The project is located in an entirely low-density area near SHTU. On condition that a successful urban design provides enough containers for the uncertainty of city activities of which the key lies in density, we ensure that an incomparable concentration center is predestinated on the low-rise background. The inspiration comes from the Fibonacci spiral, a combination of order and elegance to the natural beauty of life as the intelligent medicine to the realm of life science. The spiral starts from the South Waterfront Headquarter Building at the center point, extends through rigid grids of the site, breaks the tedious commonplace, connects flourishing boulevards and embraces abundant public activities.

Among them the most appealing is the ‘Dynamic island’ in the center. Circular podium Sequences, with its special fluidity and consistent logics extending to the tower, makes the vitality core formally and functionally. The construction of Dynamic Island and Ripple Island will start at the end of Year 2018.

Concentrated formation make sure within 300 meters people can reach the Dynamic Island where restaurants, shopping malls, cafeterias, shalloon, party, fitness rooms and other functions spread over. Highly efficient organization avoids redundancy or waste of resources.
