Bridging a technology brand with a cold-climate city, this project aims to redefine urban commercial aesthetics. The store is strategically positioned at a prime location on Jianshe Street in Daoli District, Harbin, a commercial hub with a daily footfall exceeding 150,000. Bordered by the century-old Central Street to the east and overlooking the scenic Songhua River waterfront to the west, the project forms a commercial triangle with Euro Plaza and MYKAL Department Store, establishing itself as a landmark in Harbin’s commercial landscape.
Standing 39.8 meters tall, the eight-story structure merges a steel framework with a concrete core, commanding attention at a crossroads and establishing itself as a striking urban landmark. With a facade spanning approximately 1,800 square meters, this is HUAWEI’s first flagship store in Harbin to occupy a standalone building of over 1,000 square meters—its commercial scale surpassing local counterparts by 60%. Infused with cutting-edge technology, it activates the commercial potential of the historic neighborhood, shaping a new urban icon that balances global sophistication with local heritage.
