Jingdezhen Imperial Kiln Museum by Studio Zhu Pei in Jingdezhen, China is ocated in the historic center of Jingdezhen beside the Ming and Qing imperial kiln ruins, the Jingdezhen Imperial Kiln Museum draws directly from the city's centuries-old porcelain-making heritage.
The museum is composed of a series of vaulted structures inspired by the traditional form and scale of local kilns.
Brick vaults of varying size, length, and curvature are connected by courtyards, creating a continuous sequence of indoor and outdoor spaces. With parts of the museum extending underground, the architecture establishes a spatial connection between the historic kiln remains, the surrounding city, and Jingdezhen's ceramic culture.
