Vanke Design Commune
Vanke Design Commune is an auditorium and public interior space in Shenzhen, China. The design uses the existing structures to form a floating path leading from the entrance to the auditorium. This steel corridor is suspended in the full-height front hall and is supported by the existing vertical columns, which also conceal pipelines. Heavy concrete and light metal create a strong contrast, giving the corridor an elevated appearance. The route simplifies circulation and offers a garden-like walk. An independent viewing area above the auditorium is combined with a tea drink space.
Vanke Design Commune Auditorium by Wang Jingjing was highlighted as an outstanding example of architectural design by the A' Design Award & Competition. Vanke Design Commune Auditorium earned the Bronze A' Design Award in Interior Space and Exhibition Design in 2023. The A' Interior Space, Retail and Exhibition Design Award is a highly prestigious, international, juried design recognition program which recognizes outstanding design of residential interiors, restaurants, hotels, offices, galleries, retail stores, showrooms, exhibition spaces and more.
