The project is located in Hedong District, Tianjin.
The overall planning proposes the theme of a "fashion showcase in a traditional historical block." Taking into account the need to protect the historical architectural style and the modernization process of the CBD core area, a balance is struck between the two aspects to rejuvenate the traditional historical block with new fashion vitality.
In terms of architectural image, bold innovations have been made. The overall framework is guided by neoclassical principles, using traditional architectural aesthetics as the prototype and presenting them with modern architectural materials. It continues the urban context while showcasing the modern, fashionable, and vibrant aspects of the city.
Traditional "streets" and "squares" are incorporated into the spatial design, creating multidimensional spaces with different scales and characteristics. While respecting tradition, modern lifestyles are integrated into the design.
Main materials for the building facade: The first and second floors are made of beige stone, while the third floor and above are made of simulated stone aluminum panels/light gray aluminum panels.
The facade design follows the principle of three horizontal sections and five vertical sections. The segmented facade pursues elegance, stability, grandeur, balance, and richness of layers. It is proportional, orderly, and highly representative of classical architectural aesthetics. The building texture is predominantly vertical, emphasizing the verticality of lines and a dignified appearance.
The facades of each building along Liwei Road contain and echo each other, presenting a sense of unity. There is variation in local details, with prominent areas using tower-like elements to create a distinctive skyline and add variety to the overall street facade, making it unified yet not monotonous.
The project is located in a relatively central area of Tianjin's CBD and is within a protected area of historical architectural style. The team conducted extensive research and discussions, ultimately exploring a human-centered design with a craftsmanship spirit, creating a spiritual space that continues the urban context and provides leisure and entertainment for local residents.
