RESEARCH ABSTRACT: The form of Shanghai Tower rotating 120 degree standing at Lujiazui financial district loftily. "Rotation" is not only showing the "dynamic" form in physics, it also shows lots of culture meanings behind the design, it tells the continued eternal flow is in the sky space above the whole city. The interior space form echoes the spiritual temperament of the building. Rotation, streamline and rhythm constitute the main style of the space here.
CHALLENGE: In this case, due to the spatial structure, the large elevation of the building may make the overall proportion of space appear inconsistent. Therefore, one of the great challenges for designers is to avoid the problems caused by vertical height, so that the whole space can be used rationally.
