International Islands Tourism Conference Multifunctional Area

International Islands Tourism Conference

International Islands is a conference center located in Zhoushan, Zhejiang Province, China. The Maritime Silk Road is the main theme of the design. The building form derives from Tang and Song traditions and adopts the classic ratio and pattern of the roof and wall of the Tang Dynasty. Slightly inclined walls follow the traditional method of thick lower pillars and thin upper pillars. White stone at the base contrasts with the natural-color cornice. The spanning form links the mountains with the sea, and an open landscape corridor brings greenery to the city.
