Dynamic Center for "The Springs" / gmp Architects

The architects von Gerkan, Marg and Partners (gmp) have completed an office campus in the northern part of Shanghai. It is located in Jiangwan New Town in the Yangpu District, with the commercial quarter of Wujiaochang to the south and the green spaces of the university town to the north. The building complex consists of high-rise slabs arranged in windmill formation and an organically shaped plinth landscape with shops and restaurants, forming the core of the new urban district "The Springs." This area of approximately 90 hectares, which includes office spaces, residential areas, hotels, as well as retail outlets, eateries, and entertainment facilities, has been developed in phases by the real estate company Tishman Speyer since 2011.
