NorthGlass VIP Reception Building: Setting Sail on a Voyage of Global Connection
Nestled within the NorthGlass High-end Equipment Industrial Park stands a uniquely designed VIP Reception Building, quietly poised by the edge of an artificial lake. Entirely white and covering a total area of 1,900 square meters, the structure resembles a “yacht on the water,” appearing to float partially above the lake’s surface. From afar, it seems either ready to set sail or gently come to berth—motion and stillness interwoven—revealing a striking tension and architectural elegance.

The VIP Reception Building features a three-level layout. On the first floor, there is one main private dining room and five smaller ones, with a total of 10 dining tables—ideal for business receptions, meetings, and informal discussions. Floor-to-ceiling windows open up to panoramic lake views, seamlessly blending nature with the interior space to create an atmosphere that is both private and open. The basement level houses a staff cafeteria that can accommodate up to 200 people. A large overhead aquarium is embedded into the ceiling, with lake water and fish gliding above, casting shimmering reflections onto the tables below—an immersive and vibrant dining experience.The second floor offers a versatile multi-functional area of approximately 400 square meters, accompanied by two lakeside terraces (measuring 120㎡ and 200㎡ respectively). This space is primarily used for hosting meetings, conferences, and various social or professional events.

The design of the VIP Reception Building uses “water” as a medium throughout the whole design. The reflection of the building on the lake changes with the light and shadow; the curtain wall brings the scenery into the room, expanding the spatial experience; the aquarium creates an immersive experience of virtual and real blending. The water element and the glass material complement each other, reflecting NorthGlass’ innovative ability in space design and material application, and conveying the thinking of humanistic care and natural symbiosis.
