POSITEC: A NEW PROJECT IN CHINA FOR SAMYN AND PARTNERS
The Chinese company “Positec”, based in Suzhou, is specialized in small practical and smart power tools. She called upon SAMYN and PARTNERS for the structuring of its administrative and technical campus (01/664-1) as well as the construction of a new head office (01/664-2). The 20 floors, 15.000 sqm tower, named “The Sun Machine” because of its two half-cylinders of photovoltaic panels following the path of the sun, is energy neutral. The project aims for the “BREEAM outstanding” certification. Philippe SAMYN presented the project and its model to the CEO of the company, Don Gao, at a meeting organized in Suzhou on January 20, 2020. This is our second project coming to fruition in China, after the Lujiazhi cultural cafe in Zhoushan.
