The Genzon Kexing Technology Park D4 Tower, located in Shenzhen's CBD, is a signature icon of the city. Its unique design features kaleidoscope-shaped windows that reflect the surrounding scene on every folding glass, creating a vibrant and dynamic landscape. This design approach not only enhances the building's aesthetic appeal but also encourages people to engage with the district.
PH Alpha Design Ltd's innovative use of parametric design methods has resulted in a media facade composed of just five modules, seamlessly integrating functionality, practicality, and aesthetics. The building's facade is designed to foster a culture of sustainability, aiming to achieve LEED Gold and Green building certifications. The canopy serves as a theatre experience, adding a vibrant mix to the district.
The Genzon Kexing Technology Park D4 Tower was realized using Low-E glass and parametric design methods. This project was a collaborative effort by Miss Ziping Xu, Architectural Design Director, Mr Clive Chow, Project Director, and Mr Frank Xu, Architectural Designer. The design process was marked by the successful combination of multiple textures and layers, creating a sense of the building being alive.
The tower's design was inspired by the need to reform the repressed working space engendered by high density and the lack of public open space in Shenzhen. The design team transformed the center tower into a kaleidoscope, creating a collaged drawing on the development through the reflection and juxtaposition of the surrounding scene on every folding glass.
The Genzon Kexing Technology Park D4 Tower is a testament to PH Alpha Design Ltd's commitment to innovative and sustainable design. The project's recognition with a Silver A' Design Award underscores the company's position as a leader in the field of architecture and design.
