In 2000, JGP's Yanlord Garden Phase I in Shanghai received the Copper Prize for Architecture for Paragon Projects in the Ten Year Developments of Pudong.
JGP Architecture's Yanlord Garden Phase I in Shanghai received the Copper Prize for Architecture for Paragon Projects in the Ten Year Developments of Pudong, awarded by the Shanghai Municipal Government and Pudong New Area Development Administrative Bureau in 2000.
The residential development departed from the conventional planning norms of the time in Shanghai, which typically required all blocks to face north-south. Positioned close to the Huangpu River, the site planning was designed to capture views of the Bund and the Pudong Commercial Hub.
Yanlord Garden Phase I was completed in 2002 and remains part of JGP's portfolio of residential work in Shanghai's Pudong district.
