“Bing Di: Wuzhen Theater” by Wang Nanyuan Mu

Writing a building through the volume of a book.

This book provides an in-depth analysis of the Wuzhen Theater, known as “the most beautiful theater in China”.

The designer of this book presents the concept of architectural design, architectural drawings, the process of design and construction, and real photos to readers from multiple angles and multiple perspectives.

The design theme of the building is “a place where dreams can go on”.

The difficulty has arisen, how to melt it?

①The image of Biandilian

The main theater for 1200 people and the multi-functional theater for 600 people are designed as back-to-back imagery of Biandilian, which is in line with the flavor of Jiangnan.

②Color is more important than shape

It does not deliberately pursue the similarity of shape, but dialogues with historical buildings in terms of color and texture.

③See the small from the big

Using the old ship, wood and ice cracked lattice windows, slanted brick wall materials, and the beauty of materials and craftsmanship, the building looks less obtrusive.

Golden sentence:

The lotus flower is deep in the fields and leaves, and the leaves are newly born and flowered.

The theater was originally a place for us to dream. We knew that the theater was fake, but we still had to go to see it. Wuzhen is a place like a dream, so the biggest task of Wuzhen Theater is to let people The dream continues, the atmosphere of this space is not to wake up people’s good dreams – all the purpose is to achieve this.

The fascinating thing about architecture is that although architects can only use solid materials such as bricks, wood, stone, metal, and glass to engage in substantial construction games, they can create spaces that touch people’s hearts, and can go further and further. Explore the seemingly incomprehensible history and culture, the spirit of the place, the common humanity and other rich meanings.
