About RIBA China Landmarks 100

 

China Landmark 100 aims to showcase a comprehensive RIBA atlas of Chinese urban landmarks and explore architects’ avant-garde ideas and practical insights. It advocates for excellence in architectural design based on urban context in the global construction industry, and simultaneously builds a future-oriented contemporary urban image.

 

 

Unlike conventional commercial high-density mixed-use developments, this project optimizes public open space. Shimao Riverfront Wisdom Towers is envisioned as a significant urban gateway, standing quietly on the banks of the Qiantang River with a restrained elegance and open posture, responding to local cultural characteristics of the city.
