Revival of Silo 2012 competition​​
Organizer: homemadedessert
Team: Jonathan Ngo, Janice Wong, Frank Chen


The goal of this entry is to re-imagine a former canning factory site in Redtory, Guangzhou, China with new and innovative ideas to programmatically and physically  contribute to the existing creative Redtory community. We divided the overall landscape into the existing "hardscape" of the canning facility and the "softscape" of the natural elements that we preserved and renewed.​

We kept the grandness of space within and beyond the site by preserving the existing integrity of the silo with its "natural" waterscape. We relate the bounding walls of the site to the Redtory by blurring its existence to serve the larger population of inhabitants in Redtory in addition to the staff, students and artists of silo.

​

Each corner of the site is designed to stay true with our first impression to the site, in which both the "hardscape" and "softscape" co-exist and brings out the charm of the other.
