Located in the center of Wuhan China, the project is currently under construction. Inspired by the theme “Blossom” to symbolize the growth and development of this time-honored city, the high-rise office tower (221.9m) with two high-rise residential are thoughtfully arranged to maximize daylight conditions and form a significant mark of Hankou. The design not only reflects on the visual appearance like shape, light design and a harmonious ensemble, but also other factors such as cost-effectiveness, sustainability, easy traffic access and comfort.

The tower façade featured high efficiency, economy building cost and easy maintenance. To reduce energy loads of the tower, efficiency measures of low-E glass and reflective coatings for the envelope as well as finding synergies with the HVAC system were adopted. For two residential buildings, oriental elements and principles are applied in the choice of material, color tone, natural lighting, and enjoyable landscape.
The architectural design shows a new language for the city by bringing memorable and unique characteristics to the buildings, and also directly responds to the local site and its neighborhood, bringing residents a touch of nature, comfort and happiness.
