MAD Architects have revealed new photographs of their Nanjing Zendai Himalayas Center, as work nears completion in China. The mixed-use development, totaling over 560,000 square meters of building area, will host commercial, hotel, office, and residential functions. The development “seeks to restore the spiritual harmony between humanity and nature” through integrating contemplative spaces that merge nature with the demands of modern living.
A series of low-rise buildings and footbridges allow the scheme to unfold onto the city, with curving, ascending corridors and elevated pathways weaving through commercial buildings. The routes are activated by public gardens and social spaces, to “create a spiritual and poetic retreat in the middle of the city.
隨著中國的工作接近完成，MAD建築師透露了其南京證大喜馬拉雅山中心的新照片。 該混合用途開發項目總建築面積超過560,000平方米，將承載商業，酒店，辦公室和住宅功能。 通過整合將自然與現代生活需求融合在一起的沉思空間，該開發項目“尋求恢復人與自然之間的精神和諧”。
一系列的低層建築和人行天橋使該方案得以在城市中展開，其彎曲，上升的走廊和高架路貫穿商業建築。 這些路線由公共花園和社交空間激活，以“在城市中心創造精神和詩意的靜修之所。
Along the site’s perimeter, mountain-like towers appear “carved out by wind and water.” White curved glass louvers “flow” like waterfalls, merging with ponds, waterfalls, and brooks to echo Nanjing’s surrounding mountains and rivers.
The Nanjing Zendai Himalayas Center is expected to be completed in 2020. News of the scheme comes weeks after MAD began construction on a floating kindergarten above a historic Beijing courtyard.
在該站點的外圍，山形的塔樓似乎是“被風和水雕成的”。 白色的弧形玻璃百葉窗像瀑布一樣“流動”，與池塘，瀑布和溪流融為一體，呼應南京周圍的山脈和河流。
南京證大喜馬拉雅山中心預計將在2020年竣工。在MAD開始在歷史悠久的北京四合院上方的一所浮動幼兒園開始建設數週後，該計劃的消息傳出。
