长江左岸，荆楚之地，Aedas董事陈玉莹、主席及全球设计董事纪达夫（Keith Griffiths）带领团队，与帝奥设计集团组成联合体，在此赢得了位于二七大桥桥头门户的新希望华中区域总部项目竞赛。设计以优美典雅的线条勾勒出山水意境，打造高贵、典雅且富有文化韵味的城市门户形象。
The Aedas and Do Design consortium has recently won the competition for the New Hope Central China Regional Headquarters at the riverside of Yangtze River in Wuhan, China.
项目位于二七滨江商务区的端部，北临二七长江大桥，东临沿江大道，西临中山大道，优越的地理位置使其在上位城市规划中，成为了城市天际线三足鼎立的重要存在，同时地块与长江隔滨江绿化而望，景观视野极佳。
The project is perched at the northern end of the riverside business district. It overlooks the Erqi Yangtze River Bridge and is surrounded by convenient transportation network. In a superior geographical location, the New Hope Central China Regional Headquarters peers across the riverside greenery of excellent landscape view. Marked by its elegant flow lines that correspond to the surrounding Yangtze, the high-rise allegorically represents Wuhan as a vivacious cultural capital.
“无论是上位城市规划层面的要求，还是紧邻二七长江大桥的城市界面展示需要，这里急需一座可以成为武汉全新城市名片的综合体。”陈玉莹说道： “设计反映城市独特的地理和人文的气质：武汉1/4面积为水，水为柔，武汉人韧性刚毅，人为刚，设计力度的控制尤其重要，需刚柔并济。同时削弱周边高架立交带来的负面影响，使景观资源最大化呈现。”
Director Fiona Chen describes, “Wuhan has a unique topography that one-fourth of it is covered by water. The architectural concept is a balance between hardness and softness, pointing to the juxtaposition between the fluidity of water and the resilience of Wuhan’s people. It reduces the negative impact of surrounding elevated overpasses to ensure systematic circulation."

设计从武汉纪念伯牙子期的古琴台中汲取灵感，将“高山流水”这一典故以现代建筑语言抽象诠释，选取“聚落之曲，流水知音”为整体布局与形体理念。
“依江而筑，群聚而生。这是武汉荆楚文化的开端，我们希望将传统聚落以更具活力、呈现多种活动的形式在现代都市重现。通过五座塔楼围合式布局，生成内部公共空间，以开放渗透的多维路径串联江滩公园，回应两江相交的大气岸景肌理，形成四海呼应之态，迎远道而来之客。”纪达夫如是说。
Interpreting with contemporary architectural language, the design draws inspiration from the ancient guqin tune of “High Mountains and Flowing Water”, which is about friendship and community bond through music and art in Chinese culture. "Wuhan’s culture emphasises on riverside culture and congregated living. We hope to reproduce traditional settlements in modern cities through dynamic and diverse forms of activities. The design generates internal public spaces through the enclosed tower disposition, and connects the development with the adjacent Bridge Park by setting permeable paths," explained Aedas Chairman and Global Design Principal Keith Griffiths.
Fa?ade echoing with the landscape
设计充分考虑城市各个视角的地标性，二七桥上无论远景近景，都能实现最优的建筑形象，尊重上位规划的“天际之门”概念，向二七桥展示塔楼带来的地标感受。
基于“聚落”规划布局充分利用江景视野，实现各功能单元间的彼此独立又连接聚合。主塔楼及副塔楼沿江而设，主塔为办公及五星酒店，尽览蜿蜒奔淌的长江美景，通过商业裙楼与副塔办公楼彼此连接。为避免两座塔楼间距过近造成对视，两塔之间形成一定夹角关系，也让南面的三座高端住宅拥有了最大化的江景视野。
Based on the notion of community and congregated living, the layout aims to fully capitalise on the river view and realise function interconnections. The 250-metre main tower and a 200-metre auxiliary tower are located along the site’s east frontage. The main tower houses office and a five-star hotel, enjoys a panoramic view of the Yangtze River, is connected to the auxiliary office tower through a retail podium. As a result of strategic angle maneuvering, the three high-end residences on the west side are afforded maximum river view.
Cityscape view from “Eye of Hope”
主副塔楼以武汉特色的知音文化为出发点，“取琴之弦，以琴之形”象征流水知音之意，以流畅线条塑造“高山流水?希望之音”的建筑整体形象。
塔楼以竖向线条通过中间分叉汇聚的方式犹如水流奔腾而下汇入长江，弹奏出穿梭时代的希望之音。塔楼顶部以长江上“灯塔”为立意，呼应立面元素，构成“万灯辉映?希望之光”的顶冠效果。仰望塔楼，高耸入云，气势直指云霄，塔冠带来了指引与更强的地标感受。
整体造型简洁流畅，金属线条变化优雅大气，挺拔精致；弧形玻璃凸台扩大望江视野，在阳光照耀下呈现微妙的明暗光影变化。
The outline of the towers mimics the shape of a guqin, fa?ade covered with dynamic string-like lines. The nuanced lines combined with different curtain walls evoke simplicity in the office area while the bay windows in the hotel area help maximise landscape view. The overall varied, irregular architectural form compounded with the rounded corners diminish horizontal wind load, achieving perfect unity of function and form.
Fa?ade with dynamic string-like lines “Wings of Hope”
裙房如大鹏展翅，迎宾千里，通过动感的流线型设计，与塔楼立面彼此呼应，勾勒出腾飞跃起的入口形象，成为助力武汉经济腾飞的“希望之翼”。
为避免立交桥遮挡，设计将裙房抬升架空，打通绿地与后方住区，改善社区微环境，优化通风；同时提升两座塔楼的立面交互，形成视觉与功能上的多重连接，加强整座建筑的整体性与互动性。
The podium, in a dynamic streamlined form, echoes and blends with the tower fa?ade. It is deliberately raised to open up the green space and the residential area, and to optimise ventilation throughout the development. This design symbolizes the “wings of hope” that usher in prosperity for the metropolis. The tunnel formed at the ground floor will serve as an exclusive covered drop-off area, indicated by the indented floor plates and congregating curves on the fa?ade. The podium rooftop is designed with a featured skylight, and the fluid shape echoes the sky corridor linking the two towers, which altogether strengthens the integrity of the project.
Iconic development in Wuhan
为削弱有限面积中多座塔楼带来的压迫感与拥挤感，设计巧妙地以流线型手法将景观与东侧高架下方的桥头公园串联，以一体化设计实现大面积绿色空间与水景生态的结合，在自然内生的开放性中，构建出错落有致的层级空间，营造出隐循内敛的山水雅居之感。
同时设计根据不同目的地构建了人车分离的高效动线，将办公、酒店等公区功能及流线设置在外侧，私区流线内置，提升住宅区的私密性。
In order to create more open space, a streamlined approach is adopted to connect the landscape with the Bridge Park under the eastern viaduct, simultaneously creating harmony between built area and greenery. The design also segregates the movement of people and vehicles by functionality, placing the circulation of hotel and office space users on the outside, while optimizing the privacy of the residential area.
“我们希望为武汉增添一座富有文化韵味的门户形象，以典雅灵动的线条勾勒出山水意境，打造人文聚落的诗意生长，并给予这座城市最深层的祝福。”
纪达夫如是说。
