Name: 1,000 Trees
Address: Put District Shanghai
Architect: Thomas Heatherwick
Style: Sustainable
Description: Mixed use development in Shanghai designed by Thomas Heatherwick. Two towers that read as mountains are joined together by terraced gardens all along the roof, combining architecture and nature along the Suzhou Creek. The columns are very reminiscent of the tulip structures used in Heatherwicks Little Island Project in NYC.
