As designer, production leader, with EE&K Architects. Client: Franshion Properties

\The Tsingdao Harborfront Project is a large-scale, multi-modal waterfront redevelopment plan. The departure of the shipbuilding and other industries has freed up a substantial waterfront site in the heart of Tsingdao. This initiative seeks to transform the vacant site into a dense, mixed-use district, layered with various spaces anchored by a robust infrastructure basement supported by trains, ferries, and an existing highway.
The project aims to foster an open and continuous waterfront, hosting a variety of spaces and featuring an alternative arterial route to accommodate traffic amidst the urban bustle. The redevelopment is envisioned as a harmonious blend of utility and aesthetics, aiming to breathe new life into the core of Tsingdao while preserving the city's dynamic flow.
