The New Hope D10 project located at the riverside of the Yangtze River in Wuhan. Interpreting with contemporary architectural language, the design draws inspiration from the ancient guqin tune “High Mountains and Flowing Water”, which is about friendship through music and art in Chinese culture.The tower facade mimics the shape of a guqin. The varied, irregular architectural form diminishes horizontal wind load, achieving perfect unity of function and form. The streamlined podium echoes and blends with the tower facade.The project allegorically represents Wuhan as a vivacious cultural capital.
