原有厂房的双坡屋顶显得沉闷，原有员工食堂和厨房的单坡屋顶潦草简陋，原有宿舍的平屋顶与优美的东湖环境格格不入。我们参照水鸟翅膀的形态，结合中国传统木构建筑的举折曲线，设计了出檐深远的单坡屋顶，在面对大湖面的单坡高侧空间中设置夹层，形成观景平台；我们按照中国传统建筑的”砌上露明造“逻辑，特意暴露全部结构，以展现屋檐之下极具表现力的木结构体系。建筑竣工之后，有人看出了飞鸟展翅的动势：野木迢迢遮去雁，渔舟点点映飞鸟，有人看出了湖北出土之编钟的影子，有人看出了钢琴键盘的隐喻，也有人看出了楚文化的特征；还有人看出了九头鸟的气势：天上九头鸟，地上湖北佬。建筑形态的多义性解读赋予了建筑更多的内涵。

双曲面屋顶意味着必须使用弧形主次梁，这对传统的制造工艺是一个巨大的挑战，但在数字化时代，这并非难事，琳琅木建筑科技有限公司用机械臂轻松地实现了设计的效果。厂房中设置有水泵、水管、阀门等机械装置，这些都是当年水厂的核心设备，我们期望能在新展厅中完整地保留这些遗存物，并予以展示，这一想法得到了当地领导的高度认同，最终得以实现。

如何在风景名胜区建造？这是一个涉及价值观和方法论的老问题，有人认为设计仿古建筑是与环境协调的可靠方法，也有人认为协调是个伪命题，建筑的当代性才是值得建筑师追求的目标。本项目意在探索一条以谦和的方式，创造属于此时此地之建筑的道路。

These used to be waterworks, with water pump room, staff canteen, kitchen and staff dormitory. The waterworks were abandoned more than 20 years ago, but the building and the mechanical equipment inside are still there. We hope to revitalize and regenerate the old factory through the design, and implant new cultural scenes and display functions while retaining the memory of the place. On the basis of this group of abandoned buildings, we redesigned the exterior wall and roof, and reorganized the viewing line. As the original building area was too small to support all the contents of the exhibition, we dug a 6-meter-deep basement on the back side of the water and used it as a multimedia exhibition hall. As a general scale exhibition, it is not necessary to have such a high space. Therefore, we made a mezzanine on the side facing the lake, forming a contemporary exhibition hall that combines the ground, air and underground multiple Spaces with the combination of text, material objects and multimedia display.

The double pitched roof of the original workshop is dull. The single pitched roof of the original staff canteen and kitchen is shabby. The flat roof of the original dormitory is incompatible with the beautiful East Lake environment. By referring to the shape of waterfowl wings and combining with the lift and fold curves of traditional Chinese wooden buildings, we designed a shed roof with deep eaves, and set a mezzanine in the higher side of slope facing the large lake to form a viewing platform. Following the logic of traditional Chinese architecture, we deliberately exposed the entire structure to reveal the expressive wooden structure system under the eaves. After the construction was completed, some people saw the dynamic force of flying birds: wild trees covered the wild geese, fishing boats reflected the birds. Some people saw the shadow of chime bells unearthed in Hubei, and some people saw the metaphor of piano keyboard. Some people saw the characteristics of Chu culture. Some people saw the momentum of the nine-headed bird: nine-headed birds in the sky, Hubei guys on the ground. The polysemous interpretation of architectural form endows architecture with more connotation.

Hyperboloid roofs mean that curved primary and secondary beams have to be used, which is a huge challenge for traditional manufacturing processes, but in the digital age, it's not difficult. Linlangmu Construction Technology Co., Ltd. easily achieved the design effect with a mechanical arm. The industrial building is equipped with pumps, water pipes, valves and other mechanical devices, which are the core equipment of the waterworks at that time. We hope to retain these relics completely in the new exhibition hall and display them. This idea was highly appreciated by local leaders and finally realized.How to construct buildings in scenic spots? It's an old question of values and methodology. Some people think that the design of antique architecture is a reliable way to coordinate with the environment, while others think that coordination is a false proposition, and the contemporary nature of architecture is a worthy goal for architects to pursue. The project aims to explore a modest way to create architecture that belongs here and now.
