With the design concept of “Spreading Wings”, this project establishes a green design strategy in terms of regional adaptation, passive energy-saving form, integrated landscape design, and application of low-carbon materials.
01 Regional Climate Adaptation
In response to the cold climate of Yili, the building volumes step down gradually and open toward Swan Lake, reducing cold wind intrusion while maximizing south-facing daylight and landscape views. The roof gently rises from the ground to form a wing-like shape, echoing the swan theme and facilitating passive heat gain in winter and natural shading in summer.
02 Passive Ventilation and Daylighting
The building’s stretched curved form and elevated corridors create clear view corridors and air ducts to enhance natural ventilation. BIPV skylights and U-shaped glass are adopted to integrate solar power generation with natural daylighting. Soft overhead light is introduced through skylights, and U-shaped glass achieves uniform light diffusion, reducing energy consumption for artificial lighting. Meanwhile, photovoltaic modules provide clean energy for the building.
03 Building-Landscape Integration and Microclimate Regulation
The architecture and landscape are designed as an integrated whole, with multiple modular activity areas interspersed outdoors. The stepped roofs three-dimensionalize public spaces and form sheltered semi-outdoor areas. The combination of greenery and hard paving regulates the site microclimate, mitigates the heat island effect, and provides a comfortable outdoor environment for youth activities.
04 Low-Carbon Materials and Whole-Life-Cycle Emission Reduction
Aluminum panels, BIPV skylights, U-shaped glass and other materials are used. Photovoltaic modules achieve energy self-sufficiency. The U-shaped glass and aluminum panel system facilitate prefabricated construction and reduce construction waste. The architecture blends modestly into the city and nature. Through phased construction and stylistic harmony, large-scale demolition and reconstruction are avoided, ensuring long-term sustainable operation.
