Silver 2025

Gaofuli

by Schematic Design of Super High-rise Buil for Shanghai Gaofu Real Estate Development Co., Ltd.

Gaofu’s urban renewal project in Shanghai harmonizes historical preservation with modern design, nestled near cultural heritage areas and Yanzhong Greenland. The 150m supertall structure and mixed-use development integrate Shikumen-style elements (rounded corners, chamfered edges, and arched motifs) evoking classic Shanghai architecture while embracing sustainable urbanism. The layout prioritizes natural light and views: south/east facades maximize solar exposure and park vistas, while a north-elevated ground floor ensures safe access and streetfront cohesion.
