Honghua Airport District Masterplan Mixed Use

Honghua Airport District Masterplan

Honghua Airport District Masterplan is a mixed use urban plan for a site in Nanjing, China. The site measures about 649 by 590 metres and is crossed by an old airport runway 62 metres wide. A linked activity bar joins the north and south parts of the site along the runway park. A performance centre anchors the plan and activates the runway. Offices, a hotel and retail spaces are arranged around independent courtyards. Building volumes are broken into smaller stacked boxes with varied facades. LED glass canopies light the street level and support public events.

Honghua Airport District Masterplan Mixed Use by Shihi Chou was selected as an exceptional example of architectural design by the A' Design Award. Honghua Airport District Masterplan Mixed Use received the Bronze A' Design Award in Architecture, Building and Structure Design in 2021. The A' Architecture, Building and Structure Design Award is a highly prestigious, international, juried design recognition program that celebrates outstanding design of skyscrapers, museums, residential buildings, commercial complexes, educational institutions, religious structures, infrastructure designs, landscaping projects and more.
