It was during an international competition that the Pelli Clarke Pelli Architects agency distinguished itself by winning the project of the Chengdu Natural History Museum in China. Major agencies were competing for this prestigious project, such as Zaha Hadid Architects, FUKSAS, Hussey Harris, Nihon Sekkei and Valode & Pistre.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The building draws its inspiration from the natural landscape of the Sichuan basin. The impact of the geological structure left on the environment over time, by the movements of the tectonic plates, largely inspired the designers. These forces have created unique forms that characterize Chengdu’s natural environment. The old water irrigation system also inspired outdoor spaces, feeding the basins that frame the museum. Chengdu is considered a booming city because of its entrepreneurial strength, this museum will be an important cultural landmark for the city.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Designed in collaboration with the China Southwest Architectural Design and Research Institute Corps and located in the eastern part of Chengdu’s historic city, this museum will offer more than 62,000 square meters of space.<\/p>\n

The building will include exhibition spaces as well as innovative educational spaces, but will also be able to host permanent, temporary or interactive exhibitions. A gift shop will also take place, as well as a caf\u00e9, cinemas and outdoor areas for relaxation.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The atrium will be the vibrant heart of the building, crossed by air bridges, connected to exhibitions and public amenity areas. The light will flood this generous space that will be in visual connection with the city, the street, the main entrance and the irrigation network of the surrounding gardens.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

What makes this building an out of the ordinary building, it is at the level of the visitor experience. Indeed, the visual impression of the building is vertical, whereas when one enters the museum, the experience on a human scale will be horizontal. This building will embody the unique character of Chengdu City.<\/p>\n

If all goes well, the natural history museum should open in 2021.<\/p>\n
