This unique development simulates a
city-within-a-city. It comprises of four buildings; housing a shopping centre,
an office complex and a boutique hotel. All four buildings are enclosed
by an external roofing envelope comprising of Texlon® ETFE - which
acts as an environmental shield - and glass and steel structure facades.
The envelope acts as a passive modulator for creating optimal interior air
temperature and quality in contrast to Beijing’s
harsh climatic conditions.
Parkview Green FangCaoDi has achieved
LEED® Platinum Certification. In November 2010 Parkview Green
FangCaoDi was named the best Green Building in Asia: it is the first Chinese project to
win a "Green
Building" award. As
such, Parkview Green FangCaoDi is set to become a new benchmark for
technologically advanced buildings that provide energy efficient solutions.
