PES-ARCHITECTS UNVEILS CONTEMPORARY
CULTURAL & ART CENTRE IN CHINA
The latest project of Helsinki and Shanghai-based firm, PES-
Architects is a phenomenal Strait Culture and Art Centre in Fuzhou,
China, comprised of five buildings whose design and structure were
inspired by the petals of jasmine blossom, a coveting symbol of the
city. The firm used custom-developed ceramic tiles and louvres in
order to create the overlapping effect of the flower and its curvaceous
lines. A 1,600-seat opera house, a 1,000-seat concert hall, a 700-seat
multi-functional theatre, an exhibition gallery and a cinema centre
will be a part of this remarkable project.
