1. Founder International Financial Center, Wuhan, China (designed by Executive Director Leo Liu and Chairman and Global Design Principal Keith Griffiths) – Best International Commercial High-rise Architecture. Founder International Financial Center features a 238-metre and a 150-metre towers with a three-level retail podium. Its design was inspired by the totem of dragons – the double curve lines rising upwards through the towers symbolise two rising dragons.
2. Kuntai Wangjing Plot 2 Exhibition Centre, Beijing, China (designed by Executive Director Pierre Tong) – Best International Leisure Architecture. Kuntai Wangjing Plot 2 Exhibition Centre is a sculptural landmark with ‘flying curves’. The flexible design allows it to be transformed from a sales office and exhibition centre to a community clubhouse with restaurants, exhibition and communal spaces in the future.
3. Sunshine 100 Wenzhou Centre, Wenzhou, China (designed by Global Design Principals Christine Lam and David Clayton) – Best Retail Architecture Asia Pacific. Sunshine 100 Wenzhou Centre includes a retail village with a design that takes full advantage of the waterfront location and combines cultural programmes. Water elements are brought into the core of the retail and connects the whole development. A central sunken courtyard is the core public event space connecting the north-south axis to the river-side promenade. Source and images Courtesy of Aedas.
