Planetworks elevates the third in a series of tall towers for Ping An in the heart of Shenzhen—a cornerstone project where we refined our approach to integrating human-centric experiences within urban skyscrapers.

Planetworks 为平安集团位于深圳市中心的系列高层建筑中的第三座进行提升——这是一个奠基性项目，我们在此项目中改进了将以人为本的体验融入城市摩天大楼的理念。

ELEVATING EXPERIENCE   提升体验

Planetworks deconstructed the imposing scale of the high-rise tower into relatable human experiences. We designed an uplifted tower base to not only provide open, communal settings amid the urban sprawl but also serve as focal points where nature and architecture converge. By making the towering structure more accessible and inviting, we aim to transform it into a series of personal encounters that resonate with daily human interactions.

Planetworks 将高层建筑的宏伟规模解构为可感知的人文体验。我们设计了一个提升的建筑基座，不仅在城市扩张中提供开放的公共空间，更使其成为自然与建筑交汇的焦点。通过使这座高耸的建筑更易于接近和吸引人，我们旨在将其转化为一系列与日常人际互动产生共鸣的私人体验。

BRINGING A BUILDING TO LIFE   赋予建筑生命

The proposal resulted in an exposed, outdoor ceiling at the bottom of the uplifted tower - a ‘fifth facade’ absent in nearly all buildings. The proximity of the ceiling to the elevated plaza initiated a dialogue between the building and pedestrians which the team believed could be enhanced by animating the exposed surface.

该方案在提升的建筑底部设置了一个外露的室外天花板——几乎所有建筑都没有的“第五立面”。天花板与架空广场的紧密联系，引发了建筑与行人之间的对话，团队认为，通过赋予裸露表面活力，可以增强这种对话。

OPEN & CONNECT URBAN CENTER   开放与连接城市中心

How to increase density on the site while opening and connecting one of the world’s busiest urban centers? AI Planetworks’ solution was to float the mass of the 208-meter tall, thirty-seven story tower to create an elevated public plaza which connects to Shenzhen’s pedestrian bridge network. Inspired by bioluminescence in nature, the designers at AI Planetworks felt that, not only could they animate a building by providing it with a central nervous system, but they could also make it appear as if the building is communicating.

如何在开放和连接全球最繁忙的城市中心之一的同时，提升场地密度？AI Planetworks 的解决方案是将这座208米高、37层的塔楼悬浮起来，打造一个架空的公共广场，并与深圳的人行天桥网络相连。受自然界生物发光现象的启发，AI Planetworks 的设计师们认为，他们不仅可以通过赋予建筑中枢神经系统活力，使其焕发生机，还能让建筑看起来像是在进行交流。

Finally, the team was inspired by the morning glories which can open and close as the light changes, which leads to a high-tech facade solution: a city-scale interactive ceiling named CELIA (Computer Enhanced, Luminous Interactive Architecture). This innovative ceiling processes sensor data, generating intricate motion and lighting patterns in response to human movement and the building’s internal systems.

最终，团队从能够随着光线变化而开合的牵牛花中汲取灵感，最终设计出一种高科技的立面解决方案：一个名为 CELIA（Computer Enhanced, Luminous Interactive Architecture，计算机增强发光互动建筑）的城市规模互动天花板。这种创新的天花板能够处理传感器数据，根据人体运动和建筑内部系统生成复杂的运动和照明模式。

SHARED SKY   共享天空

The building also features a distinctive “sixth facade” - a butterfly-shaped trellis - which crowns a rooftop solarium. While being the most attractive space for a tall building, the roof spaces of towers are typically occupied by mechanical and building maintenance equipment. PingAn asset insurance tower returns the sky to the building users by providing a rooftop solarium which has multi-dimension permeable facade at 208m tall. The glass barrier created by traditional towers is diminished and people can reconnect with outdoor and nature again.

该建筑还拥有独特的“第六立面”——蝴蝶形网格结构，覆盖着屋顶日光浴室。虽然屋顶空间是高层建筑最具吸引力的空间，但塔楼的屋顶空间通常被机械和建筑维护设备占用。深圳平安财险大厦在208米高处提供了一个具有多维度通透立面的屋顶日光浴室，将天空归还给建筑使用者。传统塔楼造成的玻璃屏障被打破，人们可以重新与户外和自然建立联系。
