Text description provided by the architects. Completed in 2022, Aedas-designed Chongqing Gaoke Office Project utilizes a simple elegant form. It is derived from the northern light, which creates the twisting shape of the 180m tall tower to form expressive double-curved surfaces on the building façades. Vertical lines accentuate the minimalistic form and through the effect of reflection and refraction from the glass create a design statement that celebrates light as the major tool to define architecture. Stands north of Xingfu Plaza, the project is located in the Jiangbei District of Chongqing. The surrounding environment has already been developed in a spacious plot, and one big challenge for the designer is to interpret the planning concept of “solar”, into an iconic landmark well-integrated into the existing community context.
