Offering a mixture of office, retail, and serviced apartments, Spring City 66 is one of the largest commercial complexes in Kunming and the first development of Hang Lung Properties in Southwest China. Designed by KPF, the tower seamlessly blends with its surrounding landscape and historical location with features derived from limestone formations of Kunming Stone Forest. Another key design element is the horizontal facade of the retail podium that produces shading properties and provides a subtle yet elegant appearance. With ALT as the facade consultant, integrating a unitized glass curtain wall system with horizontal and vertical aluminum that considers the intelligent design of the tower enhances the building’s performance.
