The Jiangxia mixed-use project integrates the surrounding landscape and optimise pedestrian flows within a constrained L-shaped site. It aims to activate the public areas and establish a contemporary urban landmark.
The design positions the office tower at the street corner, rotated 45 degrees to align with the landscape axis. The architectural form outlines a three-dimensional Möbius loop, connecting the surrounding mountains and water. The façade features a gradient interplay of copper-toned aluminium lines and Low-E glass, evoking the image of sunset reflections on the river.
A faceted curtain wall system integrates concealed operable vent to maintaining visual integrity. Shared interactive spaces are introduced every two to three floors, with a sky-viewing gallery at the top. The design promotes interaction and extends greenery indoors, creating a humane working environment.
The commercial podium creates a layered retail experience through street-facing retail. While continuing the architectural language of the tower, the streamlined architecture form naturally guides pedestrian flow toward the core area. A leisure plaza at the street corner captures foot traffic from the metro and adjacent park, while providing a vibrant social space for the city. This effectively enhances commercial vitality and establishes a new lifestyle destination in Jiangxia.
