Formerly the site of Xuelang Steel Mill, Wuxi Studios is a prime example of adaptive reuse. After renovation, it now serves as a world-class film production facility for Wuxi, a coastal city of Jiangsu, China. Wuxi Film Studio nicknamed “Chinawood Studios” is a careful integration of commercial film technology with a leisure destination that creates a “movie city” featuring an entertainment district, retail, dining and a multiple-screen cinema along with other cinema technology-based attractions. The 180,000 m2 film production studios features state of the art facilities, as well as the world’s largest sound stage. For this complex project, Nvision assembled a program and conceptual design for the main facility, branding, retail & entertainment destinations, creative work-live lofts, attractions and public areas. Opened in June of 2012, it is expected that more than 30 films will be released annually in Jiangsu utilizing these full-service global production facilities. The facility is now being operated by the California Based Raleigh Studios.
