Wondfo Shenzhou Road Campus / Atelier L

As an expansion of the headquarter campus, the project aims to achieve 3.0 FAR under the lot size of 14,290 square meters. When the project was taken over, the building massing has been set already. Therefore, the first mission is to redesign the exterior façade, and then integrate the architecture and landscape. The scope extends to the interior public areas. Eventually, the results accomplish the campus as a whole. The site used to be a quarry, and many boulders were discovered during the foundation excavation. Our initial reaction is to preserve this special “site memory” and take advantage of them. The stones are placed as the feature elements for the gardens which resonate with the ‘genius loci’.
