PROJECT: Anhui Sightseeing Tower

Hefei China 2013

We look at the sightseeing tower with special attention to its relevant image in the surroundings and its landmark character. In order to give it a strong identity and also to make it integrated in the Anhui style we developed a pattern based on an image from Huangshan Mountain which is one of the symbols of Anhui province. This pattern gives the tower a light character and creates an interesting effect on it. The shape of the tower itself is a result of several studies of its position on site, the views that it will provide and a form which is always different from different perspectives, turning it into a unique landmark.
