Erläuterungstext
Der Neubau des Museums für Stadtplanung in Dalian symbolisiert das Tor zur Innenstadt, ein Drehpunkt, der mehrere wichtige Hauptstraßen zu einem Boulevard bündelt. Durch die sensible Anordnung von transparenten und opaken Dreiecksflächen der Gebäudehülle, entsteht ein Wechselspiel zwischen dem Innenleben des Museums und der städtischen Umgebung. Diese simple formale Anordnung der Flächen schützt das Gebäude vor Überhitzung im Sommer und lässt natürliches Licht im Winter einfallen. Durch das Zusammenspiel von Low-Tech-und High-Tech-Methoden wird der Energieverbrauch minimiert und eine bequeme und stabile Innenraum-Atmosphäre geschaffen. Der architektonische Grundgedanke des Projekts verfolgt, durch räumliche Zusammenhänge zum urbanen Kontext, ein sehr öffentliches Gebäude mit kontinuierlichem Innen-/ Außenraum zu formen. Dieses Konzept ist speziell im Innenraum sichtbar. Lounges, Balkone, Brücken und Plattformen tragen dazu bei, dem Besucher die Orientierung im Gebäude zu erleichtern und visuelle Verbindungen zur Stadt zu betonen. Die Form der Hülle, eine Art stetige Aufwärtsspirale, wurde durch Rotation der oberen drei Ebenen zu den drei städtischen Rastern und durch verbinden der Ecken zu Raumdiagonalen geschaffen.

The Dalian Urban Planning Museum is designed to be the gateway to the city center redirecting several main streets to the main boulevard. The building skin consists of a careful arrangement of transparent and opaque triangular surfaces closing and revealing the interior of the museum to the urban surrounding. This simple formal strategy keeps the building from overheating in summer and allows natural light in winter. The building is designed using low-tech and high-tech methods to minimize energy consumption and create comfortable and stable interior environments. The primary architectural ambition is to create a very public building with continuous inside/outside spaces creating physical relationships to the urban context. This is emphasized in the interior space by placing lounges, balconies, bridges and platforms the help to orientate the visitor and create visual connections to city. The exterior of the buildings was formed by rotating the upper three levels to three urban grids and then connecting the corners of these boxes in spatial diagonals creating a continuous upwards spiral. The arrangement of closed and opened triangular surfaces creates an interplay of closing and revealing interior spaces and the urban context. Furthermore the arrangement avoids solar gains in summer and allows natural light into the building in winter.
