The project is located at the starting point of Hangzhou West Science and Technology Innovation Corridor, in the Zijingang area at the north of Sandun Town. It is adjacent to the AliCloud Valley, and close to Zijingang Campus of Zhejiang University, possessing huge potential for future development. The architects discarded the conventional design approaches, and integrated the natural environment with the unique temperament of the project site based on the needs of urban development, hence creating the ideal town for the future. The project adopts the conceptual planning system with the theme of ‘City Above The Clouds’. Four main buildings are stacked on double-storey circular commercial podium buildings respectively to form a central green park. The commercial space on the first floor has multiple entrances connected to the city, creating a vibrant, three-dimensional and open ideal city.
