Judges’ Comments
l HUANG Weixiang
Secretary of the Party Committee and Director of Keqiao Branch of Shaoxing Natural Resources and Planning Bureau
The overall grasp of this competition is very accurate. This competition included almost the most important planning and architectural institutions in China, and also attracted many internationally renowned design institutions. I believe that they will be able to bring a high-quality planning and design to Jianhu.
l JIN Bin
President of Shaoxing Institute of Land and Space Planning
Jianhu has now reached a new period where the new flourishing of Jianhu is to be used as a turning point for further enhancement, so this competition is very necessary, its theme is accurate and it stands at a very high starting point. The event is meaningfully and successfully organised.
How to bring the water culture of Jianhu from concept to earth and reposition it in the city, in tourism, in the Greater Bay Area, and in industry and livability is, I think, a very important issue indeed.
l CAO Jiaming
Vice Chairman of the Architectural Society of China, Chairman of the Architectural Society of Shanghai
“I was very impressed with the proposal for this competition. It is precisely because of the attention of government authorities that this competition is so attractive. Shaoxing Jianhu has too many ‘treasures’, and how to form a clear brand with so many ‘treasures’ has become a new topic.”
l BAO Zhiyi
Director of the Chinese Society of Landscape Architecture, Honorary Dean of the School of Landscape Architecture, Zhejiang Agriculture and Forestry University
“We need to look at Jianhu, water system, and cultural landscape from a perspective beyond Shaoxing. I was pleasantly surprised to see individual participants from several countries around the world, who brought extremely original perspectives.”
l CAO Yuejin
Engineering Survey and Design Master of Zhejiang Province, Vice President of Zhejiang Province Institute of Architectural Design and Research
“It is hoped that in the next stage, macro concepts such as “Zhejiang builds a cultural province” and “common prosperity” can be added, and the design team can join cultural tourism units and industrial operation units to form an excellent plan that can be truly implemented.”
l MA Weidong
Chinese Partner of Tadao Ando Architect & Associates, Founder of IAM
“We have seen many wonderful ‘ideal concepts’ and hope that the next phase will enrich the conditions of status quo and bring the ideal and the reality together.”
l ZHOU Jian
President of Shanghai Tongji Urban Planning and Design Institute, Director of Urban Planning Society of China
“The grand plan is multidimensional. It is not just a tourist resort or a scenic area, but also contains diverse industries and an overlay of culture and life—how can a multi-dimensional area be organised in terms of space, function and transport? This is a challenge!”
