Description on this project

The building is located on the western side of Xiamen Island in the Siming District. For the majority of its height, the building is curved outward on its northwest and southeast elevations. As it reaches its pinnacle, an aperture disrupts the outwardly curved façade, which then curves inward along with the building’s final stories. This interplay between convex and concave forms imparts a sense of dynamism and tension. The gap in the building runs through the northwest and southeast elevations, where a traversable ledge extends beyond the exterior wall for unparalleled views of the strait and mainland China.
