- As a "building material capital", Foshan enjoys a unique advantage in the Research and development and customization of new materials. A large number of modern and new building materials are used in the project, such as stainless steel, acrylic glass, artistic cement paint, cement brick and ceramic plate.
While designing the "City of the Future" on the 2nd floor, the design team took the bearing capacity of floor slabs into account, and hence chose lightweight stainless-steel materials for production. - Design Challenge
- While designing the "City of the Future" on the 2nd floor, the designers took the bearing capacity of floor slabs into account, and chose lightweight stainless-steel for production. However, the designers encountered with great difficulties during the production. Since the stainless steel is so hard that is suitable for making linear splicing and geometric shapes, it can only be processed by linear cutting, welding and machine polishing rather than getting the copies from the grotesque molds.
