Village Hall

The building intentionally avoids the vernacular architectural style, and applies modern materials and structure. A big floating roof unifies the formal and informal spaces in a simple way, like a giant open umbrella.

With several structural innovations, a hybrid structure mimics umbrella cantilevers are formed.
