Gymnasium of New Campus of Tianjin University
According to the respective requirements regarding the plan dimension, headroom, and usage (dedicated or multi-purpose), the multiple indoor sports fields are compactly organized and connected by the linear public spaces (the public hall, the arch bridge, and the lobby of the swimming pool). The roof and the exterior walls of the sports space use a series of reinforced concrete structures of ruled curve surfaces, barrel arches, and conical surfaces which provide long-span space and high side window daylighting. The tectonic texture of the wooden mold concrete is exposed inside, and the architectural outline of silence and diversity is formed outside, achieving the perfect unity of the building’s structure, space, and form.
