麓湖生态城W2南区商业建筑设计
上海
An aerial precedent for large-scale circular commercial design, featuring stepped green terraces that cascade into an active open-air public courtyard.
- What we like about this project
- Fine mist elements rising along the tiered landscape edges soften the boundaries between architecture and nature.

- Geometry
- Concentric circular massing framing a large, stepped central courtyard and landscaped public plaza.
- Facade system
- Curtained glass facade shielded by an expressive louvered roof overhang and stepped planter edges.
- Structural guess
- Steel truss roof system with reinforced concrete frame and cantilevered terrace slabs.
- Spatial scale
- Large-scale commercial precinct; multi-story ring building framing a human-scaled plaza.
- Lighting
- Bright, even daylight casting soft shadows across the multi-tiered terraces and central square.
- Atmosphere
- Vibrant and airy, blending dense commercial activity with lush, stepped vegetation.
- Environmental context
- Urban commercial and mixed-use setting with integrated green roofs and central open-air public realm.
- Spatial experience
- The high vantage point reveals an expansive multi-level public bowl where perimeter walkways cascade into an active ground-level plaza.
- Composition rhythm
- Radial symmetry with concentric roof louvers and cascading stepped balconies providing layered depth.
