"Little Lotus" is located in this area, called "Hangzhou Olympic Sports Expo City", covering an area of 5.83 square kilometers.
This expo city has always attracted much attention as the "main battlefield" of the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games.
According to the official statement, the overall plan of the project adopts the traditional Chinese "Big Dipper" intention, which complements the Qianjiang New City's "Sun and Moon Tonghui" intention across the Qiantang River.

Didn’t see the "Big Dipper" and "Sun and Moon"?
Don't worry, I will give you an analytical version.
▲ Hangzhou Olympic Sports Expo City Astrological plan analysis version
This plan is very "Chinese style thinking", not only adopts the traditional astrological "Big Dipper" intent, but also refers to many concrete objects in the architectural shape.
In addition to the "Little Lotus" Tennis Center, there are also several super gimmicks built here: the "Big Lotus" main stadium with 80,000 people, the "wings" swimming pool, the "inverted pants" twin towers and the "ritual jade cong" "Comprehensive Training Hall. This set of mature "intention" design logic of
makes people feel that a plan with Chinese characteristics is gradually taking shape.
"Big Dipper Seven Stars" refers to seven super high-rise landmarks, of which the two stars "Tianquan and Tianji" are the two towers (the gates of the city), the gate of Hangzhou designed by the old American architecture firm SOM.

are 310 meters high. When reflected on the water, they look like a capital "H", which seems to echo the pinyin of the initials of the word "Hang".
▲Hangzhou Olympic Sports Expo City Twin Towers
As the saying goes: There is heaven above, and Suzhou and Hangzhou below.
When you look at the "Chiaoku Lou" in Suzhou and the "Inverted Longpants" under construction in Hangzhou together, there is always a feeling that the two brothers "will not accept the other".

The bottom span between the two towers is about 60 meters, and the middle is connected by a steel structure arch bridge of about 22 meters.

Big Dipper’s three stars, "Shaking Light, Kaiyang, and Yuheng", are three super high-rise commercial office buildings with heights of 200 meters, 170 meters and 150 meters.
Their design is based on the development of the subway Olympic sports station under the building. This kind of public transportation-oriented development is generally called the "TOD mode."

The design concept of "subway + property" is the biggest commercial highlight of Olympic Sports Expo City. The planning and design of the entire base of
is positioned on the subway superstructure. Whether it is an overhead floor, an underground commercial or an underground parking garage, the two subway stations are deployed as hubs and the traffic is connected.

Haven't been "stunned" after reading the "Big Dipper"? Let's take a look at these concrete sports venues.

uses a concrete object as a design reference, and it has increasingly become a feature of Chinese design.
For example, the giant lantern China Pavilion at the Dubai World Expo in 2020, like Yuruyi’s National Ski Jumping Center.

▲The design of traditional Chinese utensils: this style of "desirable but not grounded 4" zzz11 At least the two aspects of design and culture have begun to merge.
In addition, in Chinese tradition, all things must be beautiful, and good intentions are equal to half of success.

This kind of "intentional design" is good or not, I have to leave time to comment.
Buildings that have been baptized by the years must have some merits.
Finally, let’s end with a Chinese-style rendering.
