of the world’s leading architecture and design practices, specialising in design solutions tailored to the needs of cities and communities around the globe. The company has been phenomenally successful by achieving an impressive 14 awards. Pulsa is a residential development of eight individual houses in the region’s most spectacular Repulse Bay on Hong Kong Island. Hence, symbolically, the design is based on ribbon which is analogous to the movement of a wave. Practically, the ribbons respond to the spatial requirement of different functions inside the buildings and create an architecture with a changing profile for different perspectives. By the diffraction and reflection of the curves, residents are always surrounded by the adjoining natural beauty. Hefei Galaxy Park is an experience-oriented retail centre in China with a design that embraces a metaphor of the cultural backdrop of Anhui Province. The Yellow Mountain is the province’s most popular tourist destination due
to its picturesque scenery of sunsets, rocks, hot springs and views of clouds below. Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the mountain and its terrain have been translated by Aedas into the shopping centre’s two dynamic outlines and layered volumes. Vertical greenery cascades down from roof gardens to outdoor terraces creating an attractive urban oasis. Tianshan Gate of the World in China is a large scale, mixed-use project in Shijiazhuang’s new development zone. Plot 27, Phase II features a 450-metre high International Finance Centre with Grade A offices, serviced apartments, a five-star hotel, restaurants, a sky club with infinity pool and an observatory spiral flying deck at the summit. The art of Yan-Zhao, which is the beauty of the curved form of Chinese zither, has been integrated within the tower’s design. By expressing the spiritual elements of flowing, dancing sleeves and instruments’ strings, a rhythmic beauty is formed. Taichung Commercial Bank Headquarters, Taiwan is a 210-metre high tower. It combines
