The goal is to convey the spirit of riding the waves and breaking through adversity. The architects skillfully incorporated the image of a sail into the exterior design to symbolize the fight against adversity, which is highly appreciated by the client. The double skin wall structure shows different looks as the sunlight changes. The clear texture of the clinker planks under the light shows a dynamic visual effect, making the building an eye-catching point at the corner and making it a landmark reception center.
The clinker plank not only provides the technical convenience of no-demolition formwork, saving labor and time but also produces a unique sparkle, which complements the building's design theme of a boat riding the waves. This application demonstrates the architect's ability to transform ordinary experience into inspiration, as well as the harmonious integration of the building with natural elements.
