Jiujiang University Engineering Labs Upgrade
Jiujiang, Jiangxi Province, China
Jiujiang University
Project 2021 – 2022
Denton Corker Marshall was commissioned to revitalise the facade of a series of buildings at Jiujiang University. This comprehensive project encompassed teaching facilities, an engineering lab, and a library, all originally constructed in the 1970s and 80s and showing signs of aging.
The design concept underpinning the project was the creation of stylistic unity across the campus while ensuring each building retained its unique character. This approach aimed at forging a harmonious yet diverse architectural narrative, contributing to the campus’s distinct identity. The proposals were to enhance the campus’s visual appeal, elevating the university’s image to attract potential students and staff. Modernising facilities to contemporary standards, aligns the physical campus with Jiujiang University’s progressive educational ethos.
Updated, aesthetically pleasing, and functionally superior spaces create an environment conducive to learning, academic achievement, and student experience. The design’s focus on sustainability and durability ensures the campus remains relevant and efficient for the foreseeable future.
