Exterior perspective of a multi-story retail podium with curved corner
An exterior perspective of a mixed-use commercial development featuring a ribbed podium and digital media integration, serving as a precedent for large-scale retail architecture.
- What we like about this project
- A massive wrapped digital display transitions smoothly into the horizontal fluted facade lines of the podium corner.

- Geometry
- A low-slung multi-level retail podium featuring curved corner glazing and large integrated digital media screens, surmounted by slender high-rise residential towers.
- Facade system
- Ribbed metal panel cladding combined with large-format structural glass curtain walls and curved LED screen integration.
- Structural guess
- Steel or concrete composite frame with heavy podium transfer slabs supporting slender tower structures.
- Spatial scale
- Large-scale mixed-use development; human figures at the street level establish a multi-story podium scale.
- Lighting
- Bright, even daylight casting soft shadows, complemented by vibrant self-illuminated display screens on the podium facade.
- Atmosphere
- Vibrant, active urban atmosphere energized by digital displays and pedestrian traffic.
- Environmental context
- Urban commercial street setting with active pedestrian sidewalks and scattered street trees.
- Spatial experience
- The pedestrian approach is greeted by a transparent multi-level commercial storefront tucked beneath dynamic horizontal podium louvers and a sweeping media facade.
- Composition rhythm
- Horizontal louvers on the podium contrast against the vertical fenestration rhythm of the towers above.
