SOHO Gubei is a prime example of blending an artistic and sculptural vision with the practicalities required to achieve successful architecture. The project’s distinctive zig-zag form strikes a dynamic silhouette that extends the character of the new Hongqiao Central Park and creates a signature landmark for Shanghai’s CBD. The landscape design takes advantage of its proximity to the park, bringing the experience of resting and strolling in a lush natural environment into the project. At the ground level, sunken gardens provide usable, public garden space.
