Zhubei Biomedical Park forms a beautiful research and incubation environment. The design is based on the concept of " bio-core “, which explores how architecture can inspire to behave like living organisms in response to its environmental conditions. Programmatically the project provides a creative research platform for the biotechnology industry, while incorporating sustainable green energy, technological imagery and humanistic concepts, to elevate organic architecture to a new level of holistic consciousness.
The exterior design of the building considers the environmental factors to stagger the volumes to enhance shading and ventilation, and through parametric daylighting analysis, translates the response into a rhythmic fenestration pattern.
The interior the building incorporates communication and sharing as the design concept with the research units organized around a central atrium. The atrium features a grand stair that has a comfortable width and generous landings to serve as impromptu meeting spaces.The north-facing, fully-glazed atrium wall allows ample light to enter during the day while interior lighting transforms the space into a beacon at night.
