| DESIGN NAME: Dongtou Passenger Port PRIMARY FUNCTION: Cruise Terminal INSPIRATION: The Dongtou passenger port draws inspiration from the curvilinear forms of seashells, integrating the morphological essence of Buddhist grottoes to craft the poetic concept of "Maritime Mirage of Sacred Caves." Resembling a colossal shell cradling a pearl, the structure materializes as a mirage-like seascape. Through layered archways and streamlined shell-like volumes, it enhances its landmark identity as a pilgrimage gateway while transcending Buddhist cultural motifs into contemporary poetics. UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Located at Tantou moutain Bay in Dongtou, the site links urban and scenic zones. Guided by the "Symbiosis of Mountain and Sea" concept, terraced setback buildings and vegetated slopes blend mountain and sea to create a three-dimensional space.
