The inspiration behind City Crossing came from the concept of trinity, which involves the integration of architecture, interior design, and landscape. The design is centered around the concept of "float," making the building appear as if it's floating. This unique design approach not only elevates the building's aesthetic appeal but also enables it to stand out, attracting potential customers.
What sets City Crossing apart from other designs is its ability to enhance the natural environment while making the building stand out. The building appears sculptural, thanks to the careful consideration given to the types, selection, and detailing of steel structures. The building is elevated above the ground using a light and exquisite steel structure, making it appear as if it's floating.
The construction of City Crossing was a challenge due to the low-lying nature of the land. However, by using a light and exquisite steel structure as a supporter, the building was elevated above the ground, realizing the floating concept. The building is lifted by 5 meters, allowing people inside the building to enjoy the beautiful view of the forest park across the road.
City Crossing is a large community project that was designed to elevate the beautiful natural environment of the community and attract customers. The design was realized by practicing the concept of trinity of architecture, interior design, and landscape, with "float" as the core concept. This approach resulted in a coherent spatial design that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing.
In recognition of its unique design and innovative approach, City Crossing was awarded the Golden A' Architecture, Building and Structure Design Award in 2015. This prestigious award is granted to marvelous, outstanding, and trendsetting creations that reflect the designer's prodigy and wisdom. They are venerated products and bright ideas that advance art, science, design, and technology, embodying extraordinary excellence and significantly impacting the world with their desirable characteristics.
