MixC Dongguan Songshan Lake District Mixed Use Development, Dongguan, China

  • Architecture Categories – Conceptual (Honorable Mention)

Designed by Ferdinand Cheung’s team, this mixed-use project is conceived as a catalyst of urban transformation from sub-urban industrial landscape to a robust lifestyle and cultural hub. It seeks to serve the community with high-quality apartments, ample and energising public spaces, as well as convenient commercial facilities.  

Zijing Paradise Walk, Hangzhou, China

  • Architecture Categories – Retails, Shops, Department Stores, Mall (Honorable Mention)

Also designed by Ferdinand Cheung’s team, this shopping mall takes inspiration from the local Hui-style architecture with a culture and wellness theme and features a diverse mix of retail and community amenities housed in interlocking spaces. The shifting and cantilevering of forms not only offer a series of hanging gardens, but also generous sheltered space along pedestrian sidewalks.  

Aoti Vanke Centre, Hangzhou, China

  • Architecture Categories – Commercial Building (Honorable Mention)

This innovative working hub challenges conventional workspaces by externalising human activities to a fluid and highly permeable field of semi-outdoor space. Ferdinand Cheung’s team designed this project around a central courtyard and reinterprets the podium-tower typology by rotating each level of its elevated podium to a different degree to create myriad walk spaces for people’s enjoyment.  

The Riviera Sales Gallery, Shantou, China

  • Architecture Categories – Museum, Exhibits, Pavilions and Exhibitions (Honorable Mention)

This sales gallery impresses visitors with a bespoke façade design inspired by the elegant form of traditional Chinese folding fans, giving rise to a picturesque envelope. The building mass is strategically subtracted to open up a wide, progressive archway for a slanted roof that descends from height towards the water.
