About MCC Shengshi International Plaza Edificio de uso mixto

MCC Shengshi International Plaza es un complejo de edificios de uso mixto situado en Zhuhai, Guangdong, China. El conjunto se levanta en la isla de Hengqin, cerca del Puente del Loto que conecta con Cotai, Macao. El desarrollo comprende dos torres de oficinas de gran altura, un podio comercial, un jardín en la azotea y una piscina. Su forma aerodinámica se inspira en el movimiento fluido del pez dragón. El diseño de la fachada evoca las olas del viento y emplea placas de aluminio onduladas que proporcionan sombra y favorecen el ahorro energético. Las cubiertas verdes mejoran el aislamiento y reducen la ganancia térmica en la última planta.
