The "CULTURE VERTEX CLUB" is located in the core area of Dongwu in Suzhou, China. The project is strategically positioned next to the Wanda Plaza in the southern part of the city, facing Suzhou Middle School and Suzhou Foreign Language School.
The main entrance features a front plaza with the core experience of "Natural Artistic Grand View." It stands as a rebellion against the hustle and bustle of the city, symbolizing a serene and poetic lifestyle and a unique sense of belonging. The modern and artistic porch combines the essence of classic aesthetics, including proportion, lines, light, shadow, and texture. It utilizes modern materials, new techniques, and a narrative spatial organization with ups and downs to restore order. With a unique sense of rhythm, it harmonizes the hearts of each resident.
The overall materials selected include gray and white stone and simulated bronze brushed stainless steel. The delicate lines of the metal, combined with the stable stone, complement each other, conveying a sense of calm spatial emotion and the natural atmosphere of the materials.
The facade follows the aesthetic of straight lines and incorporates elements of Suzhou-style architecture. Modern materials such as silver-white aluminum panels, imitation pearl blue multicolor paint, premium gray real stone paint, and textured glass are carefully selected and considered in the material and top details of the facade.
The entrance gate adopts a dome with symmetrical aesthetics, reflecting the etiquette of eight-fold homecoming and service standards comparable to star hotels. The materials used include Italian Prada green luxury stone paired with metal grilles, showcasing a grand and distinguished temperament that matches star hotels.
Ultimately, the design aims to restore the architecture to its natural and harmonious state, showcasing the "hidden luxury" of Eastern aesthetics and exuding a captivating sense of sophistication.
