Chongqing- On May 25, Chongqing's first 100-story skyscraper, the International Land-Sea Center, ushered in its new project name, "Chongqing 100." This skyscraper will refresh Chongqing's skyline. Chongqing 100 represents the city's spirit of climbing up and leading Chongqing to build an international consumption center, where it offers the highest cloud walk experience in China. Visitors will be at an altitude of 458 meters, just like walking in the clouds. In addition, there is a 360° bird's-eye view of the bustling city of Chongqing, making it the next must-check spot in Chongqing.

Like the Empire State Building in New York, the Taipei 101 Building, and the Federal 108 Building, Chongqing 100 will serve as a documentary connecting the city's history and future. The building represents the urban economy, technology, art, and other elements. It is also a symbol of Chongqing's local culture and spiritual core, allowing people to communicate with the world through architecture.

A new business card of Chongqing

In 2019, Chongqing became the connection point of the Belt and Road Initiative and the Yangtze River Economic Belt, a vital fulcrum of China's Western Development Strategy and the operation center of the New International Land-Sea Trade Corridor. In 2020, Chongqing launched the only foreign-related business zone, Chongqing international business district. Meanwhile, Chongqing Vanke launched a city renewal plan. In 2022, Chongqing is spending efforts to cultivate the international consumption center. To build a new development pattern for the international consumption center, Chongqing 100 was born.

The name Chongqing 100 is not only a manifestation of a 100-floor-height but also a condensed spirit of Chongqing. It's a super project that consumed 79,000 tons of steel, with a height of 458 meters. It's also Chongqing's first skyscraper to win the Green Building Evaluation Label (China Three Star) and the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED).

"1" represents the building stairs and contains the unique texture of the city's land. The building looks like a bamboo knot, which conveys the upward urban spirit of Chongqing. The graphic element on the right takes the deformation of the first letter of "Chongqing" and the intersection of the two rivers as the visual matrix, forming an infinite symbol with unique Chongqing characteristics.
