The building complex of Xi'an High-tech No. 1 Middle School uses orange natural lychee-faced ceramic panels as the medium
Expand the texture of Qinchuan cultural context in the modern education field
The terracotta panel sintered at high temperature has a warm orange tone, and the texture of the lychee surface is like the Danxia rock formation at the southern foot of the Qinling Mountains.
The rhythm of natural weathering is hidden in the thickness of the particles.
The architect uses staggered stacking of ceramic panels to outline the outline of the building.
When the folded facade changes with the light, the concave and convex pebbled texture becomes a stage of light and shadow.
The morning light spreads through, and the particles on the brick surface reflect the gilded warmth of Han tiles.
In the twilight, the orange-red pottery panels overlap with the glass curtain wall, just like the blurred cinnabar annotations on the silk of ancient books.
When students walk through the corridor enclosed by ceramic panels, their fingertips touch the rough and warm surface.
It quietly resonates with the texture of three thousand years of civilization, making the building a three-dimensional poem that grows in time.
