RESEARCH ABSTRACT:
The rebuilding concept is based on the relationship between architecture and nature. On the one hand, the design team chose the raw materials of nature – timber, which is also the original bearing structure of the old building. On the other hand, they utilized large area glass to allow nature permeate into the room. Through the glass, guests are able to enjoy the beauty of the seasons as well as the Great Wall.

CHALLENGE:
The depth of it was quite small, about 4.2 meters. Obviously, the small space was not able to satisfy the new functional need. Therefore, the design team extended a multi-function hall by timber construction in the southeast corner, which is closed to the original annex. And the key problem in design is how to minimize the effect of newly built part on the historical building. In the end, the design team decided to remain the strategy of light construction, which is what they have been studying and practicing.
