Blending traditional Chinese elements with modern materials and craftsmanship, the podium's facade features
[SACHSEN]—
The undulating honeycomb aluminum sunshade panels
resemble ripples on a boat's hull,
while the tower's honeycomb aluminum sunshade panels resemble rising sails,
through subtle variations in color and depth
creating a shimmering effect of light and shadow on the sail's surface under sunlight.
Floodlight at dusk
evokes the poetic scene of "fishing lights, a lone sail in the distance"
The tower's facade employs a dual-unit curtain wall system
with inner glass units and outer honeycomb aluminum sunshade panels
parametric unit design technology and innovative processes
allowing this "stone-built sailboat"
to rest serenely in this ancient water town
continuing the contemporary poem of Jiangnan's waterside dwellings with modern architectural language
