Guangzhou Julong Bay
Guangzhou Julong Bay is an exhibition center created inside four brick warehouses built in the 1950s on the west bank of the Pearl River. The former granary buildings keep their original structure and materials, while customized handmade clay bricks complete the new parts. A large-span steel frame and a sloping glass curtain wall form a canopy above the parallel barns, joining them into one flexible interior of 5000 square meters. The steel structure extends to the ground on both sides to form a corridor open to the riverside landscape and the existing plants.
Guangzhou Julong Bay Exhibition Center by Ann Yu was selected as an innovative example of architectural design by the A' Design Award & Competition. Guangzhou Julong Bay Exhibition Center earned the Silver A' Design Award in Interior Space and Exhibition Design in 2023. The A' Interior Space, Retail and Exhibition Design Award is an international, juried, academic and meritocratic design competition which celebrates excellent design of residential interiors, restaurants, hotels, offices, galleries, retail stores, showrooms, exhibition spaces and more.
