Thus, the curvy glass panel facades with a great steady volume/fluid lines of the architectural concrete are the main image, as the sky and abstract peak, that depict the company’s visual identity. Taking their business philosophy of 3-Real, 3-More, as the detailed design concept, the purity and the weight of the concrete symbolizes the foundation of “real” honesty, responsibility and reliability. The “three” fluid pilasters running up to the sky under the rich-colored glass panels, interprets “more” encouragement for learning/thinking. The LOGO up high on the facade, with visual aid of lines, shows the ongoing improvement of the company. The conversation between “translucent” glass materials and the “opaque” architectural concrete creates an interesting facade combining volume and fluid lines. With application of 3-Dimensional Building Information Modeling, the pilasters are well measured for its accuracy, visually aiding the flow of receiving and shipping.
