Bellevue is fast becoming one of the country’s most livable cities where higher education, science, and technology are developing rapidly. To the west, it is a short 10 minute drive from Bellevue to downtown Seattle. To the east, it is another 10 mins drive from Bellevue to the forested mountains that have access to lakes, streams, and hiking trails. The concept of our design is to bring nature into urban high density vertical communities by creating recreational pedestrian streets, multicultural restaurants and shopping, natural roof gardens, and views of the city and the surrounding natural environment. The building design reflects movement and full service facilities for all ages, creating a campus of relating architectural elements. All of these have made ELEV8 Plaza become the largest urban mixed-use projects in the greater Seattle area, and the most notable development for the international community.

Lotus and Crane Square pot is an artifact from the Chun-Qiu era. National treasure of Henan province. Its square shape and upper arc represents the expressions of the “heaven is round and the earth is square”and“Outter square and inner circle”, an important Chinese philosophy.

As the core building of the main Zhengzhou area, we try to express a sense of combination of traditional culture and unique architectural form. The whole building is naturally converted from the rounded solid bottom into the Founder Lotus bloom top. Located on the main axis of the city park, the main façade is equipped with “Ssangyong”, which is set up for the modern technology “flying crane”. The top of the cornice is made of modern tiles and is expressed in the form of traditional auspicious ornaments. Whether it is day or night, to show its fine cultural connotation and auspicious blessing of the land of Zhengzhou. The extraordinary height of the main tower and its rounded atmosphere of the shape, together with the north and south of the two symmetrical towers, more of the main tower of the king style, and constitute a “lucky Sambo”, become unique to the new landmark in Zhengzhou.

Two towers are conceived by the Western Zhou Dynasty copper square Gu inspiration, Squared top and bottom are naturally extend, not only coordinate with the main tower, but also have there own personality.

As the most important building in the eastern end of the core area of the central park, our planning hopes to maximize the importance and continuity of this main axis. The 369-meter-high tower is located on the main axis, the other two 240-meter-high vice tower is basically symmetrical on both sides of the spindle, which forms “Three Treasure”. The main tower connects with the park through the large platform and grand steps, so that it expands the image and use value of the main park.

The Overall Landscape Conception is Inspired

by Li Bai‘s Poem “The Water of the Yellow River”. Landscape, ramps, water features and building combined together, the upper and lower space blend with each other.

CRL Nantong MixC

Nantong is a city that is famous for the rivers and famous people of China. Reflecting the natural long protruding terrain, design is inspired by the interlaced linear flow of rivers and features of the beautiful valley cliffs. Landscape, plazas, and buildings are organized and blended with the streamline of shopping; building facade materials and textures show the natural conception of the stacked transformation of valleys and palisades that were created by the river flow and erosion through thousands of years.

The 270,000 square meters mixed-use development includes an upscale shopping center, an open experiential commercial street, and two towers.

Awards: 2014 Commercial Buildings Award Winner, the World Architecture News Awards (WAN) (United Kingdom)

Suning Beijing Plaza

Located on Chaoyang Avenue, the project includes office, business, entertainment and a Suning Electronics Store. The design had to address how to create housing on the north side of the site that met the local requirements for natural sun light. On the narrow and small site, a public plaza space combined with main retail entry is created by making a portion of the first floor cantilever overhead in order to meet different evacuation requirements of the building. The flowing space and form produce a positive energy and a lively atmosphere.
