"As worms push through the soil, they form gentle paths, curving the earth into mounds similar to mountains. In response to this natural phenomenon, the team at Chinese architectural studio Change Architects created a building that ‘seems to be squeezed out of the ground by natural forces underneath the crust’ when designing the Chaohu Natural and Cultural Centre...Change Architects explains that ‘the logic of the architectural concept derived from the idea of natural elements’, the result of which is a structure that harmoniously blends with its environment, serving as a carrier for natural elements like light, rain and snow, and air."
