Specification

Glazed Perimeter Blocks Framing Campus Courtyards

Multi-story perimeter wings clad in unitized glass curtain walls surround open green courtyards, establishing a clear spatial dialogue between structured office volumes and landscaped pedestrian realms. Continuous horizontal spandrel bands and glass bridges give the campus massing a steady linear rhythm, while low-rise curved pavilions introduce a distinct human-scaled anchor within the central lawn.

杭州

An exterior office campus precedent showcasing faceted curtain wall modules and large elevated blocks supported by angular pilotis, creating a dynamic urban public realm.

What we like about this project
The entire multi-story office blocks float above open-air landscaped bridge decks supported by stout, angled Y-shaped columns.

Geometry
Multiple multi-story blocks featuring faceted, angled glass curtain walls set atop wide structural pilotis and connected by undulating landscaped podium roofs.
Facade system
Faceted unitized glass curtain wall with alternating clear vision glass and opaque angled panels.
Structural guess
Steel or concrete composite frames with transfer trusses supporting elevated multi-story masses over pilotis.
Spatial scale
Large-scale corporate campus buildings, roughly seven to eight stories tall elevated over multi-story landscaped podiums.
Lighting
Bright, even daylight reflecting off polished metal sculpture and angled facade panels, creating strong contrast between opaque panels and vision glass.
Atmosphere
Clean, futuristic, and monumental with a sense of fluid movement through the central plaza.
Environmental context
Corporate campus plaza with surrounding office blocks, roadways, and structured landscaping.
Spatial experience
Approaching through a central plaza framed by elevated volumes and a central polished metal whale sculpture, offering framed urban vistas.
Composition rhythm
Repeating folded geometric curtain wall panels establish a dense, rhythmic vertical and diagonal pattern across the upper volumes.
