The formal design is inspired by the extraction and polishing of crystals. Elements extracted from raw and clear crystals shape the outline of the architecture. Sculpting the facade through the modular subdivision approach, the project creates a transparent, glazing and brilliant single building which lights up the city. During the design of the building exteriors, the design team continuously refined the way and proportion for the modular subdivision of curtain walls, and finally realized a delicate and beautiful architectural skin whether from the perspective of urban scale or human scale.
