Changchun Eco Plaza is a mixed-use development in Jilin Province, China, with office, serviced apartments, hotel, retail, and ancillary facilities. The overall building mass straddles the northern edge of the site providing breathing space and a community park square. Permeability at the ground levels facilitates cross-connectivity between the two neighbouring greeneries. The façade limits the amount of glass and maximizes solid insulated surfaces with vertical stone fins and shadow box panels. Facades are articulated with vertical expression to exaggerate its 120m maximum allowable height. Corners are kept solid to prevent mass and erosion.
