Beijing is an international metropolis which changes with each passing day. In recent decades, a number of modern buildings have been built during the fast urbanization. However, the overall planning was not so exquisite that many traditional buildings were destroyed, resulting in the damages to urban fabric. This project design attempts to reposition and interpret the high-rise office buildings in Beijing. The aim is to explore new design logic and formal regularities in conformity with all conditions, so as to combine building structure and forms perfectly, and to respond the complicated geographical conditions through the most concise solutions.
The project is located at Dajiaoting Bridge, East 4th Ring, Chaoyang District, Beijing. The base is roughly shaped like an irregular triangle, and the urban MRT track runs through the southeast side of the base. Through the parameterized design and computation, the remarks on the architectural form are exhausted under the limited conditions of red-line scope, limited height of building, plot ratio, building density, and so forth. The eligible form with optimal solution is screened through comparison and analysis.
In combination with the complicated shape, plot ratio and requirement for limited height of 100m, and in consideration of the daylighting of office building, it is determined that the building is finally designed into a triangle double-tower building with filleted corner, which not only meets the needs of office functions but also favors for the future property management.
