01 Preamble
The Chiatai Qingchunbao Production and R&D Headquarters is located in Deqing Moganshan Hi-Tech Industrial Development Zone. The first phase is a built production park, which has been put into operation before 2022. The second phase is a comprehensive park, including two new production workshops for oral liquid and injection and a new headquarter R&D office building.
02 Double "L" planning layout to energize the site
The project site is a four-sided rectangle, the north side for the first phase of the park has been built, and the south side is for the new second phase of the park. In the original planning scheme, due to the division of production and R & D function, A workshop and B workshop and R & D office building are set left and right. It is completely cut off. On the premise of not changing the standard process plane of the workshop, we shift workshop B to form an "L" shaped complex with workshop A, which intensifies the flow of goods and at the same time creates a more abundant land for the new R&D office building, and the two of them become a double "L" shaped semi-circumscribed layout. By adjusting the architectural layout, functional flow and overall landscape re-planning, the design team realizes the harmonious coexistence of various functional zones, transforming the original relatively separated individuals into places, and stimulating the vitality of the site.
03 Exterior corridors as elements of spatial connectivity
We want to stimulate the flow of people in the industrial park in a more proactive manner. The eye-catching exterior corridor serves as an element that not only wraps around the building, but also connects the production workshop and the R&D office building. In the early morning, the workers in the front line production workshop and the researchers in the R&D office building will meet on this corridor to start a new day together; in the evening, they will say goodbye here to share their joys and harvests; the indoor workers will come out of the closed production workshop and take a rest on the roof terrace overlooking the park ...... The accessible connecting corridor serves as a channel for activities and a tool for connecting spaces, and is a container for collision and communication between people.
04 Vertical placement strategy
Considering the shallow surface rock layer of the site, the cost of digging down the basement is high and affects the construction period. The design solves the daily commute of more than 300 cars parking demand all through the bottom of the ground elevated floor; the overhead garage with the gradual convergence of bottom effectively controls three-dimensional parking above the second floor to reduce the number of ramps. The only car ramp is set in the periphery of the building, which is semi-open to allow a more comfortable experience for car travelers.
