Zielone skrzynie umieszczono pomiędzy wieżami a korytarzami dla pieszych jako przestrzenie wspólne i wystawiennicze. Wśród materiałów znalazły się gips zbrojony włóknem szklanym oraz beton, panele aluminiowe i przeszklenia ścian osłonowych. Uwzględniono również system zielonego dachu.

Design Challenge
This concept was selected by the client for several reasons.
Primarily, this model was selected because it offers a more suitable business model for the client’s needs. In this option, there are more sellable spaces, with three residential towers: West SOHO, North LOFT, and East LOFT. By adding permanent residential program to the mixed use development, the client is able to presell the residential units before breaking ground. The sales of these units is what allows our client to finance the construction of the project and reduce their own financial investment.
This design is more pedestrian friendly. By breaking down the enclosed corners, pedestrians are more freely able to enter the retail space. By stepping back the retail levels into terraced tiers, the volume of the facade steps down to a more inviting human scale.
This design also offers a larger variety of program. Among the specialized program, is an additional overarching typology of Lifestyle retail. This new type of 24/7 walkable retail was a vital requirement for the client. This Lifestyle retail has to be street accessible, which the other concept did not offer.
Research
Neighboring the site are 5 programmatic sources that influenced the precedence for the client’s desired program. This Mixed Use project looks to condense this urban fabric into a new architectural typology of live/work/shop destination.

The design also includes family oriented entertainment complexes that are geared toward all age groups. Combined with customized and branded retail and restaurants, this venue serves as a destination for families in the future. Various theme restaurants are scattered around the mall. All of which create an unprecedented experience for local citizens of Zhengzhou, a northern city with dry climate, giving the building the highest degree of originality.

The overall result of concept is an interconnected community grounded in tradition, but poised for the future.
Inspiration
Haishang Plaza is very much like a cruise ship to set sail, it creates a new local landmark. Green boxes were embedded as a connection between the SOHO and LOFT towers and the pedestrian corridors and as communal/display spaces for people who live and work in the towers.
Project Duration
Fengqing Road Dongfeng Road Junction, Zhengzhou city
2014 – 2019
Operation Flow
This terraced massing design focuses on drawing pedestrians into its spaces by stepping back its corners and breaking down the urban fabric to human scale. This gesture creates prominent entrances into the plaza, while increasing street frontage visibility of the main shopping mall and the lifestyle retail. The addition of residential towers allows the client the ability to presell units to finance the construction of the mixed-use project. Soft horizontal lines of the swooping facade formally tie the towers to the podium, as well as visually encourage movement throughout its pedestrian streets.
