Transformation of Dongfanghong square

Dongfanghong square is an international, conceptual and cultural modern home.

The functional layout is as follows: high-end commercial and residential buildings are located on both sides of the upper end of the north, namely the living area; the main building is located at the middle end of the north, which is composed of three buildings, one in the middle is a high-star hotel, and the two sides are office buildings. The first to sixth floors of the three buildings are connected as a whole podium, which is used for large supermarkets and boutiques, and the area is a commercial area; the lower end of the north is two symmetrical buildings, one for a library, and the other for a library Museum and urban planning exhibition hall, the area is a cultural area. A small square is planned between the commercial area and the cultural area, which is connected with the original square through the rostrum, expanding the leisure area.

The gymnasium should be properly reconstructed. In the design, the new square retains the podium, and will be expanded in the original position. The scale and volume will be expanded to make it more solemn and heroic, so as to meet the needs of political activities or mass activities. The original square, including the gymnasium and Dongfanghong mall, should be properly transformed and its functions should be preserved. It should be a space with leisure as the main body and sports and commerce as well.

The design framework is mainly round

The design framework of the new Plaza is round, which symbolizes the inclusiveness and diversity of Lanzhou culture through the combination of spatial sequence. The upper semicircle shape implies that the sun is rising and never setting, symbolizing the vigorous development of Lanzhou city. The sun shape also points out the theme of Dongfanghong square.

Through the green space, the subsidiary building and the main building and the semicircle shape of the main building, this paper outlines the image of an ancient imperial chair and an official hat, implying that the country is permanent and talents are coming forth in large numbers.

The overall layout is based on the sequence of traditional Chinese axes. The implication of the circular square is not only similar to the ancient totem of China and the symbol of the Chinese nation - dragon, but also coincides with the diversity and inclusiveness of Lanzhou culture.

Reflect the cultural characteristics of Lanzhou

Conceptual design describes the evolution of a culture and the inheritance of civilization. Lanzhou culture should be a combination of Yellow River civilization, silk road culture and northwest customs. This design mainly reflects this fusion through color, line and plane modeling.

The main color of the square is yellow, which symbolizes the Yellow River and the northwest desert. Green space intersperses it, implying sunrise in the desert and dense oases, nurturing the great Chinese nation and the northwest people. The radial lines and commercial buildings reveal the opening history and commercial flow history of the Silk Road, and also indicate the opening of Lanzhou and the prosperity of Northwest commercial capital. The reconstruction of the subsidiary building and the original square building under the main building uses a large area of light blue and marine creatures to show that the Yellow River is surging into the sea, and the Yellow River civilization is integrated into the modern marine civilization, revealing the contribution of the Yellow River civilization to the marine civilization and the development and brilliant future of the Yellow River civilization.

More humanized design

In this design, the square section of Qingyang Road will be reconstructed into a sunken Road, so that the north and South squares will be connected into one, and the pedestrian and vehicle flow in the square will be realized, which not only expands the square area, ensures the continuity of business, but also creates a safe, ecological and leisure living environment for the citizens. In terms of details, the new Plaza provides more and more novel rest places for the elderly and children, and uses more water bodies (three large fountains are designed preliminarily), which makes a water deficient city more moist,
