location: Qingdao, China

A series of diagrams became necessary as a way to understand and communicate the main points of the “boat building” design and its central atrium space and tower. These diagrams worked to convince the client of our solution to various issues ranging from fire code to public space, enhanced visibility of shops, and efficient circulation.

BUS STATION SCHEMATIC DESIGN

�erese Diede


The client for this mixed-use office building project was another architecture firm who wanted RSAA to present an alternative schematic design to their

two designs. RSAA held an in-house competition for the schematic design, from which the client selected

my proposal to be developed further for the eventual decision by the property developer.

The building’s significance is its positioning at the westernmost “gate” of Beijing along the main thoroughfare of Chang’an Avenue. The concept was to emphasize views toward the western mountains and provide mixing green zones between programs through open, shifting floor plates.
