The
design
requirements
of
the
Phase
3
development
include
creating
an
innovative
iconic
architecture,
generating
ingenious
and
sustainable
low
carbon
design,
and
designing
the
building
which
unifies
the
Park’s
development
in
harmony
with
other
buildings
in
the
Park.
A
big
challenge
for
these
needs
is
to
reveal
the
gateway
of
Hong
Kong
Science
Park.
The
Park
is
the
place
where
the
science
and
its
technology
has
been
studied
and
developed
in
Hong
Kong.
The
Ideal
symbolism
of
the
Park
has
to
enhance
its
identity
among
other
buildings
in
the
science
park.
For
this
creation
of
the
new
icon,
our
initiation
on
design
is
crossed
over
to
the
idea
of
math,
geometry,
or
even
comprehensive
symbols
to
mimic
physics.
Furthermore,
our
design
idea
has
been
narrowed
down
into
a
form
that
will
mingle
those
symbols
as
well
as
the
design
requirements.
So,
we
introduce the ‘CUBE’, as the new icon.
주원교회 건축설계 디자인 / ARCHITECTURE DESIGN FOR CHURCH
The
“Cube”
has
been
evolved
in
various
steps
of
design
process.
It
is
transformed
from
its
own
form
to
another.
In
order
to
follow
one
of
the
required
design
elements,
the
form
is
oriented
toward
sun
angles
to
maximize
the
absorption
of
the
solar
energy.
The
Sun
will
be
utilized
to
generate
electrical
power
through
the
installed
photo-
voltaic
panels
on
the
tilted
roof
area.
So,
the
entire
electrical
consumption
of
the
building
will
be
covered
through
this
system
except
retail
and
coffee
shop
at
level
1.
The
energy
will
be
gathered
to
the
battery
installed
at
level
4
and
level
5,
and
it
will
be
closely
connected
to
the
Photo-voltaic
Panels
installed
on
the
same
levels.
In
addition,
inclined
facade
walls
represent
sustainable
ideas
of
the
material
uses.
It
uses
dual
layered
composite
panels.
The
wall
unit
is
combined
with
light
weight
precast
composite
panel
at
exterior,
MDF
panels
at
interior,
and
low-E
dual
glass
in-between.
It
will
limit
the
sun
lights
during
day
time
and
minimize
heat
transmittance
to
the
interior
space.
Furthermore,
exterior
walls
are
transformed
by
its
functional
requirement
for
the
use
of
rooms
providing
balconies
and
glass
openings,
and
air
ventilation
openings
at
building
core.
Thus,
the
“Cube”
is
connected
to
another
cube
(Cube
Annex).
This
is
a
transitional
form,
the
link
bridge
to
the
podium
to
the
main
‘Cube’.
This
linkage
not
only
amplifies
the
dynamic
form
of
the
Cube,
but
maintains
the
existing
building
design
in harmony with the new icon as well.
We
believe
not
in
a
dramatic
way
but
practical
that
the
simple
form
of
the
cube
will
represent
the
Science
Park
to
be
the
new
icon
especially
for
it
transforms
into
the
developed
shape
to
function
as
mixed-use
office
tower
so
as
for the ideas of iconic and sustainable building for Hong Kong Science Park.
