The Ping An Teda Finance Center stitches together two of Tianjin’s key zones, its historic concessions and its bustling central business district, with a mixed-use program comprising an office tower, apartment building, and articulated retail podium.

平安泰达金融中心巧妙地将天津两大核心区域——历史悠久的租界区和繁华的中央商务区连接起来，打造出一个集办公塔楼、公寓楼和裙楼于一体的综合体项目。

The towers are organized perpendicularly maximize unobstructed, and, together, openly gesture toward the Haihe River to the northeast. As one of the tallest buildings in city, the office tower serves as a beacon for the project, visible from the surrounding metropolis and the riverfront.

两座塔楼垂直排列，最大限度地保证了视野的开阔，共同向东北方向的海河方向延伸。作为天津最高的建筑之一，办公塔楼犹如一座灯塔，从周边城市和滨江地区都能清晰可见。

The massing of both towers are broken down into vertical bars that recall the scale of the historic fabric – the office tower is articulated as three bars while the serviced apartment tower is two. Clad in bespoke vertical fins, the façades of each tower are designed to emphasize slender verticality. The unique curving shape of the vertical fins catches light in varying ways depending on the viewing angle, causing the towers’ color and texture constantly change as one moves around the buildings.

两座塔楼的体量均被分解成垂直的条形，呼应了历史建筑的尺度——办公塔楼由三条条形构成，而公寓楼则由两条条形构成。每座塔楼的立面都覆以定制的垂直鳍片，旨在强调其纤细的垂直感。这些垂直鳍片独特的弧形设计，能够根据观看角度的不同而呈现出不同的光线效果，使塔楼的色彩和纹理随着人们在建筑周围移动而不断变化。

The Centre’s retail component provides a connection between the two towers and the adjacent neighborhoods. Organized around a series of indoor courtyards, each retail store is defined as a distinct volume, which translates to the exterior of the building where the podium façade is broken down into boxes, each with its own character. The scale and rhythm of the boxes recalls the historic fabric of Tianjin in scale, color, and texture.

该中心的零售部分连接了两座塔楼和周边街区。零售店铺围绕一系列室内庭院布局，每个店铺都拥有独立的体量，这种设计理念也延伸至建筑外观：裙楼立面被分割成一个个风格各异的盒子。这些盒子的尺度和韵律，在比例、色彩和纹理上都呼应了天津的历史风貌。
