Architectural Renderings House-Futuristic Qingdao Water City Expo Center



The new Qingdao Water City Exhibition Center in the Shandong Province in China is an amazing building with the magnificent shape of design. Its designed by NBBJ who based in LA. The design is inspire by the surrounding landscape on that building.


It’s resemble the dikes that are prevalent in the area to hold back the tidal waters. To be built with strong, angular lines of glass and steel, the expo center will act as a gateway to the Water City Development in Aoshan Bay. NBBJ also included the use of natural ventilation, daylighting, construction efficiency and renewable energy in the sweeping design of the expo center.


This expo center is the part of new water city development plan that will be the first to be constructed soon. With area almost 1,940,000 sq, this expo center consist of 10 flat-floor expo halls, one multi-purpose hall, two lobbies, retail space and a central outdoor plaza. It will be use to serve host large scale performances and events, and a central lawn will serve as a park and outdoor event space.

Characterized by strong angular lines and built from glass and steel, the design is shaped by its interaction and proximity to the water.



And for sustainability, solar passive design is employed to shade interiors from solar heat gain, while natural ventilation with the help of solar stack vents in the main expo hall is utilized to reduce mechanical cooling.


Large glass windows are included throughout in order for natural daylight to stream in. All of the exhibition halls are equally sized in order to expedite construction and minimize waste and finally, a PV system will be installed on the roof and a district-wide central heat and power plant is used for heating and cooling using the ocean as a heat sink.
