设计亮点

创新的天空花园，轻质结构，先进的参数化设计。

Designed by Gensler, Vertical Urbanism. Shanghai Tower is designed to embrace and stimulate the life of the city. Yet, instead of parks spread horizontally across the city, the tower provides gathering spaces stacked vertically. These are the innovative sky gardens that set the building apart from any highrise ever built. By emphasizing public space and locating shops, restaurants and urban amenities at the atrium levels, Shanghai Tower provides a new experience for living and working in supertall towers. Why this shape? Gensler’s design team anticipated that three key strategies—the tower’s asymmetrical form, it’s tapering profile and its rounded corners—would allow the building to withstand the typhoon-force winds that are common in Shanghai.

Using wind tunnel tests conducted in a Canadian lab, Gensler and structural engineer Thornton Tomasetti refined the tower’s form, which reduced building wind loads by 24 percent. The result is a lighter structure that saved $58 million in costly materials.
