GOLDSTONE WINERY

The project is located at a mountain land of grape valley, the outskirts of the Dalian city, near the goldstone beach.

The natural beauty of the site is the most important condition; any given architectural style is incommensurate to the surrounding, and leave the building contextual barren.

We developed a set of diagram to define the building within the intersection of natural context and architectural typological context and hope the building emerges from this process .

First, we propose a semi buried volume to meet the physiognomy of the site; building’s two boundaries coincide with contour lines, another two boundaries’ angle are adjust carefully to make the building meet the entire site program arrangement in the manners of respecting the nature context and declaring its existence at the same time.

Then induct polygonal silhouette --- the presentation of architectural typological context of a rural winery --- to evoke memories of traditional winery.

Excavate the solid for two entrances and set the outdoor wooden terrace and garden for the program.

At interior, three routes --- visitors, VIP, materials and products --- runs independently and connects all spaces that the program required.
