直现建筑 Epiphany Architects

Based in Chengdu, Epiphany Architects designs public pavilions, exhibition venues, and cafes characterized by sweeping roofscapes that fold down to grade level, paper-thin roof edges, and slatted apertures that manipulate dynamic overhead light. This portfolio serves as a precise reference when detailing continuous faceted wraps, integrating low-profile perimeter millwork, or studying how fluid structural forms extend public circulation across complex urban sites.

High aerial perspective rendering of the Dream Factory complex by Epiphany Architects in Chengdu, featuring sweeping green roofs connecting multiple volumes.

梦工厂综合体

成都

An aerial rendering precedent for integrating large-scale mixed-use complexes with continuous accessible green roofs and centralized public plazas.

What we like about this project
The entire upper roofscape folds down to grade level, creating a continuous pedestrian connection across multiple building volumes.

Geometry
An organic, biomorphic master plan layout where sweeping continuous green roof terraces connect distinct high-rise and mid-rise volumes around a central circular public plaza.
Facade system
Curtained vertical glazing below heavily articulated green-roofed terraced slabs.
Structural guess
Steel and concrete composite frames supporting large-span landscaped terraced roofs.
Spatial scale
Large multi-block urban complex spanning several acres with towers rising around ten to fifteen stories.
Lighting
Soft, diffused overcast daylight casting subtle shadows across curved surfaces and green roofs.
Atmosphere
Expansive, green, and civic-oriented, blending high-density architecture directly into park-like surroundings.
Environmental context
Urban setting bounded by multi-lane roads, dense parkland trees, and surrounding high-rise residential blocks.
Spatial experience
From above, the complex reads as a continuous landscape folding over built architecture, creating accessible roofscapes and a central gathering hub.
Composition rhythm
Radiating arms and curved ribbon geometries converging on a central circular amphitheater.
Style reading
Biomorphic contemporary mega-complex

Mixed-use commercial and cultural complex
