Medical Building Project: Obstetrics & Gynecology Hospital of Fudan University, Qingpu Branch, Shanghai
Architects: Tongji Architectural Design (Group) Co. (TJAD)
LOPO Façade Materials: Wavy-textured Terracotta Facades (Total 10,000 SQM)
This century-old hospital is the first maternity hospital in China and is affectionately known as the "Red House Hospital" by Shanghai residents due to its red roof and red brick façade. This project is its new branch located in the new town area of Zhujiajiao, Qingpu District, Shanghai.
To translate the architect's vision of a softly curved façade, LOPO custom-made wavy-textured terracotta panels whose cross-section are designed as an oblique triangle, yielding a unique façade effect through interlacing and layered installation.
