Shanghai Sales Pavilion

This is a 1,400 sqm. (15,000 sf.) sales pavilion and showroom for a new mixed-use development in Shanghai. This will become a retail building once the entire development is completed. (construction of the pavilion completed fall 2014). Work performed while with Perkins Eastman Architects.

This pavilion is the face of the "New Park" development in Shanghai. The client desired for the development to be reminiscent of New York City, and following that direction, our team developed a concept for this pavilion that projects the imagery of New York to the outside. 

My responsibilities included concept design and iteration, and development and documentation of the design through design development, when it was handed over to the local architect of record.

The form is 4 stacked boxes that slightly shift and morph, each clad with custom perforated metal panels. The building has 5 sides: four unique elevations plus an introspective roof terrace. The pavilion will become a part of a larger L-shaped retail building with outdoor retail alleys serving as circulation. 

This pavilion is a part of a larger retail street within this multi-block development. Our team was responsible for master planning and developing this larger retail environment through SD.

My responsibilities in this scope of the project included massing and facade studies for one of the two primary retail buildings.
