It is a exploration of sustainable exhibition construction. The entire exhibition hall revolves around the core spatial behavior of "wandering". Pathways weaving through three distinct volumes guide the visitor's tour and connect the serene spaces representing "sound", "light", and "water". The three volumes, arranged in a staggered manner in the shape of normal and inverted pyramids, form an "outer corridor and inner canyon" spatial structure. The space that overhangs outwards creates the "Sound Valley" theater and the "Water Valley" space on the inside.

This mutual internal and external relationship ensures the authenticity of space and form. The exterior facade showcases the sintered stone surface supported by a wooden structure, which protrudes outwards and connects with the beam-on-foundation via steel cables. The spatial and mechanical relationship in the entire design is built upon cross-sections. Our goal is to attain unity between form and force from another perspective. The rich form we aspire to present in the design is the unity of space, structure, and scene.

Therefore, addressing the relationship between force and form becomes an inevitable consideration in space creation. Consequently, the "space" and "scenario" generated from considerations of cross-sections naturally become the logical foundation for structure formation. Each outwardly extending space surface is pulled together by tie beams at the top, creating a volumetrically stable inverted pyramid. Here, the visible "form" and the invisible "force" produce an intriguing juxtaposition. After establishing a unified system of space, structure, and scenario, we hope that the construction will also respond to the "macro system" of the structure, seeking to minimize unnecessary embellishments and slash construction costs through CNC machining technology.

Therefore, small components such as wooden parts generated from CNC machines, conventional batches of metal parts, and customized batches of metal parts that are pieced together to form the exterior facade, may evolve into various forms. Intended as a sustainable design endeavor, the guiding design approach, featuring small components, mass production, and highly mechanized production processes, can systematically form an entirety using scattered parts, decrease costs, and achieve efficiency and recyclability.

At the beginning of the design, we took spatial cross-sections as the focal point of our consideration, rather than the traditional flat functionality. This thinking model aligns with the logic envisioned by James Frazer Stirling, who started from cross-sections to liberate design from the confines of flat functionality. The construction of the complete force system results in the embryonic form of outwardly cantilevered spatial relationships, evoking a sense of urgency akin to traversing a "canyon" across diverse spatial segments inside and outside.

This gives rise to the sense of contradiction between the "instability" in the segment and the "stability" in the overall system, offering yet another captivating juxtaposition. To be precise, looking from the perspective of cross-sections, crafting an internal stepped theater was initially essential to achieve unity and authenticity in the relationship between the "inside" and "outside". Hence, a space resembling a "bowl" and outwardly inclined "rock walls". The moderate volume allows for the establishment of a structure pulled together by tie beams in the middle, leading to the initial spatial relationship characterized by layers enveloping outwardly.

The imposing sense created by the outer rim and surface of the "bowl" echoes the imagery of a mined canyon. The interior reveals a hollow space, resonating with the exterior shape of the "canyon". This enables users to encounter varied spatial experiences across different scales and scenarios. The three symbols signifying the fundamental elements of "sound", "light", and "water", in addition to the installations or sculptures in the design, are generated from the basic geometric symbol of a regular hexagon.

The three installations- the "Sound Horn", the "Flowing Monument", and the "Cut Light Cone", correlate with diverse scenarios, intending to instill tranquility in viewers utilizing the basic forms. The "Sound Horn", a sizable speaker crafted from sintered stones, fuses acoustics into its shape, capable of geometrically magnifying the sound at the end. It can also function as background lighting for performers, establishing a harmonious design with the performance stage on the ground. The "Flowing Monument" is a pointed monument cut open by three cascading water streams.

Its nearly vertical slope aligns with the slope of the interior space and the arch-shaped doorway. Depending on a slight slope and liquid tension, the water naturally flows downward. The "Cut Light Cone", also originating from regular hexagons, gives off laser beams from narrow, cracked openings. The laser interacts with the smoke filling the space and produces the Tyndall Effect and a "plane of light" from a cut cylinder, evoking a mysterious ambiance and representing our continual exploration of the "unknown territory" in design.

While this is a display space placed in the exhibition center, it is customary to design a space within another space into a one-time scene. In theory, considerations for weather resistance and structural issues may be unnecessary. However, at the beginning of the design, we regarded it as an independent building to leave some room to maneuver for subsequent recycling and expansion. Thus, we extensively deliberated on the integrity of the building structure and its weather resistance (While all structures inside the venue cannot exceed 50% ceiling coverage to ensure water sprinkling and fire extinguishment, the roof structure and requirements for waterproofing and thermal insulation can be modified and expanded in design if the structure is placed outdoors.) After the exhibition, the surface will be transformed into bookshelves, pavilions, or architectural surfaces, potentially turning into a community book kiosk bathed in afternoon sunlight, a bookshelf filled with donated books in a corner of a rural school, or a maintenance facade for a deteriorating wall of an old building to be renovated.
