上海 / 深圳 / 广州
An aerial precedent for high-density transit-oriented development (TOD) by Ronald Lu & Partners, showcasing seamless integration between rail infrastructure, commercial podiums, tiered green roofs, and high-rise residential towers.
- What we like about this project
- Extensive landscaped pedestrian green decks bridging directly over active railway corridors.

- Geometry
- A high-density master plan integrates multiple high-rise towers with a sprawling multi-level transit podium, terraced green roofs, and connected pedestrian overpasses spanning rail corridors.
- Facade system
- Glass curtain walls on towers combined with complex glazed atrium roofs and stepped terraced podium envelopes.
- Structural guess
- Steel and concrete composite frames for towers; large-span steel trusses for transit station and atrium roofs.
- Spatial scale
- Mega-scale urban master plan encompassing transit stations, multi-story podiums, and clustered high-rise towers.
- Lighting
- Twilight/dusk rendering with internal tower illumination and glowing podium atriums against a soft blue evening sky.
- Atmosphere
- Vibrant and glowing evening atmosphere highlighting active mixed-use nodes and integrated transit infrastructure.
- Environmental context
- Expansive suburban and transit infrastructure context with major rail lines cutting diagonally through the surrounding urban fabric.
- Spatial experience
- The composition reads as a multi-layered urban node, linking transit infrastructure directly to elevated public plazas, retail centers, and residential enclaves.
- Composition rhythm
- Clustered tower heights stepping down toward an expansive connective retail and transit podium.
