An aerial precedent for large-scale industrial heritage adaptive reuse, illustrating the integration of historic silos and cylindrical forms within a high-density urban masterplan.
- What we like about this project
- Retained vertical cement silos stand directly integrated into the footprint of the contemporary masterplan.

- Geometry
- An extensive industrial complex layout integrating clustered vertical silos, low cylindrical structures, and mid- to high-rise rectilinear towers arranged along a waterfront edge.
- Facade system
- Curtain wall glazing on new towers juxtaposed against solid concrete and industrial masonry of existing silos.
- Structural guess
- Heavy industrial concrete silos and structural steel frames for new high-rise office towers.
- Spatial scale
- Macro urban scale, showing entire block layouts, multi-story towers, and expansive industrial footprints.
- Lighting
- Bright, direct daylight casting sharp shadows across roofs, flat ground planes, and water.
- Atmosphere
- Expansive, industrial, and transitional as new development meshes with heavy heritage structures.
- Environmental context
- A waterfront industrial site undergoing large-scale urban regeneration, bounded by roads and river infrastructure.
- Spatial experience
- The composition reads as a dense urban campus balancing preserved industrial artifacts with new high-density office and commercial blocks.
- Composition rhythm
- A dense grid of tall rectilinear forms contrasted against organic clusters of vertical silos and circular volumes.
