Nestled in the heart of a bustling metropolis, this residential property planning project stands tall with 15 floors above ground and 3 floors underground. The location boasts a perfect blend of amenities including educational institutions, commercial establishments, transportation hubs, entertainment centers, and financial facilities, making it an ideal place to live. The complex has been thoughtfully designed with the comfort and convenience of residents, neighbors, and the environment in mind. The design caters to various needs such as spacious riding floors, separate pedestrian and vehicular lanes, eco-friendly green spaces, top-notch safety measures, disaster prevention planning, and intelligent building solutions. All these features come together to create a luxurious, comfortable, and high-quality living environment that has immense potential for future development.

Taking into account the rainy climate and strong sunshine, the team installed a veranda specifically designed to provide shelter from both the sun and rain for pedestrians. Furthermore, to ensure the safety of the residents, the team implemented a design that separates pedestrian and vehicle lanes. The driveway entrance and exit were also moved back by 4.6 meters to create a buffer space and provide better visibility for vehicles entering and exiting the building. Additionally, the driveway entrance is equipped with a waterproof gate that effectively resists flooding and prevents residents from suffering losses to their lives and properties. Moreover, a rooftop garden on the top floor of the building serves to mitigate the urban heat island effect, regulate microclimate, and increase water retention and energy conservation, thus providing environmental benefits.

The project's appearance extends the building's proportions with vertical columns. The columns and beams add visual richness to the building's appearance. The body of the building is covered with beige-gray tiled bricks, creating a stable image. The curved corners of the building soften the relationship between the building and the neighboring buildings. Moreover, the black and white grille design on the outside of the air-conditioning unit on the front and back façade enhances the sense of visual rhythm and shields the unit from direct sunlight.
