Kenzō Tange Lecture: Yichun Liu, “Re-Cultivating Industrial Sites: The Constructed Shapes of Time”

This lecture examines how architectural practice can engage with time through the reuse and reconfiguration of industrial fragments. Yichun will explore as case studies the Long Museum West Bund, the Modern Art Museum at Laobaidu Wharf, the 80,000-ton Silo Art Center, Riverside Passage, and the transformation of an intake facility island on Jianhu Lake. Across these works, spatial form and structural armatures can embody both the memory of the past and a renewed sense of public life. Rather than erasing traces of the past, these interventions cultivate material continuity and atmospheric resonance—embracing aging, transformation, and site-specific meaning. Building is approached not as the pursuit of novelty, but as a temporal reweaving, where structure, emotion, and landscape converge as constructed shapes of time. Speaker: Yichun Liu is the founding principal of Atelier Deshaus and a visiting professor at Tongji University and Southeast University. He also serves on the editorial boards of The Architect and Architectural Journal in China. Liu has been invited to lecture at institutions including Harvard University, the University of Virginia, the University of Hong Kong, the Académie d’Architecture in France, and the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA). In 2023, he received the Architecture China Award for Practice. His representative works—such as the Long Museum West Bund and Riverside Passage—have been widely published in international journals including a+u, Domus, Casabella, The Plan, Architectural Record, The Architectural Review, Architectural Design, Arquitectura Viva, and Archithese. 00:00 Introduction by Grace La 09:11 Lecture by Yichun Liu 01:05:53 Q+A
