The project is located at Jiangyin city on the edge of the Yangtze River. Designers create an urban art experience center. It is hoped that it will represent the development and take-off of the city. Therefore, it is named as the "Flying”. The whole design concept revolves around the “flying over the water surface”, introducing the natural elements of the Yangtze River water into the pool landscape. Looking at the whole building, the design of the structure is like a pair of flying wings, full of power and rhythm. The cantilever structure is adopted, and no column net is seen from the appearance. The exterior material is made of white and gray aluminum plate with beige marble, which makes the geometric shape run through the indoor and outdoor space. In the combination of the two major building blocks, the surrounding spatial moving line includes a large area of waterscape. The center of the waterscape is designed with a quiet path that runs through the multi-functional display experience area. The mirrored infinity pool on both sides of the trail serves as a unique natural landscape, strengthening the overall relationship between the building and the water symbiosis.
