The project enjoys prime location with excellent views towards the Northern Bund and Huangpu River, surrounded by low-rise residential blocks and a number of historic buildings. The new complex creates a synergy for the commercial hub and connects the old and new of Shanghai city.
Inspired by the traditional Chinese windows on the nearby old buildings, the facade design interprets the oriental element in a contemporary language and creates an impressive motif, setting the tone and identity of the development. With the cleanlined, rectangular form, the twin tower creates a landmark enjoying the signature Shanghai skyline along the Suzhou Creek.
