Callison to Design Mixed-Use Complex in China
December 03, 2008

Seattle-based retail design firm Callison has been selected by developer China Resources Land Limited (CRLL) to design phase one of 24 City, a new urban community that will house more than 60,000 new residents in Chengdu. The 3.3 million-sq.-ft. mixed-use project includes a retail center and a 38-story office tower. To attract the city's burgeoning population of young, active professionals, the hybrid retail complex carefully modulates indoor/outdoor shopping and entertainment among lush landscaping and expansive view terraces. The complex's design also includes an indoor skating rink, an eight-screen movie complex and a supermarket. The restaurants and public garden will remain open after the center closes, offering public events and positioning 24 City as a nighttime destination. Callison will complete design development before the Chinese New Year. Ground-breaking is scheduled for March 2009.
