Way-Hiring-3
北京
An aerial precedent for organic, landscape-integrated architecture that uses sweeping undulating roofs and terraced water features to merge with a dense forest setting.
- What we like about this project
- The roof transitions smoothly into green-roofed viewing platforms on the upper tiers.

- curvilinear
- public-complex
- Geometry
- Sweeping organic curves with undulating roof profiles embedded into a terraced landscape next to a winding watercourse.
- Facade system
- Curved glazed curtain walls wrapping the lower levels beneath sweeping roof overhangs.
- Structural guess
- Steel space frame supporting large-span curved roof geometries with reinforced concrete foundations.
- Spatial scale
- Large public or cultural complex spanning multiple levels with human scale figures visible on terraces and plazas.
- Lighting
- Soft, diffused daylight under an overcast sky casting gentle shadows across the undulating roof and surrounding forest.
- Atmosphere
- Serene and integrated, evoking a dialogue between fluid man-made geometry and wild nature.
- Environmental context
- Dense pine-covered hillside setting alongside a stepped water body and rocky stream.
- Spatial experience
- The architecture feels continuous with the topography, blending sweeping roof forms and stepped terraces with the natural hillside and water features.
- Composition rhythm
- Horizontal undulating bands of roof panels sweep across the complex, balanced by the natural rhythm of tree lines and rocky streams.
