I-UNICO Café by Xian Qujiang South Lake ikwikona esemazantsi-ntshona eSouth Lake Park. Yalungiswa kancinci yiGuo Xin Spatial Design Studio. Njengendawo edumileyo yokungena epakini, ingcinga yayo ephambili yoyilo "kukujongana nobudlelwane phakathi kwesakhiwo kunye nembonakalo engqongileyo ngolwimi olulula nolwendalo, kunye nokufezekisa ukubonakaliswa okudibeneyo kweendawo zangaphakathi nezangaphandle". Kule projekthi,Iglasi ye-Uayisiyonto yokuhombisa nje kuphela, kodwa yindlela ephambili edibanisa imbali kunye nolwanamhlanje, kunye nobunzima kunye nokukhanya.

Iglasi ye-UIguqula ukukhanya kwelanga ngqo kube kukukhanya okuthambileyo okusasazekayo, okungagcini nje ngokuthintela ukukhanya okubangelwa kukukhanya okunamandla kodwa kuqinisekisa ukukhanya okufanayo nokukhanyayo ngaphakathi, okudala imeko-bume yamava ekofu ekhululekileyo. Olu phawu lokukhanya luhambelana ngokugqibeleleyo nombono wendalo weSouth Lake, okuvumela utshintsho oluthambileyo phakathi kweendawo zangaphakathi nezangaphandle.

Uyilo olutsha kakhulu lukwimigca yokukhanya efihlakeleyo etshintsha umbala ngaphakathi kweglasi enomfanekiso we-U, eguqule udonga lwegumbi lokuhlambela lokuqala lwaba ngumphezulu womboniso wophawu:

• Xa ikhanyiswe ebusuku,Iglasi ye-Uiba ngumzimba okhazimlayo ogcwele udonga, njengesibane sasezidolophini;
• Umsebenzi wokutshintsha imibala uvumela isakhiwo ukuba sibonakale ngeendlela ezahlukeneyo ebusuku, nto leyo etsala ingqalelo yabantu abadlulayo;
• Ukukhanya kuhluza ngeglasi ekhanyayo ukuze kwenze ukukhanya okuthambileyo, okuhambelana kakuhle nobuhle bepaki yasebusuku.
