Xinghua Community Center Multi Functional Offices

Xinghua Community Center

Xinghua Community Center is a shared public building in a historic hutong district of Beijing. The renovation places many uses in one space, including offices, meeting areas, art and fitness activities, rest areas for older residents and shared tools. Low-cost local materials are used for the walls and floors, matching the color and texture of the hutong. High exterior windows were replaced with square windows inside the existing openings, saving cost and energy. The low windows link the interior with the street and can be seen through by children. The gross floor area is 380 square meters.
