Between Sculpture and Infrastructure: Glide Over a Floating Pedestrian Path

Architizer Editors Architizer Editors

Floating Cornice by line+a is a public landscape structure of the Zhejiang Conservatory of Music, which runs naturally between campus buildings as a continuously folding corridor. The corridor’s floating structure preserves the site’s ecological integrity by avoiding any existing plants, while its versatile folding forms allow it to be transformed into roofs and seats throughout.

What was once an abandoned garden has thus been resurrected thanks to the artistic walkway, which offers easy access to nearby trees and the neighboring brook – a place sure to inspire the Conservatory’s budding musicians.
