Guangzhou Airport Convention Center

Guangzhou Airport Convention Center

The convention facilities at the airport are an important industry that influences the economic trends within the airport economic zone. This convention center is approximately 340,000 square meters in size, with 12 blocks of exhibition halls arranged north-south across the concourses, and a conference center and related facilities located in the center. Guangzhou Baiyun Airport is the gateway to Guangzhou and the south China region, and this convention center is also located in a strategically important location close to the highway interchange. Therefore, a design that would be the face of the airport economic zone in both air and land was required.

The exterior design is inspired by the regional characteristics of Guangzhou culture, and depicts the city’s mountainscapes and the billowing clouds and the flow of the Pearl River. The roof surface is designed to take into account both the perspective from an airplane and the utilization of solar energy resources, and has solar photovoltaic panels arranged like clouds and the flow of water.

Based on the concept of "Park Convention," the plan is to integrate nature into the concourses within the facility and the entrance to the conference center, as well as onto the roof, so that it forms a continuous park-like space with the surrounding area. Together with the attached cafes and restaurants, it serves as a space that citizens and visitors can use on a daily basis.
