The purpose, from the beginning, has been to integrate the playing fields, its lighting towers and all the buildings of the training center, creating this way a sequenced and recognizable set that, incorporating all these elements, is able to generate a new harmonious, exact and integrated landscape.
We are not in favor of opting for a solution by accumulation, in which the aforementioned elements find a relative position more or less ordered or hazardous and avoiding the simple juxtaposition of independent elements, that is one of our first purposes. Our proposal aims to provide unity of landscape and geometric coherence to the whole. The large platform is composed by eighteen regular-size football fields, two eleven-a-side fields and a 650 meter wide porch covering the six buildings, which give the desired coherence and landscape unity to the whole. Furthermore, the addition of buildings and the defined entrances gives it a certain independence and possibility of growth.
Space also has a narrative rhythm, and music is leading this rhythm. The exciting point of creation is the seventh symphony in A major. It is powerful and strikes the soul.
There are four parts to combine this space: the wall, the arch, the sloping house, and the long desk.
Penda China Office has recently completed the design for the renewal of the Florence (Dalian) Culture and Art Exchange Center at Dalian china. “I hope that art will breathe new life into the dreary urban spaces, create new building identity while reconstructing the old spatial experiences, and make the project a name card for the urban renewal.” –Dayong Sun

Neusoft International Software Park (Hekou Park) is located in Hekou Software Industry Base in Dalian High-tech Park and is built to expand its business and enhance its ability to adapt to the rapid development of international and domestic software and information services markets. The new park is a more historical and cultural park with integrating office, supporting and sports facilities to accommodate the software developers with a comfortable environment. The overall image of the buildings is vigorous and natural, striving to create the castle-style buildings in the mountain and to make a distinct impression.

Olympia 66 is a statement of innovative design as a landmark in the city of Dalian, China. The design respects Chinese culture and urban context, with the thoughtful approach to its relationship to the street providing generous community space and plazas with integrated landscape. This 7-storey shopping mall grasps the fine balance between complex form and function, responding to the immediate surroundings and local community and providing the largest shopping, lifestyle and leisure complex in Dalian.
The building has both to reflect the promising modern future of Dalian and its tradition as an important port, trade, industry and tourism city. The formal language of the project combines and merges the rational structure and organization of its modern conference center typology with the floating spaces of modernist architecture.
The everyday experience of the users is critically important for the hospital typology. Our proposal for a Jinzhou New Area Medical Center is located as closest as possible to the existing wing of the hospital in order to shorten the routes and form one integrated complex with that existing wing.

The project is located at a mountain land of grape valley, the outskirts of the Dalian city, near the goldstone beach. The natural beauty of the site is the most important condition; any given architectural style is incommensurate to the surrounding, and leave the building contextual barren. We developed a set of diagram to define the building within the intersection of natural context and architectural typological context and hope the building emerges from this process.
Software used: Mcneel Rhinoces 4.0 and Discreet 3DS max 2008 for modeling; Vray for 3DS Max 1.5 for rendering; Autodesk AutoCAD 2007 for drawings and Adobe Photoshop 9.0 for final process.
The building frame including floor slabs, columns and cores consist of reinforced concrete. The façade construction is made of steel and wherever possible and available, recycling materials shall be used including structural steel, concrete and metal facade panels. The facades are highly insulated to keep the building volume climatically stable and to minimize the need to cool or heat the building. The façade surfaces are covered with recycled sheet metal panels from Dalian shipyards.
As time defines history and events turn into memories, time itself again stands in the way to recall both as the constantly changing subjectiveness of presence determines the perspective of view onto the past.
The seven chambers are designed to cut the visitor, the exhibited art of the private collection and the occasional cultural and communal events out of the context of the presence to create a moment of individual reception, reflection and interaction with the long lasting history of China without any influence of singular materiality of temporary circumstances, creating the opportunity of a silent encounter with various objects and art pieces, documenting the long way of thousands years of Chinese history, leading to the day, which is today.
