aoe's proposed Deep Sea Museum and Sports Center in Sanya Yazhou Bay Science and Technology City. The competition entry is a cutting-edge project that combines sustainable design, immersive experiences, and public access.
The building design features a stepped, wave-shaped roof that doubles as a civil park with lush greenery. This green roof provides an attractive public space for visitors to enjoy while also helping to mitigate the urban heat island effect, reducing energy consumption, and improving air quality.
To promote natural ventilation in the tropical climate of Sanya Yazhou Bay, the building incorporates large openings, operable windows, and louvers that can be adjusted according to the weather conditions. The sun-shading roof terrace further mitigates solar heat gain while providing outdoor spaces for visitors to relax.
