The overall development comprises office, residential and commercial. Aedas team, led by Global Design Principal Dr. Andy Wen and Executive Director Yijun Qian, designs the super high-rise tower and retail street. The design promotes the integration of ‘sharing, connectivity and greenery’, to maximise the use of the L-shaped plot and to meet the urban planning requirements.
To deliver an efficient commercial experience, the 250m high-rise tower that consists of office and hotel marks the highest point and urban icon within the district. The tower drew inspiration from the poetic Wuhan and authentic cultural symbol - having cranes flying in the clouds around towers. The slightly curved linear architectural form features a Chinese cornice-like crown on top, and a horizontal metal void in the middle of the façade. Glittering in the night, the crown mimics the energetic crane flying above the golden cloud.
The podium adopts a L-shape layout, stacked by various blocks and linked by golden fins echoing the motion of Wuhan lake city. The podium includes a multi-dimensional garden, metro sunken plaza, individual flagship blocks and themed plaza. A vibrant shopping experience is created through diverse retail nodes and a multi-dimensional wandering pavement.
