How to regenerate the historical district in Beijing is the main issue drew in this project. Locating on the main axis of Beijing, Tianqiao District has long been an important area in the history. It used to a vibrate area famous for street art, but under the rapid urbanization it gradually grows into a slum.  Regenerating this area is inevitable and urgent.

Creating interior outdoor space is the core operation in this design. In order to fit into the urban context, this design took the ancient map of this area as the initial building lots, and then operated a series of wiping out and reorganization to fit in the function.

Continuous open space with shelter is the main idea. There is no clear sense of inside and outside. Bridges and stages connect every single building together with a huge glass canopy overhead to prevent rains and winds. People can easily get around to check different performing. Except the performing, there will be some other supporting commerce like restaurants, and a lot of relating space like galleries, art stores, rehearsal rooms, artist studios.
