一战华工纪念馆是为纪念一战期间中国向欧洲战场派出的14万劳工而设立的永久性纪念设施。基地所在的海源公园曾是当年劳工出海的码头遗址。设计采用地景建筑的策略，将主要建筑体量埋入地下，从而最大程度保护了场地风貌的初始特征。设计构思尝试将场地特征与事件意义集结在一起，十字形的场地入口裂缝暗示着近代中国所处的十字路口。通过结构、设备以及构造技术的集成，达到中德高能效设计标准A级，成为国内首个被动式低能耗纪念馆项目。

The World War I Chinese Laborers Memorial Hall is a permanent memorial facility to commemorate the 140,000 Chinese laborers sent to the European battlefield during World War I. Haiyuan Park, where the base is located, was once the site of the wharf where laborers went out to sea. The design adopts the strategy of landscape architecture, with the main building volume buried underground, thus protecting the initial features of the site style to the greatest extent. The design concept attempts to integrate the site characteristics with the significance of the event. The cross-shaped entrance cracks suggest the crossroads of modern China. Through the integration of structure, equipment and construction technology, the museum has reached the Sino-German high energy efficiency design standard A, becoming the first passive low energy memorial project in China.
