Architizer Editors Architizer Editors

These Towers in the Jinghu District redefine spatial integration by utilizing an external structural system. Diminishing the need for numerous internal columns, they offer expansive office spaces adaptable to the evolving digital challenges in the banking business.

The architectural design fluidly merges interior and exterior, with the façade’s linen-patterned stainless steel plate cladding and extensive use of glass harmonizing with the ever-changing ambient light.

A key structural highlight is the striking 27-metre-wide glazed canopy with an impressive 15-metre cantilever, ushering visitors into a majestic 70m-high atrium. Merging this cutting-edge glass and steel construction ensures a union of aesthetic allure and unparalleled structural resilience.
