If you’re out and about in Soho, you might spot a new tower development reaching structural completion, opposite to the Kinwick Centre on Shelley Street.
CSI appointed KplusK to create the Architectural Design of a Ginza style tower on Shelley Street, Central. Situated alongside the iconic Central to Mid-levels escalator, KplusK saw an opportunity to create a strong relationship between the new tower and the ever-bustling Soho District. The dramatic inclined podium incorporates massive operable windows creating a visual and sensual link to the street.
This “Ginza Style” tower above the podium will accommodate 19 floors of restaurants, bars and leisure based commercial facilities. The design accentuates the lightness of the non-loadbearing façade, with Mullion-less glazed corners and recessed glass spandrels.
We are looking forward to the multileveled opening party.
