Production Technology: Aluminum and glass curtain walls are the main materials in this project. Three dimensionally warped aluminum panels and glass panels are assembled to create the fisheye curtain wall.
Design Challenge: In the project, fisheye curtain wall is the most challenging design task. It has involved back wall structure, steel purlins, curved color glass, 3D aluminum covers from early concept stage to final implementation stage. On site testing and lighting experiments are also conducted to ensure the final result.
Research: The concept of TOD is enforced throughout the project to connect metro, bus, retail, office and serviced apartments to build a coherent mixed use project.
Inspiration: Sailing was the inspiration of the building shape. It caters to the ancient Hefei as a river harbor city. The tower form takes its origin from the shape of sail to create a dynamic skyline. The facade design refers to the form of boats; the metaphor being carrying people to happiness. Moreover, the design of fish-eye shaped double skin curtain wall with lighting has created a unique city image.
Project Duration: The project started in April 2016 in Hefei City, China and finished in December 2019 .
Operation Flow: Around the atriums and the 250-meter-long circulation, multiple anchor stores are laid out to activate the retail spine. The multilevel roof spaces provide an exterior experience for both the mall users and the apartment residents.
