almost looks unreal,
but it is not, Melbourne-based architecture firm studio505 has designed and
completed the Lotus Building and People’s Park that’s located in Wujin, China,
its impressive physical form resembles the flower for which the building is
named, and its petals dramatically rise out of an artificial lake, accompanied
by an eight acre park, it’s used as a civic building and a landmark whose
distinctive presence ties the community together,
the project is designed for
energy efficiency; it’s cooled using 2500 geothermal piles installed through
the base of the lake, and the center uses evaporative cooling from it to
operate a thermal chimney within the main flower pod, at night, a light show features a series of changing natural color
combinations and transforms the Lotus Building into a spectacular art
attraction, the building houses parts of the planning bureau as well as
new exhibition halls meeting rooms and conference centres, stunning, it just looks so unreal.
