  The project site: kaohsiung city in taiwan

Architects: zaha hadid, patrik schumacher

Year: 2007

Status: completed

 situated on kaohsiung city in taiwan, along the developing MRT public trensportaion line, and between the Zhongaheng stadium and fongshan city sports park, the proposed site for anational yo catalyze the development of amore public, and international Kaohsiung city. As a recognized base of industrial commerce in Taiwan, Kaohsiung city's infrastructure is already well established . with the inclusion of the new MRT Metropolis cultural & artistic belt along the line's east / west trajectory, the situation of the national Kaohsiung performing arts center, reflects the significance of the MRT as a major life line adicaencies with the proposed commercial district, as well as the open boundary around the sites perimeter serve not only to establish an open connection to the green scapes of the zhongzheng stadium to the north and fongshan city sports park to the south, but as ameans of flirting traffic into the site along this public " green band ".

: Voronoi diagram  

to achieve an open green connection while concurrently filtering public progression through the site, the voronoi diagram was adopted as a method of organization. The voronoi algorithm produces acolse packing of convex domain based on agiven point distribution. The pattern is akin to many self-organizing processes in nature and gives astrong sense of organic coherence. In evaluating the assignment of the local treasured trees hisroric buildings and site boundaries with voronoi calculations andusing the resulting pattern as an organizational design principal we are able to respect the current situarion of the site and cultivate astrong affiliation between the building and the surrounding park-space.

: Surface composition

The overall form of the buikding itself seems to grow out of the patterned landscape, merging at the top, to form acanopy that shades the public plaza below . By developing the form with nurbs surface geometry, based on the cluster of voronoi shapes that comprised the building, the voronoi pattern is expressed in all ehe elements of the façade system . Build around astrucural system extracted from the UV geometry of anurbs surface , the structure / glass façade system in the elements running up from the ground to the cladding and ventiliation .
