K11

K11 is a 61-floor skyscraper on Huaihai Road in Shanghai, China, housing offices, shops, and a hotel. The main entrance opens onto a circular outdoor plaza that facilitates access from street level.

The tower was completed in 2002 and counts among the early high-rises in Shanghai designed according to North American planning standards. Its construction already considered at that time the integration of parking areas within the building.

The tower is used by various companies and shows inside the daily life of modern business districts in Shanghai. The shops and offices attract professionals from across the city who move through the building as part of their daily routine.

The public areas with shops are located on the lower floors, while the offices sit above. Access to the metro is available directly from the building, making arrival by public transport easier.

In 2004, the tower was recognized by the Development Research Center of the State Council as one of China's ten new landmarks. This recognition honors its role in the development of contemporary architecture in Shanghai.
