Why are seaside buildings always particularly romantic?


Deco uses three keywords to collect five seaside buildings, close to the seaside | large public space | cultural buildings

.

UCCA dune Art Museum has 7 indoor exhibition halls and 3 outdoor exhibition halls on the beach

.

“—— Ma Yansong stands quietly at the boundary between land and sea

.

Why do we want to go to the beach every summer? When it comes to buildings adjacent to the sea, we always have a lot of romantic imagination

.

The “poetic architecture” Ullens UCCA sand dune art museum was completed and opened in 2018

.

With its own inclusive and soft image, it connects the Bay and the earth, the city and nature, books and people“ Spiritual attribute is the core value of architecture; It will render the humanistic atmosphere of a city

.

It is also a coastal space with the library as the main body and open to the public“ In my impression, the sky, sea and beach itself are very beautiful, just as literature can add humanistic color to nature, so can architecture

.

Natural lighting jumps between the curved walls and the ground, emitting a quiet and soft halo

.

Designed by Li Hu and Huang Wenjing of open architecture firm, UCCA dune Art Museum has become a very popular contemporary art space in Beidaihe with a humble attitude of integrating into nature

.

Every summer, the weaving tourists form an interesting contrast between excitement and loneliness in the context of “lonely building”

.

Architecture, art, humanities and nature meet here

.

People climb up the stairs, pass through the narrow entrance, bypass the screen wall, and finally see an auditorium space facing the sea

.

People walk on the beach, listen to the waves, read with the sea breeze, measure the scale between human and nature with their feet, and then slowly feel the dialogue between architects and the sea“ Whenever I look at the sea, I always want to talk to someone

.

In terms of geographical space and spirit, compared with the upper space, the lower space is closer to our secular life

.

It is located in the Anaya seaside library along the coastline of Bohai Bay, China, about 300 meters away from the seaside church

.

In the hot Haikou, these holes allow the building to breathe, achieve the effect of ventilation and cooling, and introduce natural light indoors, blurring the boundary of indoor and outdoor scenery

.

Designers explore the boundary between people and buildings, the flow of light and air, and the viewing relationship between sea and landscape on this beach

.

Due to the elevation of the space, the view from the upper space eliminates the beach and people on the beach, and there is only an endless sea level

.

No matter where you are, everyone can see the scene outside the landing window unhindered#   UCCA dune Art Museum   In front of the eternal sea and wind, be a hermit under the sand dunes + open architecture office faces the Bohai Sea and hides under the sand dunes by the sea of Qinhuangdao

.

There is no driveway or shortcut here

.

Therefore, the designer designed the most important reading space as a “stepped stand”

.

“—— Haruki Murakami: “it has been consistent for thousands of years, and we are never tired of it.” -《 DRAWN》#   Haikou Yundong Library   Read floating clouds on the sea + mad architecture firm from the perspective of literature

.

Sunlight will also penetrate these narrow air ducts and sprinkle slow-moving spots in the space

.

In the library, readers either read books or look at the sunset facing the sea to feel the scale between human and natural scenery#   Seaside Church   Lonely church, a stranded ship + straight building “we imagine that this church is a ship that once drifted on the sea a long time ago

.

From the perspective of coordinate space, Dong Gong hopes that the library can have a more direct relationship with the macro sea, and another key point of site selection is “a certain distance from the community”

.

The lower floor is a covered place for people to shelter from rain, shade and rest

.

But when I talk to people, I always want to see the sea

.

As a Yundong library, I want to see the sea from a literary and artistic point of view

.

The upper space is the church in essence

.

It should be implanted into the sand dune and integrated into the sand dune

.

At high tide, the lower space may even be submerged by seawater, leaving only a triangular roof like a “sail”, which visually echoes the designer’s original idea – “the ship that drifted on the sea a long time ago”

.

Inspired by the “sand digging” game loved by everyone in childhood, the designer created the art museum into a “cave” type of human primitive residence, creating a series of interconnected “cell” spaces of different sizes“ The existence of sand dunes is an important part of coastal ecology, but human construction makes the sand disappear slowly, leaving only the beach

.

“—— In addition to the streamlined facade, Ma Yansong’s most striking is the irregular circular openings like “caves”

.

The floor area of the indoor part, reading space and public service area is about 2:1

.

The white concrete building with a strong sense of sculpture is like a cloud floating on the sea

.

Therefore, a building must have an unusual and profound relationship with such a special place

.

As the spiritual business cards of Anaya, they attract an endless stream of people to make pilgrimages all year round

.

The only way to study here is to walk hundreds of meters on the warm beach“ This process of arrival is also part of the architectural experience

.

We hope that this is an urban space that people are willing to visit and stay in their daily life

.

The four seasons rotate, the sun rises and the moon sets, and the change of the sea never stops

. Double Head Lifting Pin Anchor

For the community residents and tourists in Anaya, the meaning of this building has long gone beyond the “church” itself

.

In the library, the cement of the wall retains its original texture without too much manual treatment

.

We think this building may have something to do with this sense of instability

.

In addition to the stepped library on the second floor of the sea, there are also cafes, roof gardens and cultural spaces for curation

.

The 30 cm diameter ventilation shaft set on the arc roof can be opened and closed electrically to drive the indoor air flow if the weather permits

.

“—— Facing the sea in the East, Donggong library serves the community residents in the West residential area in spring, summer and autumn, and is open to the society free of charge

.

People and people, people and the sea, people and buildings have a dialogue here

.

Close to the coastline, the seaside church is a suspended two-story building with a triangular spire

.

They will open people’s imagination journey, explore and appreciate the significance of different beauty to people’s life

.

Mad architecture firm, which is good at “melting feelings into scenery”, broke the impression of hardness and strength of concrete, and shaped the integrated concrete building into a light, soft and flowing image

.

The “Haikou Yundong library” designed by mad architecture firm led by Ma Yansong is the first post station completed in the large-scale international public art project “Haikou · post station on the beach”

.

““ When the sea is still very barren, being a house psychologically responds to the reality that people feel unstable in front of the sea

.

After reaching the top floor, the viewer will be placed between the boundless sky and the sea.

.

  From the spiral staircase on the first floor, the light is more and more sufficient and the field of vision is gradually open

.

More “refined” in vision and experience, far away from all the noise#   Sanlian seaside Library   The lonely library, a rock + straight building growing from the seaside, is also created by Dong Gong

.

The scenery along the coastline “is like a drama with the theme of nature”

.

“” Li Hu people can experience the sudden brightness of a beam of light falling from the sky when they enter the art museum from the narrow and dark tunnel to the reception hall with soft sky light

.

The years change, the sea recedes, leaving a space structure, still floating on the beach.”—— When Dong Gong talks about seaside buildings, the names he can’t get around are the “Anaya seaside library” and “seaside church” directly completed by Dong Gong
