unique modeling, high-tech texture, and lightsome architectural style. Auxiliary buildings are incorporated into the distinct surface of Haizi Mountain, so that it not only decreases the damage to environment and respects local culture and nature, but also take advantage of native materials and plants in order to reduce the loss of heat and energy. When you look down at the terminal, it seems like an UFO is seated on a flying khata. These contrasts between future and nature, light and heavy create strong visual impact, so as to achieve the effect scenic area.

After the establishment of Inaki Ading Airport, the flight time will be reduced to 1 hour between Inaki and Chengdu. It has also created a formation of Shangri-La ring with the airports of Yunnan and Panzhihua, sharing “Shangri-La’s soul”, “the last pure land on earth”.

Sanya Lanhai Hotel

Location: Sanya, Hainan, China
Size: 16,648 sqm
This project is located in Sanya, Hainan, where is next to Luling Street on the north, adjacent to Haiyun Street on the south, and one block away from Dadonghai wharf. A 4-storey old building will be demolished, and a 9-storey modern and elegant hotel with 158 guest rooms will be developed instead. We make good use of the amazing ocean view and advantageous terrain for the main building, in order to make every guest enjoy the seascape from different rooms. Wavy balcony is applied in our design. With blue sky and sea, the white building stands on the green hillside, which looks like a sailing cruise ship. The set of building elevation can reduce the earthworks to the maximum extent while making a full use of available underground space (as the air-raid shelter). We try to keep guest rooms head south and face to the ocean as possible. We take advantage of natural sunshine and ventilation openings by applying the open exterior-corridor type layout, so as to achieve the design goal of energy savings and low-carbon environmental protection. The entrance square is situated on the west of the main building, connecting to the urban green belt on both sides of Luling Street. The main building is like open arms that encircles the entrance square, which creates a welcome atmosphere. The east of the hotel is a landscape platform for leisure that allows guests to enjoy the beautiful seascape. A pool without boundary next to the platform can also make guests feel an association between platform and sea. The entrance square associates with landscape platform through the hotel lobby, which generates the connection between landscapes and buildings. We try our best to preserve the original natural green as much as possible, in order to reflect the landscape concept of the integration between artificial works and Mother Nature.
