We constructs gabled hot spring for three-part complex in china.
with the intent to fully submerge a design into the landscape of qiqihar, china, we have constructed ‘hezhitang hot spring’. as part of a three-phase complex covering approximately 62,000m², the overall plan includes aquatic clubs, charted spa rooms, a five-star hotel, small theaters, a mall, and corresponding ancillary buildings. each of these programs are contained within rectilinear volumes that orient themselves towards the nearby wetlands.
