Located along Century Avenue, it faces the Shanghai Science and Technology Museum to the south and the Yuanshen Sports Center Stadium to the north, anchoring itself within the city\u2019s prominent cultural axis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Designed as both a workplace and a civic destination, the building lifts its corners to create open plazas that encourage gathering, exchange and interaction between occupants and the broader community. These active ground-level spaces provide a transition between the workplace and surrounding parks, further opening the building to the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>AECOM provided integrated services for the project, including architectural design, MEP, structural engineering, and landscape design, delivering a high-performance commercial office building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Architectural design with rhythm and openness<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Drawing inspiration from the elegance of a piano keyboard, the fa\u00e7ade introduces alternating light and dark perforated panels across a transparent glass curtain wall, producing a rhythmic, vertical cadence. Integrated operable windows balance ventilation, shading and visibility while preserving the fa\u00e7ade\u2019s integrity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All rooftop equipment is concentrated within a 420-square-meter area, enclosed by the same perforated aluminum panels used on the main fa\u00e7ade. This configuration preserves the building\u2019s cohesive architectural language while also creating a spacious rooftop garden for the owner, significantly enhancing the project\u2019s overall value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sustainability embedded in design and delivery<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The center was conceived as a model of green and energy-efficient design. A suite of systems, including high-performance fa\u00e7ades, a rainwater recycling system, an energy consumption monitoring system, an exhaust heat recovery system, and an indoor air monitoring system, were integrated to minimize environmental impact while ensuring healthy indoor air conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These strategies were reinforced by advanced construction methods. With 65 percent of building components prefabricated, compared with the 40 percent industry benchmark, the project demonstrated leadership in resource-efficient delivery while supporting broader sustainability goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a result, the building achieved a 65.2% energy-saving rate and was awarded both a Two-Star Green Building Design Label and LEED Gold Certification, affirming its high standards of sustainable design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More than a workplace, the center illustrates how thoughtful architecture can advance sustainability goals, enrich urban life and create spaces that connect people with their city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"aecom-custom-block block-facts\"\n    style=\"margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 40px\">\n\n            <h2>Awards:<\/h2>\n        <ul class=\"list-style-check\">\n                    <li>\n                                    2024 MUSE Design Awards, Silver Winner (Architectural Design &#8211; Office Building)                            <\/li>\n                    <li>\n                                    2022-2023 China National Quality Engineering Award                            <\/li>\n                    <li>\n                                    2022 REARD Global Design Award                            <\/li>\n                    <li>\n                                    2021 Shanghai Municipal Quality Project \u2013 Magnolia Award                            <\/li>\n            <\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/aecom.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/07-lower-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-178500\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/aecom.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/08-lower-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-178501\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"author":918,"featured_media":1838,"template":"","tags":[],"city":[18],"class_list":["post-1834","project","type-project","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","city-shanghai"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/aecom.com\/en-cn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project\/1834","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/aecom.com\/en-cn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/aecom.com\/en-cn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/project"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aecom.com\/en-cn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/918"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/aecom.com\/en-cn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project\/1834\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2004,"href":"https:\/\/aecom.com\/en-cn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project\/1834\/revisions\/2004"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aecom.com\/en-cn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1838"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/aecom.com\/en-cn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1834"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aecom.com\/en-cn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1834"},{"taxonomy":"city","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aecom.com\/en-cn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/city?post=1834"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
