About Szhk Science and Technology Project Isakhiwo Samahhovisi Esiphakeme

Iphrojekthi ye-Szhk Science and Technology iyisakhiwo samahhovisi esiphakeme e-Shenzhen, e-China. Isakhiwo esiyinhloko esingamamitha angama-250 sikhumbuza isimo esinwebekayo sesihlahla se-Chinese parasol, kanti ipodiyamu yezitolo yakheke njengezihlahla futhi ubuso bayo bangaphandle buhambisana namaqabunga e-parasol. Idizayini yakha umjikelezo wamahora angama-24 wezindawo zokuhlala, zokuzijabulisa nezokusebenza, ezinesikhungo sezempilo somphakathi, isitolo sezincwadi esiyindlu esihlahleni, isikhungo semidlalo kanye nesikhungo sobuciko. Ukungena komoya ngokwemvelo, amaphaneli obuso bangaphandle e-aluminium anezimbobo, uphahla lwepodiyamu oluluhlaza kanye nokufudumeza amanzi ngelanga phezu kophahla kunciphisa ukusetshenziswa kwamandla.

Unique Properties
This development is an important R&D exchange area, and the gateway between Shenzhen and Hongkong. This project is committed to creating a central hub in the Science and Technology Innovation Zone with international exchanges and regional integration. This project is intend to create a 24-hour living circle includes living, leisure and working spaces, combined with some special activity nodes, like community health center, treehouse bookshop, game center and art center.
Dimensions & Packaging
The design is tend to maximize the use of natural ventilation system to minimize use of air conditioning and also enhance outdoor and indoor space comfort, the perforated aluminum board use on the tower’s façade helps the reduction of co2 emission. And use roofing materials with high SRT values to reflect solar radiation to minimize urban heat island effect. The green podium’s roof improves the performance of roof insulation, effectively reduce the heat gain through the roof for the top floor. The energy saving effect is particularly significant in cold climate.
Additionally, in the podium façade, use daylight through glazed façade and skylight to minimize use of artificial lighting, and vertical fins effectively reduce solar heat gain through the façade to reduce cooling load and energy use. In the building roof, the rooftop solar hot water system is installed for apartments to generate hot water for bathroom to reduce electricity or gas use.
Inspiration
The 250m main building recalls the form and extending gesture of the Chinese parasol tree whilst also responding to the urban texture. The metaphor reflects on the concept of hospitality embracing talents around the world, and signaling shared prosperity between this two cities. The retail podium is shaped like trees to create a lively atmosphere, additionally, the façade of the podium is also echoing the leaves of the parasol trees.
Project Duration
The project will be built around May 2025, in Shenzhen, China.
