NEW CITY LANDMARK

HOPSCA, composed of a great number of different functional spaces - hotels, offices, parks, shopping, convention centres and apartments - is a complex which is the periodic product of urban morphology evolution during the rapid process of modernisation and urbanisation, and has become the inevitable requirement of economic development. A term used to describe integrated developments in urban communities - where people live, work, play and shop in proximity - HOPSCA is emerging as an important piece in China s urbanisation puzzle. It combines urban activities such as office, residence, business, catering, conference, entertainment and so on in an organic way, and forms a complex of multifunction and high efficiency. This book brings together the excellent design concepts of many well-known design companies in recent years about the HOPSCA all around the world, many projects of which are underway. They will bring new breath and vitality to urban developments.
