China's rapid economic development, urbanization, and evolving consumer preferences have fueled a shopping mall boom PMA has the opportunity to be part of this movement through this project. As an important part of Keqiao district, the gathering place of Shaoxing's printing and dyeing industry, and the adjacent land of Lanyin Town, a key industrial tourism project, the vision of this project is to create a unique destination that has harmonious integration with its nature. #cityplanning #urbanplanning #placemakingarchitect #urbandesign #architecturedesign #landscapedesign #interiordesign #architecture #archdaily #archinesia #gooddesign #architectureproject #urbanarchitecture #placemaking #urbanplanning #design #archilovers #buildupstrategy #SkylineStrategy #GreenArchitecture #Collaboration #SustainableBuilding #PlanningFramework #AgeFriendlyCity #ProjectOpportunities&Challenges

Imagine an abandoned highway brought to life as a thriving green sanctuary in the heart of Shanghai. 💗 Today, we want to spotlight the innovative Shanghai Lowline Park—a project turning an unused industrial underbelly into a vibrant hub of nature and culture. This groundbreaking endeavour from Fish Design isn't just a park; it's a renaissance of urban space. Here's what sets the Shanghai Lowline Park apart: 📍 Location Innovation: Nestled along a deserted sunken highway, the park gives a second life to forgotten urban landscapes, enriching Shanghai's environment. 📐 Immersive Design: Beyond adding greenery, the park’s immersive design honours its industrial past while infusing nature into every corner, crafting interactive experiences. 🌳 Nature's Return: With an extensive array of flora and fauna, the Lowline not only offers a burst of fresh air but a haven for wildlife amidst the city sprawl. 🫶 Cultural Fusion: The park embodies Shanghai's spirit with artistic touchpoints and historical narratives that unpack the city's rich tapestry for all visitors. ♻️ Sustainability at Core: By integrating green technology, such as rainwater collections and solar lighting, the Lowline sets benchmarks for eco-conscious urban design. 🫂 Community First: Shaped by public insight, the park reflects the community's heartbeat, driven by collaborative workshops and inclusive planning. The Shanghai Lowline Park exemplifies how dormant urban spaces can be astoundingly reborn, fostering green, cultural, and communal vitality.

THE FOURTH INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION (4IR), ISSUES TO AVOID WHEN DESIGNING A SKYSCRAPER TO BE COMPETITIVE AND EFFICIENT IN THE 21st CENTURY. The Shanghai Tower faces challenges in leasing due to several factors including its unique design, high construction costs, and the competitive local real estate market. Its immense size and height may also pose logistical challenges for potential tenants, and the economic environment can affect demand for premium office space. Here are 30 issues to avoid when designing such a project: While the Shanghai Tower is an iconic structure, there are various reasons why a company might choose not to lease space in it: 1. High leasing costs due to its prestigious status. 2. Limited flexibility in floor layout due to its unique design. 3. Logistical challenges associated with the building’s immense height. 4. Potential elevator congestion during peak hours. 5. Concerns about air quality at higher floors. 6. Uncertainty about the long-term economic viability of the area. 7. Competition with other premium office buildings in Shanghai. 8. Limited availability of parking space. 9. Challenges in customizing office space to fit specific needs. 10. Potential disruption from ongoing construction or maintenance. 11. Limited access to amenities or services compared to other buildings. 12. Higher operating costs due to the building’s advanced technology and design. 13. Concerns about seismic activity or other natural disasters. 14. Potential security concerns given its high profile. 15. Limited availability of nearby public transportation options. 16. Potential limitations on signage or branding opportunities. 17. Challenges in attracting and retaining talent due to location or building features. 18. Concerns about the stability of the building’s ownership or management. 19. Limited availability of nearby dining or retail options. 20. Potential language barriers for international tenants. 21. Limited outdoor space or recreational facilities. 22. Potential challenges in obtaining permits or approvals for renovations. 23. Uncertainty about the future development plans for the surrounding area. 24. Concerns about the building’s environmental sustainability. 25. Limited availability of nearby green spaces or outdoor areas. 26. Potential difficulty in accommodating large-scale events or meetings. 27. Concerns about the building’s energy efficiency and operating costs. 28. Limited availability of natural light in some areas of the building. 29. Potential challenges in maintaining privacy or confidentiality. 30.

We are very pleased to confirm that One Works has been appointed by Westfield Milan to develop the first Retail phase of the Westfield area in Segrate (MI) - an exciting development that is soon to become one of Milan’s most innovative urban regeneration projects in recent history.    Since 2022, Westfield Milan, a joint venture between Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield and Stilo Immobiliare Finanziaria (Percassi Group, through Arcus Real Estate), has worked on updating its project to perfectly adapt to the new socio-economic scenarios brought about by the pandemic. This includes radical evolutions in the retail, entertainment, edutainment, and overall lifestyle realms, along with the upcoming changes in the area due to the development of the Porta Est intermodal hub.    Following an extensive months-long consultation process, the selection of One Works heralds the beginning of an ambitious and visionary project – the first of its kind in Italy. This project is poised to serve the citizens of the metropolitan city of Milan, with a particular focus on the community of Segrate.   Leonardo Cavalli, Managing Partner of One Works, emphasizes “the shape of the city should revolve around the centrality of open spaces, reimagining buildings as flexible tools that define their quality.

Redevco not only shows how historic buildings can be transformed into innovative multi-functional destinations, but, in the case of Boulevard Haussmann also how space can be showcased even during a redevelopment. “Our ambition is to transform each asset into an iconic place, custom-designed and tailor made, integrated perfectly into its urban environment,” says thierry cahierre “We have a big constraint in the redevelopment due to the urbanistic laws, we cannot reduce or create any retail square meters,” says Cécile Pouzadoux. “It would have been easier to equip the second floor with offices, as attracting consumers to the second floor is difficult. But this constraint motivates us to find creative solutions.” “Even though we are only redeveloping the retail part, we have to think about the entire building, which is already a mixed-use building,” adds Vanessa MEDIONI “This is one of the biggest learnings of our projects Promenade Sainte-Catherine in Bordeaux and Le 31 Lille.” To make use of the full potential of the building, REDEVCO France introduced the concept “Stories, by Redevco ! ✨” in the Boulevard Haussmann asset. The idea is to turn physical spaces into #marketing channels. “Our partners and tenants are willing to reinvent themselves, and we are happy to provide places where they can do so,” says Vanessa MEDIONI. “The idea is to use the asset as #media”.
