Huafa West Headquarter is a mixed-use development consisting of an office tower and a talent apartment located in the central area of Jinwan Aviation Town, Zhuhai. Situated at the corner of two main trunk roads, its integrated rotating shape forms a harmonious interface with the surrounding streets, thus creating a welcoming aspect for visitors and users.
With the central lake area and the Jinwan Park just adjacent to the site, Huafa West Headquarter is aimed to compose a holistic community by exploring all these landscape benefits. This is cleverly achieved by splitting the required area into four rotating volumes with different levels. Through “Rotating” the office tower, it facilitates fascinating visuals of the landscape as well as forming two interesting and pleasant public realms, fostering the vitality of the community. The two distinctive public open realms thus serves respectively to the open public and to the people who work and live here.
The apartment tower is located on the west side of the site between a Nature Park and a rich water feature. Such positioning helps to obtain sufficient sunlight. The two apartment blocks are shifted with each other to break up the long alignment along the street. Vertical decorative elements are also applied to the facade in order to echo the same verticality of the office tower and thus unifying the entire development.
The intricate topology of the office tower not only strengthened the sculptural character of the building, but also provide flexibility to manage the blocks separately. Apart form the tallest block which will be occupied by Huafa Group, the other blocks are designated with independent circulations which will benefit the users who seek to rent only an individual block as their headquarter.
The interconnecting space brings great advantage and character to the whole compositional group. The orderly combination of different blocks creates a series of multi-level public spaces and viewing roof terraces which visually connect to the exterior landscape.
With its unique sculptural form, the Huafa West Headquarter is designed to be a fascinating city image to enrich Zhuhai’s skyline.
