Located in Ouhai District, Wenzhou, China, the Science and Technology Building at Wenzhou-Kean University serves as a gateway to the campus. Surrounded by lush mountains, the design integrates sustainability and locality, reflecting the unique cultural and natural context of Wenzhou.
The enclosed courtyard employs passive low-carbon strategies, ensuring optimal ventilation, natural lighting, and sightlines, while the spatial sequence transitions from the dynamic campus lawn to the tranquil Chuitai Mountain. This spatial progression seamlessly connects the building to its environment and echoes Wenzhou’s mountain culture, forming the foundation for its spatial and formal logic.
The western entrance features an academic colonnade, reinterpreting Western traditions while acting as the building’s central space. It functions as both a traditional foyer and a "public square," framing distant mountain views and providing spaces for socialization. Staggered public functional blocks interweave with the colonnade, forming shared indoor and outdoor platforms that foster campus-building interaction.
The building’s materiality further reinforces its design intent. A modern aluminum curtain wall blends with Kean University's diverse architectural atmosphere, while fair-faced concrete reflects light softly, creating dynamic interplay with shadows. Curved glass and dark stone on the ground floor, paired with gradient-textured aluminum panels, add delicate variations and warmth to its rational design.
The Science and Technology Building houses five academic departments, offering flexible spaces for research and interdisciplinary collaboration. By combining sustainable strategies, cultural resonance, and inspiring spaces, the project creates a landmark that balances academic functionality, aesthetic refinement, and environmental responsibility.
