About Hengqin International Financial Center Mnara wa Matumizi Mchanganyiko

Hengqin International Financial Center ni mnara wa matumizi mchanganyiko uliopo katika Kisiwa cha Hengqin CBD. Jengo hili linachanganya shughuli za ofisi, mikutano, maonyesho, makazi ya ghorofa na biashara ya rejareja katika umoja mmoja. Ukipata msukumo kutoka kwa mchoro wa kale wa Kichina unaojulikana kama ramani ya Kowloon, mnara huu una umbo la mzunguko unaoendelea unaopanda kutoka ardhini na kugawanyika katika mataji manne. Urefu wake unafikia mita 339, na mpango wa sakafu ya kawaida una upana na kina cha mita 44.8. Uundaji wa kidijitali na usanifu wa vigezo (parametric design) vilitumika kurahisisha paneli za uso wa jengo na kudhibiti gharama za ujenzi.

Unique Properties
The project is located in Hengqin CBD Island and classified as comprehensive mix-used land, including office, conference, exhibition, apartment and retail. All functions are planned as a whole to forge the project into landmark building.
Inspired by the "Kowloon map", the project has a unique, continuous and spiral shape rising from the ground to the sky to express speed, power, and vitality. The design is an attempt at embodying a convergence of energy in architectural form.
Dimensions & Packaging
The height of the project is 339.0 meters. The typical floor plan of the tower is 44.8 meters depth and width.
Production Technology
In order to achieve this unique form, lots of digital technologies have been applied. We used 3d modeling software to create continuous freeform which splits into 4 tower crown from an elegant shape. By using parametric design technology and coding calculation, detailed façade panels were designed and rationalized to achieve both appearance and economic efficiency. We also minimized the type of glass used in this project and successfully guaranteed the smooth construction and cost control.
Research
The design team has conducted in-depth research on the local history and urban development history of Zhuhai, and also conducted a lot of design test to capture the most suitable traditional image for this site. For different traditional cultural images, the design team has done related massing study to determine the final design through comparison and analysis.
Inspiration
The most innovative part of the project is its unique and powerful shape, which is inspired by an ancient Chinese painting “Kowloon map” and realized with plenty of digital techniques.
In order to achieve such elegant form, state-of-the-art digital techniques are used to rationalize the complex shape. All façade of the project is digital rationalized to ensure construction efficiency and cost control. This is a combination of traditional Chinese totem and contemporary architecture development.
Project Duration
The project is designed from 2013 to 2015. The construction is started in February 2016 and finished in March 2020 in Zhuhai, Guangdong, PRC.
