The Urban Jigsaw

Here in the heart of Changsha, we have created an Urban Jigsaw, a series of interlocking like those of an interlocking burr puzzle that blurs the boundaries between city life, and the urban retreat creating a connection between Sky-Bound and Earth-Bound living.

Sky Bound

As you journey up into your apartment, you will start to experience a peaceful, luxurious exclusivity side of urban living. A contrast from the vibrant city life on the outside, it’s an escape from the busy urban life into a place that offers respite for your soul, where you can truly be who you are.

Earth Bound

The Blending of Pubic Realm - Blending the public, semi public and private spaces, facing the main road the restaurants, bars and cafes that integrates nature and culture in a seamless indoor/outdoor space that begins to calm the individuals from the Hussle and Bustle of city life.

The Urban Retreat - As we travel towards the building lobby, one can experience a feeling of tranquillity as you are led towards the building lobby. The space features a landscaped realm inspired by the cultural aesthetics of Changsha with sunken lawns feature a waterway and an alfresco lounge.
