Text description provided by the architects. How can we build a tall modern building that reflects the past? We want to get away with the idea of a glass tower. With the use of brick walls, timber and metal screens, the design signifies the idea of civic building with a piazza as a place for gathering, establishing a connection with its roots yet modern at the same time. The spatial concept is inspired by the Chinese traditional cabinet, a kind of multipurpose storage space for books, as well as open shelves to display porcelain and bonsai. By incorporating terraces that mediate the outdoor and indoor environments, the design re-interprets the traditional elements in a contemporary way.
