Linked Hybrid - Beijing MOMA 北京当代MOMA
Address: 1 Xiangheyuan Road, Dongzhimen, DongCheng District, Beijing
Chinese Address: 北京东城区东直门香河园路1号
Architect: Steven Holl and Li Hu
Program: 750 apartments, public green space, commercial zones, hotel, cinemateque,
kindergarten, Montessori school, underground parking.
Size: 220,000 sm
Year Finished: 2009
Named 2009 “Best Tall Building” in Asia & Australia Category by the Council on Tall Buildings and
Urban Habitat
For China, sustainable design isn't merely an interesting idea. It's necessary for controlling
energy usage in crowded and constantly expanding urban areas.
The recently completed Beijing Linked Hybrid designed by Steven Holl Architects, which will
support 2,500-plus residents with more than 700 apartments covering 1.6 million square feet in
eight linked towers, is a model for large-scale sustainable residential architecture. This complex
will have the largest geothermal heating/cooling and greywater recycling system of any residential
building in the world, which will stabilize the temperature within the complex of eight buildings, all
linked at the 20th floor by a “ring” of service establishments, like cafes and dry cleaners. A set of
dual pipes pumps water from 100 meters below ground, circulating the liquid between the
buildings’ concrete floors.
The result: The water-circulation system serves as a giant radiator in the winter and cooling
system in the summer. It has no boilers to supply heat, no electric air conditioners to supply cool.
The apartments also feature gray-water recycling — a process that’s just starting to catch on in
Beijing in much smaller buildings — to filter waste water from kitchen sinks and wash basins back
into toilets. It also has green roofs, filters to protect residents from pollution and large ponds to
harvest recycled rainwater.
However, for all its plaudits, the Linked Hybrid project has attracted many criticisms. Among them
is that its brand of green luxury won't come cheap. With apartments selling for 44,000 Yuan, or
$6,000, per square meter, it can only appeal to China's nouveaux riches, further creating social
division in what is already a deprived area of the city.

北京当代万国城(当代MOMA)
设计师：美国纽约哥伦比亚大学教授史蒂文•霍尔
这座位于东直门的庞大建筑群曾入选北京十大名楼，其八座塔楼均由天桥连接。该建筑占地22公顷，总建筑面积约66万平方
米，共有19栋住宅楼、1栋公寓、 2个会所及其他配套设施。万国城由国内外多位著名设计大师主持规划设计工作，并由日本
秋山宽负责园林景观设计，建筑吸收了当今国际先进的建筑艺术，体现民族风格，具有时代特色。
690套住宅、健身房、电影院、游泳池、酒吧、干洗店等共同构成了占地22万平方米的北京当代MOMA。 然而，这一大型建
筑综合体却没有空调、没有锅炉，660眼地热井彻底满足了它温度控制的需要。这些地热井深入地下100米深处的岩床，水流
在这里被加热或 冷却到60摄氏度，然后被抽回到混凝土地面下的热管对环境温度进行调节。这套系统在夏天能减少30％的能
源消耗，在冬天节省的能源更是高达40％。

The 220,000 square-meter Linked
Hybrid complex includes eight towers
linked by a ring of eight sky bridges
housing a variety of public functions.
The design by Steven Holl Architects
was created to counter current urban
developments trends in China so
instead of a sealed off private tower,
the Linked Hybrid forms a new
twenty-first century porous urban
space, inviting and open to the public
from every side.
The architects are aiming to achieve
LEED Gold Certification, making
Linked Hybrid one of the largest green
residential projects.
