Wuhan New Hope D10

The project is located at the end of Wuhan Binjiang Business District, adjacent to Erqi Yangtze River Bridge in the north and Yanjiang Avenue in the east. The exceptional geographical location makes it an important gateway to light up Wuhan Binjiang and the city skyline in urban planning. The total construction area of the project is about 320,000 square meters. There are two 190/250-meter high-rise commercial and office complexes on the east side along the river, three 140-meter residential buildings on the west side, and a cross-street flyover is reserved on the south side to connect to Jiangtan Park. The project realizes multi-format aggregation, and each function cooperates with the other.

The design fully considers the landmarks effect of the city when making the plan. The Erqi Bridge can achieve the best architectural image regardless of the distance. It respects the concept of the “gate to the sky” in the plan. On the tower, you can feel the grandeur of Erqi Bridge as a landmark building.

Focusing on the positioning needs of cultural heritage, ecological nature, and harmonious neighborhood, the architect placed the two towers for office, apartment, and hotel functions on the side of the river. The two towers continuously unfold along the river and have the best sightseeing view. The residences are arranged inside to reduce the hustle and bustle of the city, forming an enclosed layout with central greenery. According to the outline size, spacing, and orientation of the five towers, through the data calculation and comparison of multiple schemes, it is ensured that every household can enjoy the landscape.

The design inspiration comes from the allusion of “high mountains and flowing water” and abstractly interprets the overall layout and shape concept with modern architectural language. The tall ridgelines turn into rolling vertical lines, the converging streams turn into the horizontal centripetal cohesion of the buildings, and the majestic waterfalls turn into the vertical impact force of the buildings up and down, showing the magnificent momentum between different levels of change.
