Production Technology
The building features a 26-meter cantilever supported by two tilted, mirror-finish stainless steel columns, creating a surreal spatial effect. The facade, made of 28,000 red terracotta panels, evokes a minimalist campus-style aesthetic with green trees and red walls. The upper portion showcases glazed ultra-white glass curtain walls, forming a distinct two-level architectural design.
Design Challenge
The design’s challenge lies in the 26 meter cantilever, supported by two inclined giant columns wrapped in mirror finish stainless steel. These columns extend from the ground to the ceiling, creating a seamless, suspended effect. Balancing structural integrity with the delicate reflective surfaces required close coordination between engineering and design, ensuring both stability and visual impact. Achieving strength, elegance, and a surreal spatial experience was essential to the project’s success.
Project Duration
The design phase of the architectural project began in 2021, with construction completed in 2024. Location: 1065 Chuanqiao Road, Shanghai, China
Operation Flow
Through the collaboration between Shanghai Pharma Holdings and Jinqiao Group, an old warehouse has been transformed into a landmark innovation hub in the Jinqiao Sub-center. Magsense Health has settled in the project, with biopharmaceutical companies like Huashi Pharmacy and Huantong Technology joining soon. This initiative is fostering a synergistic biopharmaceutical ecosystem, positioning the area as a key industry hub and a Shanghai benchmark for urban renewal driving new productivity.
Research
The Golden Key Venue, located at 1065 Chuanqiao Road in Pudong's Jinqiao area, was formerly the Huashi Storage Warehouse under Shanghai Pharma Group. The five-story, 2,700 sqm building was in disrepair and had low land-use efficiency, affecting the surrounding industrial community. As part of Jinqiao Sub-center's broader transformation, Shanghai Pharma Holdings and Jinqiao Group, two state-owned enterprises, have spearheaded this urban renewal project.
Inspiration
Urban structures possess an inherent logic that requires rationality and knowledge to shape, forming a driving force for urban behavior - an Urban Catalyst. Its purpose is to influence other elements, attracting talent to collectively create a vibrant, cohesive city, driven by empowered industries, urban construction, productivity integration, vitality creation, and regeneration.
