Sinovac High-Tech Achievements Transformation Project

Life Science Park is the earliest life science industrial clusters in Beijing. As a national-level innovation base for biotechnology and new medical high-tech industries, it is accelerating the construction of the world's leading "Life Valley", and the Sinovac High-tech Achievement Transformation project is an important part of it. The project is located on the south side of the park, close to the Beijing-Tibet and Beijing-Xinjiang Expressways. The design draws inspiration from the tree of life, comparing the R&D and office towers on the south side to the roots of Sinovac, and the production plant towers on the north side to the crown of Sinovac. The leaf-shaped buildings are connected to each other through the backbone of Sinovac, which carries the corporate display function and public space. The air corridor connects the two parks in the north and the south, balancing the efficient flow of people and goods. The entire park is like pines and cypresses, and its vitality coincides with the concept of protecting life and delivering health. The simple building outline combined with the simple horizontal facade lines conveys its aesthetics of simplicity, technology and the future. Highlight the atmosphere and elegant corporate image. In order to correspond with Sinovac’s cultural symbols of health, the project proposed to create the link between the traditional high-efficient factory and humanistic care. Compared to a traditional factory, the loading bays and parking are placed underground, and the trucks and cars enter the basement directly from the road. It largely increases working efficiency. Also, it completely separates the freight and working environment. As a result, this minimizes the trucks and transportation on the ground. Maximum green areas and communal space can be placed on the ground floor to improve the working environment and amenities of staff. The traffic for staff and cargo is separated to ensure they are not intersected. This facilitates efficiency as well as safety. The facade of the building incorporates the use of a lot of clean energy while ensuring the design of the sense of technology. Solar panels are arranged on the roof combined with the louvers, and the energy is used in the operation of the entire park. According to the calculation of solar radiation, horizontal fin arranged on the building facade for sun shading, so as to reduce indoor energy consumption. Beijing is mostly northwest wind in winter and southeast wind in summer, and the building shape is adjusted through wind energy calculation. Multiple indoor and outdoor atrium spaces make the garden space of the park comfortable and pleasant. The overall design starts from the carbon emission of the whole life cycle of the building, including the embodied carbon emission of the building and the carbon emission of the building operation, and puts forward targeted measures to realize the real "zero CO2".
