hamburg-based gmp architekten have produced the winning proposal for the 'changzhou culture center' in the newly
developed center of changzhou, china. with a gross floor area of 365,000 square meters, the complex will host an art museum,
science and technology museum and library with additional support facilities for the city's xinbei district. comprised of
six modules, the arced forms mimic cantilevered bridges. an inviting environment of elaborate water features and landscaping
surrounding the structure produce gathering points for visitors.
