Located at the Shanghai University Science Park of Sitong Nami Harbour, a significant ‘waterfront’ building, the building is intended to be a strong symbol of international technological development in China. Nami’s high technology reflects the rapid growth in the Chinese economy and is the guideline for the design concept that is based on the Chinese meaning of ‘comprehensive’.

The entrance and introduction to the building is defined by a series of corridor columns and creates an interesting architectural statement on the building facade. The Nami entrance is elevated to heighten the building significance.

A 6-storey circular space forms the atrium in a shell-like shape that defines the commercial exhibition centre. The expansive atrium is symmetrical in layout design and is the architectural vocabulary for exhibiting the comprehensive and progressive spirit of Nami technology. The large scale of the multi-functional complex, in the shape of a shimmering shell is at the centre of the building. A circular office building surrounds the atrium.

State–of-the-art material, advanced structural design, and attention to unique detailing mirror the characteristics of the high technology industry. The landscape greenery and exterior leisure space offer a soft and subtle contrast to the building’s ‘edge’ qualities.
