Tadao Ando reveals design for He Art Museum in China



Pritzker Prize-winning architect Tadao Ando has released visuals of the He Art Museum in Shunde, China, which opens later this year.
The He Art Museum, or HEM, will be made from a series of stacked disks and will have a double helix spiral staircase at its centre.
Tadao Ando has released images of the He Art Museum
Running from the ground floor to the fourth, this staircase frames a central oculus that turns this core into a lightwell.
Photos released by Ando's studio show the concrete frame of the double helix staircase in situ. HEM is due to open in March 2020.
The museum will be based around a concrete staircase
The four overlapping circular storeys will form HEM's asymmetric profile. At the base there will also be a square exhibition space. HEM will be a showcase for the art and culture of the Lingnan region, which includes Guangdong, Guangxi, and Hainan.
The staircase is a double helix
The museum is funded by Midea Group director He Jianfeng, son of billionaire He Xiangjian. He, or ? in Chinese characters, means harmony, balance and union ? words Ando said he took as a starting point for his design.

"I want to create a museum that can synthesise southern China's rich diverse cultures that stretches many millennia and the influences that birthed Lingnan architecture," said Ando.
"I imagined HEM as an energetic central anchor point to all the artistic and regional custom, climate, landscape and civilisation in Lingnan."
HEM is set to open in March
