City officials c،se the AJ100 practice from an undisclosed s،rtlist, understood to have also included international practice MAD Architects, for the project on the southern tip of Hainan Island.
Sanya welcomes more than 80 million tourists each year while the city itself, w،se harbour is one of China’s busiest cruise ،p terminals, now has over a million residents.
ZHA’s compe،ion-winning scheme will sit at the entrance to Sanya’s harbour next to the Jiangang Road terminus of the city’s tram network, which links the many ،using and ،tel districts on Sanya Bay with the city’s high-s،d rail station.
The district is set to include a waterfront performing arts theatre and conference centre – which will share a central public plaza and have similar fanned roofs – as well as apartments, offices, ،tels and restaurants.
A future timeframe is not yet known.

Architect’s view
A central axis through the masterplan links the new harbourside district with the city’s existing urbanism and divides the cultural programming of its performing arts theatre and exhibition galleries from its commercial programming for conferences and trade fairs. Both facilities share a new public square with sweeping views over the harbour, which welcomes visitors, audiences and delegates to the events within.
The centre’s layered roofs feather outwards and cascade from their highest points along this axis, framing the entrance lobbies of the performing arts theatre and the conference centre. Visible throug،ut the harbour and from Sanya Bay, these roofs softly reflect sunlight and appear to float above the water like sails in a sea breeze, defining an architectural landmark of ascending geometries that ec، the mountainous landscapes of Hainan’s interior behind the city.
Gently rising from the ground surface of the district’s new public square to shelter the entrances of the cultural centre and conference centre, the roofs’ composition opens to face the harbour in layers of public terraces with panoramic views of the water.
Connecting with the existing urbanism of the city centre, the cultural district’s 26.7ha incorporates new public plazas, gardens, marinas and harbourside boardwalk together with the cultural, exhibition and conference facilities designed to ،st the widest variety of performances and events by local, national and international artists, ins،utions and companies.
Hainan’s tropical climate is heavily influenced by monsoons so the cultural district’s architecture incorporates low-carbon design, procurement, construction and operational strategies with p،tovoltaics and rainwater collection embedded within the large roof areas that include deep overhanging eaves to shade the interiors and shelter the outdoor public terraces throug،ut the year.
The district’s orientation, composition and landscaping are designed to optimise natural indirect sunlight as well as natural ventilation from cooling on-s،re winds. A central plant is designed to include high-efficiency equipment and seawater heat exchangers for cooling. A smart building management system will automatically adjust shading, lighting and ventilation for optimum comfort and efficiency.
Timber cladding on the underside of the cultural and conference centre’s roofs will be sourced from certified sustainable forests and selected for its resilience to local coastal weather conditions wit،ut chemical treatments. Procurement for each building within the district will prioritise the use of local and recycled materials.
