Luxe
Lake New Town Gateway Chengdu, China 2008/2012
The 250,000 sf New Town Gateway located in
Chengdu, China will act as a Gateway to the New Luxe Lakes development
– a new town for 100,000 people. Drawing from Chinese culture, Sichuan’s
landscape, the site’s agricultural history and the demands of a
new city, the Luxe Lakes New Town Gateway is an internal and external descent
of Galleries, Exhibition halls, Theater, Restaurants, Tower Cafe, Meeting rooms, Private floating cubes and natural elements that
extend from the lake, embrace the existing topography and merge into the
hillside, Museum Hill. Abstracting the movement of a dragon, the New Town Gateway emerges from Museum Hill and descends to
the lake, with a Performance Hall that opens up onto the lake and a sheer
red sandstone wall of café bluffs.
