AI Plaza

This project is located in Xuhui District in Shanghai within the West Bund area. The project aims to be the “Art and Intelligence Hub” for the district. The design concept connects the Art district and Media district as a Borderless AI cloud, which gathers different inspirations in the surrounding area. Our team took “cloud space” as the inspiration for AI Plaza, using “cloud” to capture the convergence of art and technology.

Project details

A Natural Cloud is located on the first floor, which brings the outdoor sunlight into the indoor space with the borderless design method. The Smart Cloud is located on the 1st to 3rd floors, using virtual reality technology to expand the possibilities of real space. The Art Cloud is located on the 4th-6th floor above the Smart Cloud, sublimating the commercial space into an immersive space. The Humanities Cloud is located on floors 1-3 of another tower, adjacent to the office tower providing a healing space for building users to release stress.
