Shenzhen Natural History Museum

The Natural History Museum covers an area of 42,000 square meters and is located in Pingshan District, Shenzhen, adjacent to the picturesque Yanzi Lake. The Natural History Museum landscape design aims to bring together the vibrant riverfront park and open space network to the north of the site and the renewed urban community to the south. As such, the landscape design language has been carefully attuned to reflect the powerful River Delta concept that was formed during the competition while also carrying this concept out into the surrounding community in a way that compliments the key strategies and functions of the larger urban development framework. The result is a new destination that is both global in scope and ambition while also reflecting a fine grain.
