The Twin Embrace Tower

The Twin Embrace Towers

00group como Arquitetos

Located near Changshan Port, the "Nankong Holy Land • Quzhou Youli" project is a striking architectural masterpiece featuring twin towers that rise 100 meters into the sky. The towers, intertwined in a spiraling design, symbolize the ancient Chinese gesture of salutation, perfectly capturing the essence of Confucius’s "Xingjiao Tu" (Teaching Journey). This project is deeply rooted in Quzhou’s rich Nankong culture, skillfully blending the city’s most distinctive and representative cultural elements into its design.

The multifunctional complex combines headquarters offices, conference and exhibition centers, and commercial retail spaces. The design strategically places the commercial and conference functions in an accessible podium, while the headquarters offices are housed within the dynamic twin towers. The towers' interwoven curves evoke the image of ancient salutation, while the tiered podium structure draws inspiration from the surrounding mountains, establishing a harmonious connection with Changshan Port.

The project emphasizes a seamless relationship between architecture and nature. The towers feature traditional glass curtain walls on their front façades, while the sides incorporate trees and plants as integral elements of the exterior design. This approach transforms each level into a sky garden, bringing nature directly into the workspace. The podium’s green corridors play a significant role in connecting public spaces, inspired by natural mountain landscapes. The tiered design, combined with the integration of greenery, ensures that the architecture not only serves its occupants but also offers continuous, inviting public spaces for the community.
