Inside Shanghai's Building Masterpiece: 1000 Trees
If you happen to fly over the Shanghai, you’ll find 1000-odd trees rising from a building. This building is actually called 1000 trees and is located in the residential district of Putuo in northwest Shanghai, home to more than 1.2 million people. To the building’s north, we have a beautiful lake; Suzhou Creek, and to the south we have the fascinating M50 district. The M50 district where this masterpiece is located, is a contemporary art district. It houses more than 100 artists and is often compared to New York's SoHo and Beijing's 798 Art Zone. This has made it a popular cultural attraction for local and international visitors alike. The buildings around 1000 trees were lifeless, gray concrete structures that were giving a very dull impression to the city. This project is supposed to defy all conventional architectural norms and stand out from the rest. The columns on which the trees rest and the lush greenery of the outside corridor are reminiscent of the Hanging Gardens of Babylon.

According to Thomas Heatherwick, the designer behind this project, he intended to make it the heart of the neighborhood. This area was previously an industrial center, with factories, warehouses, and other grim buildings. But after the early 2000s, the region went through a massive gentrification that replaced the industries with art galleries, artists’ studios, design agencies, and other visual art businesses. 1000 Trees isn’t just a stunning building to feast your eyes with, it's a mixed-use space. It's a nine-story shopping center that contains 166 stores and restaurants. The place looks even more breathtaking at night, as the light illuminates each tree, giving the impression of a golden castle from afar. Its proximity to the lake as well as its greenery, establishes a link with nature where people can gather, talk, and absorb its magnificence.
