In contemporary China's urban renewal and renovation projects, how to find a workable and balanced solution is a major challenge for designers. In the renovation project of the Yangzhou Metallurgical Plant, the design team balanced the demands of multiple parties and rejuvenated the 61-year-old factory area based on reconstructing the value, in order to bring new vitality to the Yangzhou Industrial City.
Based on the features of the site, we proposed three core design strategies:
"The traces of time, the continuation of culture" – We retain the original architectural features, and use the traces of time to continue the urban industrial context in the space.
"Art intervenes to activate the new life" - We use art to rebuild time, integrate into the site through art installations, form a unique spatial atmosphere, and rebuild the cognition of community belonging.
"Nature link sustainable and eco-friendly " - in the form of nature, we link the relationship between people and eco-system, and shape a sustainable community that is symbiotic with nature, and it will be full of vitality.
We extracted two color elements as brick red and industrial gray from the unique wall of the original factory to echo the factory culture and blend into the environment.
The entrance is equipped with a stone and industrial-looking sign system. The waterscape is made of weather-resistant steel plate as the facade material, which complements the red bricks of the building facade. At the same time, the large waterscape completely reflects the building facade, which strongly improves the viewability of the original industrial site.
The land of the Yangzhou Metallurgical Plant was once a desolate industrial brownfield after the factory was relocated. After renovation and renewal, it became prosperous, linking people and nature, and realizing green and sustainable development.
The links between past and future have brought the old area to a rebirth again, so that the new lifestyle will not lose the emotional temperature, and the city's historical memory and spirit will last.
