About Greenland Wuhan Harper Riverside Residència a la vora del riu

Greenland Wuhan Harper Riverside és un complex residencial a la vora del riu situat a Wuhan, la Xina. El desenvolupament consta de quatre edificis de gran alçada, dos d'ells de 150 m d'alçada i dos de 180 m. La façana segueix l'estil dels edificis públics i combina plaques metàl·liques d'alumini, revestiments texturitzats i murs cortina de vidre. Una estructura de nucli central amb bastida situa totes les columnes estructurals a l'exterior, de manera que els espais interiors no tenen murs de tallant i permeten distribucions flexibles. Els amplis balcons amplien les vistes. Els sistemes intel·ligents de ventilació i lliurament afavoreixen una manera de viure sostenible.

Design Challenge
The challenge is how to reach a balance of technical safety, functionality, comfort and economical efficiency of super high-rise residence, as the project has an advantaged location. The public shared space is relatively large in super high-rise residence. In order to maximize the area, the structure uses a core tube frame.
Research
The project stands at core riverside area of Yangtze River axis, enjoying the best viewing position. Its land value decides that the project must be a landmark luxury development.
