SOHO HAILUN PLAZA

The SOHO Hailun plaza is located at the intersection of two metro lines, providing excellent connections to public transport and therefore a desirable location for office and retail. The general massing of the project consists of a 33 storey high tower and a series of smaller mixed-use pavilions. Placed as objects in the flow of commuters, the buildings organise outdoor spaces of different scales and provide a platform for a variety of urban activities. The facade design emphasises the buildings as singular objects. The curved geometry of the buildings, with strong vertical lines, anchors the buildings within the city. The faceted and colored texture of the facades will provide a changing appearance when approached from different directions, adding to the dynamics of this Shanghai location.
