01甘肃临夏大剧院
上海
A large-scale cultural theater featuring an elaborate radial diagrid dome and arched colonnade base, serving as a study in complex parametric envelope design.
- What we like about this project
- The complex petal-like lattice motifs taper and transform scale dynamically as they transition from the perimeter base to the crown.
Materials

- Geometry
- Symmetrical domed volume featuring a continuous radially organized diagrid shell and arched base colonnade.
- Facade system
- Double-layer composite lattice dome with integrated glazing panels and structural ribs.
- Structural guess
- Space frame or diagrid shell structure supporting a large-span dome.
- Spatial scale
- Monumental scale; a multi-story civic theater structure towering above the surrounding landscape.
- Lighting
- Diffused overcast daylight under snowy atmospheric conditions, creating even illumination with soft shadows in the lattice recesses.
- Atmosphere
- Serene and imposing amidst a blanket of winter snow, highlighting the intricate geometry of the dome.
- Environmental context
- Open, flat snowy landscape with distant low hills and modest adjacent buildings.
- Spatial experience
- Approached from an open snowy field, the building presents a monumental centralized volume with intricate surface depth.
- Composition rhythm
- Radial repetition of pointed arches at the base scaling up into an interlocking diamond lattice pattern across the dome.
- Style reading
- Contemporary monumental parametric architecture
