Bountiful Journey Tower in Taiwan by RDAI

The Nanjing Songjiang “Mixed-­‐Use” tower (commercial/hotel/apartments) is located at the crossroads of two main arteries in central Taipei. Solidly anchored to the ground, the silhouette of this 95-­‐metre urban monolith rises vertically. The tower’s scale is complexified by a stone-­‐clad structural grid organized over three successive levels. On the roof, a pavilion surrounded by gardens, echoes the nature of the nearby mountains.
