Located near the banks of the Suzhou River, 1000 Trees is a mixed-use project that incorporates 1000 trees and 250,000 plants into the architecture of the building. It was designed by Thomas Heatherwick and meant to look like a mountain covered with trees. Thomas Heatherwick is also the designer behind The Vessel in Hudson Yards. 1,000 Trees was explicitly designed to NOT look like a sterile concrete building that mixed-use developments often resemble. And they did not want this to just blend in with all the high-rise buildings around it. Phase 1 is technically a shopping mall, but it’s meant to be much more than that. Instead, the goal was to humanize architecture and blend art with functionality. So, we ended up with a building that has 1,000 trees placed on top of these concrete columns that go all the way through the building’s structure.
