Wang Zengqi Memorial Hall—A Rotating Staircase with a Unique Steel Structure
The project is located at the Wang Zengqi Memorial Hall in Gaoyou, Jiangsu. Designed by the Architectural Design and Research Institute of Tongji University, the building embodies the design concept of “a box containing a pearl,” featuring seven staggered volumes that, when viewed from a distance, resemble seven stacks of open manuscripts. Inside this building steeped in literary atmosphere, two highly sculptural, dark-colored spiral staircases wind upward from either side, serving as the artistic focal points of the space.
