The project is located in the new northern district of Shishi. Benefiting from the integrative development of Quanzhou Bay Rim, the project site occupies the gateway location to Shishi City radiating the surrounding regions including Quanzhou and Jinjiang. It covers a total land area of 98,086 square meters with overall floor area of 424,127 square meters. In an aim to create regional iconic images, the project has adopted the concept of eco-city and highlighted the philosophy of sustainable development. On one hand, we use innovative approach to break the foursquare layout and shapes, and instead bring in the curves to create the flowing, natural, organic and flexible exterior image and internal space. On the other, we appropriately applied energy conservation techniques including vertical greening, natural ventilation, water circulation and alternative energy, etc.. The concept and exterior image has been in total accord to have created the modern and vigorous urban building clusters.
In the master planning, we divided the site into east and west sections. The east section is adjacent to the main road and is designed to be commercial and office areas, demonstrating the iconic feature of the project. The west section is close to the residential community in the west and the park in the north, and is designed to be residential area with top quality habitant environment. Between the sections are a vehicular path running through the site and a clubhouse serving both the residents in community and clients from outside, both working as the separation of two sections. The commercial street goes from south to north between the public buildings area and residential one through the entire site, together with the shopping mall at the southeast corner to have shaped a continuous and complete commercial block. The commercial type of ground-floor stores along the two sides of the street is also applied, which is in compliance with the consumption habits of Shishi citizens. The residential area in the west is placed in an embracing layout with a park in the center, taking consideration of the privacy. The ground floors of the residential building are of commercial use ensuring the mix-use functions of the plot.
