RESEARCH ABSTRACT: The main structure of the project has been capped at the stage of the project. There are three original designs that have a greater impact on the existing facade reconstruction. The first part is the original design in the northeast corner of the building with two columns spanning a three-storey concrete frame The deconstructive façade treatment method weakened the entire building volume, lacking a complete display surface along the main road of the city. The transformation design unified this part with the façade of the main building and continued the corner of the stone façade . The second part is the original design at the corner of the street. In order to reflect the iconic design of the building, a glass clock tower was designed, which was separated from the main building. The rhythm changes, and reasonably circumvents the problem that the completed roof water tank occupies the best visual position on the street corner. The third part is that the depth of the building in the original design is too large, which is contrary to the requirements of natural lighting in office buildings to save energy consumption. At the same time as the problem, create a shared public activity space where employees can communicate and relax.
