"The Hengqin Cultural Center is big. It looks big, it feels big, and it is big. At almost a hundred and fifty thousand gross square meters, it is one of many recent buildings that embody China's ambition to be not only the world's largest economy, but also a place that does sports, entertainment, and culture in a big way. Standing in the middle of a city that was until less than two decades ago seabed and representing itself in abstractions of form, material, and structure that emphasize both its scale and newness, the Center is one of the most successful such facilities to have recently completed." -- Xu Yun Chao Designed and built by Atelier Apeiron Architects, this bilingual monograph, featuring interviews, critical texts and lavish diagrams and photography, provides an in-depth examination of the work's construction process, from conception to completion.
