Landmark Towers Suzhou

As an architectural design, the city is also building of space. Our proposal is based on the creation of spaces.
An unexpected new space, which enhances the life experience of man. A new space as essential point in the growth of a new city.

The emotional perception is stimulated by the "Presence" of sculptural objects. Man versus two unique monumental pieces.
Furthermore we try to emphasize the main characters of Suzhou: the water, the garden, the window, textures, colours, and the smell of flowers, which we can discover in a glance at this obvious "gateway" to this place.
We think about China's future, giving this city its modern character, trying to place it in the Contemporary Architectural World.

Our proposal is based on the design of two singular objects, a hotel and an office and commercial building. These two large sculptures take life with activity, and wear a special dress with a recognizable texture, a technology mesh, which covers the objects and gives them both modernity and memory of the place.
We hope giving this city its own character, its modern feature, designing objects that could place this city in the Contemporary World Architecture map.

The texture covering the buildings is different in the hotel, in the shopping and in the office building. But both have the same property.... "They unravel as they make up". In the bottom of the towers, the texture is more compact and closed and looking at the top of the building becomes lighter until even disappearing.
