Born With Legend
Born With Legend is a community center in the Gulou District of Xuzhou, China. The building serves the surrounding old neighborhoods, which lack public facilities. The interior space and the outdoor venue form two rectangular areas that are joined by a curved plane. Rounded corners and white enamel aluminum plates unify the facade. The entrance is marked by umbrella-shaped pillars topped with a white metal grille and a wall of solid glass bricks. The second floor is enclosed by ceiling-high glass panels.
