Shuinian Station / Atelier ArchFAN

Moulin Rouge | Shuinian Station. The project base is on the side of a field road in Deyuan Street, Pi County, Sichuan. The original building is a rural water mill house with a history of more than 40 years. A water channel passes through the bottom of the building, and the perennial running water provides original and clean power for the drive of the water mill. With the development of the countryside, the function of water-milled houses has gradually disappeared, and houses with brick and wood structures have become abandoned and collapsed due to disrepair. The approximately 15 acres of land connected to the south side of the base is an ecologically excellent jungle. The town government hopes to attract investment and turn the 15 acres of land into a field activity place together with the water mill house. Our design tasks include the future functional planning and new building design of the entire approximately 15 acres of land. The first project to be implemented is the demonstration site in the area, and the start-up funds are minimal.
