Design Exploration of the Club Building in Lingnan-Case Study on the Tennis-badminton Center Club in Guangzhou

In the architectural climate zoning, Lingnan belongs to the hot-hwnid regions. Lingnan region is also a hilly area and there are many buildings are located in the slopes. Combined with the case study on the design of the Tennis-badminton Center Club at Science City in Guangzhou which is a typical city in Lingnan, this study analyzed and summarized the climate-adapted design strategies in the hot-humid region, and the design strategies for hilly terrain. The proposal and usage of these design strategies could protect the environment, save operating energy consumption, while creating the wonderful space and the comfort environment in the building. The design exploration was tried to create the contemporary and regional "new Lingnan architecture" by combining the new building materials, the new construction technology and the space technique of the traditional Lingnan architecture. Furthermore, this study concluded that, the core design idea to build the "New Lingnan architecture" is to adapt to climate of Lingnan.
