Project Description
This building, a private clubhouse and gallery for a high-end residential development in the Shenzhen Bay area, is conceived as a composition of two intersecting masses. The first volume, located to the north, is an open, double height gallery space with generous light and views. The second volume, a longer and lower mass to the south, incorporates most of the building program and is defined by a more solid façade that promotes a sense of privacy and dignified calm. The two masses are unified by a perforated copper façade that lends warmth to the building, controls views and light via perforations, and adds visual texture to the project’s refined massing.
