Within Suzhou, China, the office and stock exchange building is sited along the western edge of Jinji Lake in Suzhou Industrial Park, a major commercial and mixed-use district outside the city center. Prominently anchoring a major boulevard that leads to central Suzhou, the building is conceived as a modern gateway to the historic city center. The triangular massing design responds contextually to the view corridors of the city and lake, the solar orientation of the site, and the major diagonal vehicular artery. The triangular form is also seen symbolically in China as a balanced and stable form, an image well suited to a stock exchange headquarters.

这座办公及证券交易所大楼位于苏州工业园区金鸡湖西岸，苏州工业园区是苏州市中心外重要的商业及综合体区域。它坐落于通往苏州市中心的主干道上，被设计为通往历史名城中心的现代化门户。三角形的体量设计与城市和湖泊的景观走廊、场地的朝向以及主要的对角线交通干道相呼应。三角形在中国也象征着平衡与稳定，非常适合证券交易所总部。

The signature feature of the design is a soaring internal atrium that rises the full height of the building and is enclosed with a dramatic, engineered triangular skylight. The interconnectivity of the atrium creates a commanding presence, allowing access to natural light and views from all locations within. The building enclosure is designed to minimize the overall energy consumption of the building. The triangular building form creates a self-shading massing that minimizes the east and west exposure, allowing for easier control of solar gain along the south facade. A high-performance shingled tower facade is employed to provide passive shading during the warmest summer months.

该设计的标志性特征是一个高耸的内部中庭，它与建筑同高，并被一个引人注目的三角形天窗包围。中庭的互联互通营造出一种居高临下的气势，使建筑内部各个位置都能获得充足的自然光线和开阔的视野。建筑围护结构的设计旨在最大限度地降低建筑的整体能耗。三角形的建筑形态营造出自遮阳的体量，最大限度地减少了东西向的日照，从而更容易控制南立面的日照增益。塔楼采用高性能木瓦立面，在夏季最热的月份提供被动遮阳。
