SWA Group makes progress on new mixed-use sculptural plaza in Guangzhou, China
Landscape architecture firm SWA Group has completed all of the ground level work including several sculptural pieces for Jianhua Plaza in Guangzhou, China. The Plaza's 1.4-hectare landscape was developed as part of the Baiyun New City Plan. SWA's landscape concept focused on developing a robust dialogue between the project's "ultra-modern" architectural forms and the landscape's softer, more organic geometries. The east portion of the site was completed and opened to the public in July this year. The site consists of two towers. One tower will be the future headquarters for Jianhua Building Materials Group, and the other will be comprised of residential penthouses. A retail podium will create a central courtyard between the two towers.
