TIC Art

Tic Art is an exhibition center designed as a public urban landmark. The design covers landscape, architecture, interior and products, and offers a comprehensive yet rhythmic spatial experience. Red bricks formed with 25 sets of molds are used across the building and the landscape, following the local clay brick tradition and lowering the construction cost. A double layer curtain wall combines ceramic bricks with a modern structural system, filters direct sunlight and reduces heat conduction. The building area is 8000 square meters and the landscape area is 16000 square meters.

The roof is not an enclosed space, but an open space where wind and consciousness can pass through. They hope that with the construction of this building, the residents will feel more light and wind than ever before, and that their daily life will be better.

A water channel runs through the quad and gathers spring water, roof runoff and treated sewage, which is cleaned further by a biofiltration wetland. Recreational and social spaces, including a basketball court, are placed among the filtration systems for staff use.
