The calming contemporary architecture of the new Zhang Yan Cultural Museum is inspired by the site's original historic structure 🍃
Chinese architecture studio #HorizontalDesign is behind the magnificent design of the new museum near Shanghai celebrating the birthplace of the city’s ancient culture and the history of the Fuquan Mountain culture.
Working within the remains of the original structures, Horizontal Design carefully balanced renovation with new building design to create a voluminous collection of concrete forms that organically grow from the existing historic architecture.
On the site was a former family home dating back to the Qing dynasty. The architects chose to preserve what was left, and built a respectful addition to create one of the exhibition halls on the same footprint.
The new architecture was slightly offset, so it appears to float within the ruin. The design follows the traditional atrium typology with inward sloping roofs, echoing the life of the former structure.
