We are concerned about common problems in several villages within 1.5km around "Woyun Platform ", which is also an important problem facing the development of urbanization in China and even the world - the decline and disappearance of rural traditional social order. The design of Woyun Platform puts forward the concept of "rural reception room". The whole ground floor of the building is overhead to form an open public place. It is hoped that it will become a space for villagers of different ages to gather, socialize and activities nearby. In addition, art exhibitions and cultural activities can also be held here to make local culture and avant-garde art meet, enhance the exchange and collision between urban and rural people, rebuild the relationship between city and countryside, man and nature, and realize the architectural ideal of "beauty and common, and the world is the same". 

At night, the dome light turns the white and soft cloud platform into a dreamy star universe. Therefore, we have carried out innovative and exploratory practice in the following six points. 

1.The circular curve is divided into 120 straight lines, and the building shell is divided into 2343 single surface, which reduces the wall thickness and construction cost of aluminum single plate without affecting the building effect;

2.Combined with the actual situation of local manufacturers, the aluminum veneer is split into a similar size within a specific range, and the smaller layout is combined to reduce the cost and uncontrollable risk (aluminum veneer production accuracy, construction and installation difficulty, etc.); 

3.The lighting device is installed inside the cavity at the back of the aluminum veneer to restore the atmosphere of the star universe through the change of the color of the light and the different combination of holes on the aluminum veneer; 

4.The overall effect is created. The meteor image created by the main entrance, the star image created by the overhead sunken square and the starry sky form a distinct relative relationship of "light and dark", which increases the visual depth of the building, and also endows the coordination and balance between the visible and hidden, interior and exterior of the three nodes.
