MYZEIL-法兰克福-德国
上海
A striking retail architecture precedent showcasing a triangulated glass facade interrupted by a sweeping, fluid vortex that pulls exterior views and light deep into the complex.
- What we like about this project
- The massive curving glass vortex appears to scoop the sky down into the building entrance.

- Geometry
- Multi-story urban commercial block featuring a large, fluid, funnel-shaped glazed vortex that cuts through the faceted triangulated glass facade.
- Facade system
- Custom triangulated glass and steel space-frame system with a recessed curving vortex opening.
- Structural guess
- Steel space-frame truss system supporting large-span faceted glazing.
- Spatial scale
- Large multi-story commercial scale with a wide pedestrian street frontage populated by numerous people.
- Lighting
- Evening dusk with warm interior artificial illumination glowing through the glass envelope, contrasted against cool exterior twilight and falling snow.
- Atmosphere
- Vibrant and festive urban energy under twilight and snow, animated by glowing interior light.
- Environmental context
- Dense European urban pedestrian street filled with evening crowds during winter.
- Spatial experience
- From the crowded public street, the curving glazed vortex draws the eye upward into the multi-level retail atrium inside.
- Composition rhythm
- Triangulated space-frame grid creating a dense, crystalline rhythm across the facade surface.
