Location: Wuhan, China.

Architect: Kris Lin International Design.

The input describes a show and sales space that integrates architectural, interior, FF&E, and landscape design to create a show and experience area like an art museum. The theme of water is used to convey the relation between water, architecture, and nature through a transparent concept. A luminous water curtain wall is designed for the exterior elevation of the architecture, consisting of LED light strips that look like running water and are reflected in the water pond. The water curtain wall has two surfaces, one on the exterior elevation and the other on the interior background wall. A large pool is designed in front of the architecture, giving the impression that the building is floating on the water. A 50-meter corridor connects the entrance of the sales to the interior space, passing a 16-meter-high entrance of light marble wall.
