The architectural concept design by Studio Marco Piva had to inevitably deal with complicate environment conditions, while considering the fact that it was needed to face urgently strategies to reduce energy consumption. Based on this context, the architectural development proposes to introduce new technologies in the field of glass and facade systems, thus solving the biggest task of the facade design.

The project is located in a big city named Harbin, the capital of Heilongjang, in the north-east of China. In this city live more than 9 millions inhabitants and the weather is really harsh. The temperatures, in fact, reach below -40°C in winter season and the average up to 23°C in summer time.
