Hitomi of the Future - Hitomi Series Architecture

A master craftsman builds a landmark of urbanization

The project is located in the core area of the Future Hitomi Project in the Central Innovation District, adjacent to the planned 37th Road to the west and the circular water surface of the Future Hitomi to the east, with a planned net land area of approximately 139.8 mu and a total construction area of nearly 200,000 square metres. The core function of the project is the Cultural Arts Centre (Grand Theatre). The project also includes a science and technology centre and a city exhibition hall, which will be connected through the underground space to form an undivided building complex and create a cultural landmark for the future Hitomi area.

The Hitomi of the Future series is designed by Wang Shu, the first Chinese architect to win the Pritzker Prize, the highest international award in the field of architecture, and an advisor to the Xi'an Municipal Government on urban planning and construction. The design is based on the intention of reflecting the city and the mountains and the water, with the undulating mountain form corresponding to the Qinling mountain range and the radial urban form of the " Hitomi of the future", creating an intimate urban art space in the form of a geodesic landscape.

The Cultural Arts (Grand Theatre) Centre contains a 1600-seat opera hall, a 1200-seat concert hall, a 1000-seat experimental theatre and a 300-seat comprehensive rehearsal hall, and is a comprehensive cultural arts centre with complete professional functions that can accommodate various art forms such as opera, drama and theatre. The centre will also be complemented by arts education and commercial space to maximise the public's cultural needs and artistic experience. It will also integrate the world's top cultural and artistic resources, gather the performing arts industry chain, create international standard IP productions, build a city-level cultural landmark and contribute to the prosperous development of the regional cultural economy.
