Hi everyone! Today I will take you to visit a pyramid apartment in China. It is located in Huaqiao Town, Kunshan City, Jiangsu Province, which is adjacent to Shanghai. This apartment is wellknown for its unique shape, but it has also been controversial.
The design of this apartment was created by M.A.O., a Japanese architecture firm. The design is called a "steppedback design" because each floor steps back from the one below it. This allows each floor to have a gardenstyle balcony, but it also has some drawbacks. The interior ventilation is inconvenient and the lighting is poor. In addition, the apartment has over 1,000 different floor plans, almost all of which are lofts. This makes the interior ventilation, fire protection, and pipework design very complex.
So let's take a look at this amazing building together!
