Another illustration on the giant-designed international youth culture complex occupied the area of 5.2 hectares in China
The under-construction skyscraper (because it was originally scheduled to be completed later in 2016) was designed by Zaha Hadid and is being installed in China’s Jiangsu province.
Inside this huge building, upon the request and design of client, the architect built 2,100-seat conference hall which was equipped with a multi-purpose proscenium stage for cultural and theatrical events, while a 500-seat concert venue is optimized for acoustic orchestral performances. This unbeatable structure also contains five-star hotel, office and administrative space, and basement parking.
To be more specific, the total surface of 465,000 sqm were shared as the following: 136,000 sqm for hotel, 106,500 sqm for conference centre, 122,500 sqm for office, etc., and 100,000 sqm for basement parking.
