Hongqiao Vantone SunnyWorld Centre

Following the future scenario of the previous assignments exemplar research on projects which aim to achieve a similar result have been examined.

“We aim to create a destination and a genuine public place that is a positive contribution to the future growth of Shanghai"
 

The concept of returning biodiversity to the heart of the city with a large-scale urban plan reflects similarly on what I hope to achieve with the Brisbane Queen Street

The SunnyWorld Centre takes into considerations the environmental factors surrounding the site.
  • The Office buildings border the linear park minimizing solar gains while maximizing views.
  • The design of the floor plates are slender, maximizing daylight and natural ventilation, while remaining flexible for future changes.



 


Smart design which adds positively while not demanding high energy consumption is vital in the proposed future scenario
