KUNSHAN CONSTITUTION PARK

Constitution Park is located in the cultural centre of downtown Kunshan, home to the metropolitan government buildings and plaza as well as the science museum and city park. The park is designed to offer a spatial experience of the history and spirit of the Chinese constitution and its relevance to Kunshan and its citizens. We needed to envisage a park that could accommodate a significant symbolic narrative; and formal, ritualized events as well offering space for socializing and relaxation. With only three months from design to construction, we worked intensively to produce a memorable site.
