Overview
This experience focuses on the refined aesthetics of Central Shanghai’s urban renewal. We begin at WYSH 翡悦里, a striking new landmark on historic Wuyi Road that has transformed a former industrial site into a chic creative hub. From there, we stroll through the expansive, elegant grounds of the Xingguo Hotel, a hidden area of historic villas and greenery, before concluding at Columbia Circle (上生·新所)—a stunning blend of 1920s Art Deco architecture and modern creative design. Because these locations are geographically connected, we can maintain a relaxed pace. This allows us to focus on the interplay of light and architecture rather than rushing between distant landmarks.
Photography is the core of this experience. I utilize a range of professional systems tailored to different aesthetics: high-resolution Hasselblad X2DII 100C medium format digital for unmatched detail, Contax 645 for the timeless quality of medium format film, and Sony (A7M4/FX3) and Ricoh GR IV HDF for versatile, atmospheric street and lifestyle shots.
