    Remember some time ago in the popular TV series of friends, one of the main characters at any cost of huge loans, but also to move into the Oriental Pearl overlooking the Huangpu River mansion?
    put aside the right or wrong of this kind of behavior or not, this landscape can not escape a "true fragrance"!
    on the other side of the globe, New York, there's a mansion with great views.
    Thomas Heatherwick, the famous British "ghost" architect, has been highly sought after in recent years, showing his amazing artistic talents, from designer handbags to the main torch stand of the London Olympics to London Garden Bridge, the British National Pavilion at the Shanghai World Expo and the Shanghai Revival Art Centre. Shortly after he lured everyone into Manhattan with a container, he is now launching a new work: lantern house Lantern House

    .
    just a dozen minutes' walk from New York's newly-built landmark Hudson Yards, Lantern House is a 181-unit luxury residential complex with two towers on the 22nd and 10th floors connected by glass halls on either side of New York's High Line Park. It's not only next to the Hudson River, but also midtown Manhattan, but also surrounded by the world's best art institutions in West Chelsea, making people lament that it can be asked for $1.4 million to $17 million mansion!
    location is not the only reason for the great views of the Lantern House residents, but also without the help of Heatherwick's subtle design.
    , one of its most striking features is the huge barrel-shaped floor-to-ceiling glass bubbles that look like lanterns, and the cylindrical windows look as if they are protruding from the stone walls of the building. To achieve this effect, the top, bottom, and sides of the window use conical bay windows to create a curved appearance.
    the design was originally inspired by the windowsills of traditional Victorian houses in the UK - with radiant windowsills that make the space look more spacious.
    In the traditional Victorian house window sills
    and in Lantern House, this design gives residents a view that feels like they're in it - Heatherwick has developed floor-to-ceiling curved compositions made of flat glass panels, reinforced with bright copper-colored aluminum frames, and three-dimensional window designs that free the room from the shackles of corner columns, creating spectacular views that look like they're out of the window. Who can refuse such a view?
    Good horses need to be saddled, Heatherwick's specially designed window frames are equipped with AkzoNobel's Interpon D3000 powder coating, which guarantees aesthetics while extending its service life, allowing this exquisite design and the beauty it brings to be appreciated by more people for longer. In fact, in the United States, more designers are choosing to use powder coatings in their buildings, and our Interpon D series offers them sustainable building solutions with more color matching and durability options.
    Is this "face value and strength" that has helped Lantern House establish itselves in One of the world's busiest cities, and is another of our New York City Map, after the New York Times Building, the Brooklyn Bridge, hudson City Square, the One Vanderbilt Building, the World Trade Center PATH Station, and so on.
    Lantern House has brought new inspiration to the global construction market, and we believe there will be more innovative and beautiful designs in our cities. AkzoNobel's high-quality architectural powder coatings will also continue to color and extend the life of buildings around the world, continuing to contribute to the perfect presentation of the city skyline. We also have a "secret project" is also in preparation, stay tuned!
