武进莲花会展中心和人民公园位于江苏常州蓬勃发展的南部地区—武进的中心。莲花会展中心和占地3.5公顷的人民公园是当地的文化中心和文明地标，展示了当地政府的发展野心及对未来的展望。

该项目旨在打造独特而多样的市民活动场所和公共空间。莲花会展中心是在一个位于人工湖下的二层市政设施的基础上进行扩建的。建筑内包含部分规划部门以及新的展览厅、会议室和会议中心。

Located in the heart of Wujin, the burgeoning southern district of Changzhou, Jiangsu PRC, the Lotus Building and the 3.5 hectare People’s Park has been designed to act as a cultural anchor and civic landmark – establishing a symbolic commitment of the local government’s ambitions and future aspirations.

The brief called for a public building and park that would embody a unique variety of civic nodes and public spaces. The Lotus Building is an addition to an existing double storey subterranean municipal facility situated beneath an existing artificial lake. The building houses parts of the planning bureau as well as new exhibition halls, meeting rooms and conference centres.

会展中心如同盛开的莲花，外形特点十分鲜明，为武进—这座可能淹没在中国快速发展城市海洋中的普通城市增添一抹独特的色彩。会展中心旨在激发市民的参与性，与社区建立紧密联系，吸引民众驻足停留，进而促进地区的繁荣。这个新地标期望为整个城市带来长久的活力和深度，为当地建筑设立新向标，并促进城市发展。

The physical form of the building has been determined by the need to create a structure which has a distinctive presence; a character piece in a city can be in parts anonymous like so many other rapidly developing Chinese cities. The development, ultimately, seeks to generate participation, to build an ownership of place that builds ties to the community and entices its people to stay and flourish and not to be drawn away. This landmark aims to bring longevity and depth to the community; to set a new standard for architectural ambition in the area and stimulate further urban development.

该项目被设计成从湖中自然升起的、有人居住的雕塑。参观者从底下进入大教堂般的启示空间。不论外部的天气如何，闪耀的色彩和光线都会营造出明亮而令人愉悦的室内氛围。花瓣的钢筋结构采用了渐变颜色，只在边缘呈现出深色调。室内外表皮则使用手工铺就的白色、米黄色和不锈钢等多种六角马赛克瓷砖饰面，形成无缝连接的墙体，studio505设计的7米高的吊灯悬挂在中央顶端，成为了吸引眼球的焦点。

Conceived as an inhabited sculptural form, emerging naturally from the lake; the visitor enters from beneath and is greeted with a cathedral like revelation of space. Colour and light combine and illuminate, creating a bright and uplifting interior atmosphere, no matter the weather. Transitioned and graded colour is applied to the side of the petal ribs, creating a deep hue only at the edge of the structure. Hand laid and varied white, beige and stainless steel hexagon mosaic tile finishes cover all external and internal surfaces; merging seamlessly to create a continuous form with studio505’s bespoke 7m high suspended chandelier at the apex, becoming the focus of attention, inside and out.

该项目利用了湖底的地热能，可最大程度地减少能耗。 湖水和湖底基础可对会展中心及湖下两层建筑的空调系统进行预冷（夏天）和预热（冬天）。该项目综合采用多种节能模式，其中包括天然通风，以及通过湖面蒸发冷却来启动主体结构中的烟囱效应。

The project has been designed to minimize energy usage- with over 2500 geothermal piles driven through the base of the artificial lake, The entire lake water mass and ground beneath is utilized to pre-cool (summer) and pre-warm (winter) the air conditioning systems for both the lotus and the two storey building beneath the lake. The project is also mixed mode and naturally ventilated and utilizes evaporative cooling from the lake surface to drive a thermal chimney within the main flower pod.

studio505的设计打造了一个充满活力的公共领域：在夜间灯光系统的照射下，建筑呈现出莲花般的天然色彩，保持20秒后慢慢地变化至下一幅图景。莲花会展中心和人民公园成为武进最受欢迎的地标之一，为城市的社会及文化生活做出持久的贡献。

Studio 505’s design creates a vibrant public realm; key to which is a night lighting system devised to hold a series of changing natural colour combinations for 20 seconds before slowly transitioning to the next scene over 10 seconds. The Lotus Centre and People’s Park has become one of the most popular landmarks in Wujin with a sustained contribution to the social and cultural life of the city.
