The idea of sustainable residence is introduced into the design to consider the relationship among people, architecture and healthiness. The building is equipped with many smart systems, like ventilation system, intelligent express delivery system, etc.
Design Challenge: The challenge is how to reach a balance of technical safety, functionality, comfort and economical efficiency of super high-rise residence, as the project has an advantaged location. The public shared space is relatively large in super high-rise residence. In order to maximize the area, the structure uses a core tube frame.
Research: The project stands at core riverside area of Yangtze River axis, enjoying the best viewing position. Its land value decides that the project must be a landmark luxury development. Considering the architecture should harmonize with the city, the design adopts a simple and majestic facade to echo the urban surface of the area and improve the urban taste.
