IFF Convention Center, China

The newly completed Nansha permanent venue of the International Financial Forum (IFF) is located at the tip of Hengli Island in the Pearl Bay, with a total construction area of about 260,000 square meters. The IFF permanent venue consists of the IFF Convention Center, the IFF Convention Center Hotel, and supporting service buildings that cater to diverse needs such as conferences, banquets, performances, receptions, accommodation, and other services. Responding to the need for future development, the project has reserved exhibition spaces and media centers with top-tier equipment to meet the requirements of global and governmental conferences.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The design integrates the organic form of kapok, giving new vitality to traditional forms with modern architectural language. The main entrance is located at the center. From there, the building wings extend horizontally like a bird spreading its feathers, which, with the undulating roof, creates an atmosphere of grandeur and solemnity. A series of traditional Chinese architectural elements are abstractly represented in the architecture, such as the flying cornices and the bucket arches. Ship-shaped halls between the volumes bring in skylights and fresh air. The curtain below the glass roof is made of PTFE, which filters the sunlight gently and softens it. With such a transparent experience, visitors inside the building are connected to the sky, the earth, the city, and the sea.

 

 

 

 

 

 

There are two large halls on the second floor, the Meeting Hall and the Banquet Hall, which cover an area of 3000 square meters and can accommodate up to 3000 people. On the fourth floor, there are another two 1800 square meter halls, the Council Hall and the Multi-functional Hall, which can accommodate activities of the highest standard at the national level. More than 40 small and medium-sized conference rooms are distributed on the second to fourth floors, which can be combined and separated as needed to meet the needs of different parallel forums.
