Scheme seeks to promote sustainability and wellbeing through access to green spaces

Designs for the Changfeng mixed-use development in Shanghai have been unveiled by Foster & Partners.

The project, situated in the Shanghai Science and Technology Finance cluster within the city’s Putuo District, is part of the broader Shanghai 2035 masterplan.

Fosters describes the design concept as being based on the ‘LWP’ model, which focuses on creating spaces for living, working, and playing.

Gerard Evenden, Head of Studio, Foster + Partners, said: “The project transforms an industrial area into a vibrant mixed-use neighbourhood in the heart of Shanghai.

“The human-scale development is designed to improve connectivity across the site, bringing people together and improving wellbeing through art, greenery and outstanding new public spaces.”
