The Embankment Square is located along the east bank of the Huangpu River in Shanghai. The project consists of landscape areas in three office parcels and one waterfront park parcel. The view of the site is remarkable, looking toward the landmark skyscrapers of Lujiazui Financial Center, Nanpu Bridge, the Bund, and the Minsheng CBD.
The design concept centers on weaving together the riverside fabric, leveraging the unique resources of the Huangpu River waterfront. The goal is to emphasize the site’s internal and external connectivity, developing two distinct landscape approaches: The first one, bring-in/embrace water, emphasizes the direct visual link to the river through streetscape and different forms of water feature highlights. The second one, a multi-dimensional corporate link, creates a dense green gateway for the office’s outer setting; in contrast, the inner link within the eight office towers is highly open, multi-dimensional, and sculptural.
