About Feng Xi Metropolis Plot 5 Centro Comercial
O Feng Xi Metropolis Lote 5 é um centro comercial em Xi'an, China. O empreendimento ocupa 100.779 metros quadrados num terreno de 33.601 metros quadrados e atinge uma altura de 38,5 metros. Um sistema de cortina de água forma uma cascata no átrio central, e bicos de nebulização irrigam as plantas pendentes. Um espelho de água de captação funciona como reservatório e é reabastecido à medida que as plantas são regadas. Escadas rolantes expressas e elevadores panorâmicos de vidro conectam sete níveis a uma cobertura verde ao ar livre. A claraboia combina vidro isolante de baixa emissividade com defletores de alumínio para reduzir a incidência direta da luz solar.
