Shunde Rural Commercial Bank Headquarters, Foshan, China
10 Design won the international design competition for the Shunde Rural Commercial Bank Headquarter. The development comprises a 230m tall bank HQ tower and a low-rise building accommodating a bank branch linked via a shared main lobby. The façade of the bank HQ tower incorporates a series of receding arcs on each floor all the way to the top. Inspired by the natural stones with gold-bearing veins, the edges of the tower's vertical mullions have a reflective copper finish that results in flashes of golden colour.
