AIM Architecture transforms oil silos in China into community park

Chinese studio AIM Architecture has transformed a series of former oil silos in Changzhou into Cotton Park, a mixed-use community space surrounded by a public garden and play areas.

Shanghai-based AIM Architecture was tasked with transforming the hollow silos into a cluster of spaces for the local community to gather and host events.

The four silos remain standing in a row with elements of their weathered-metal forms preserved, serving as a reminder of the area's industrial heritage.
