Ahaha大厦是一个集历史，文化和环境为一身的当代建筑典范。做为该栋建筑的载体，Ward Village项目获得了城市总体规划中住区发展项目的铂金奖。坐落于欧胡岛充满活力的Kaka’ako社区，这栋40层，857000平方英尺的大厦为城市创造了311户公寓单元，并将以工业和零售业为主导的社区环境打造成全时混合社区。
Combining history, context, and culture, the Anaha tower is an extraordinary example of contemporary architectural place-making. The condominium begins the implementation of Ward Village, which is largest Platinum Certified LEED for Neighborhood Development (LEED-ND) masterplan in the country. Located in the vibrant Kaka’ako district of Oahu, the 40-story, 857,000-square-foot tower creates 311 condominium homes that will help transform the previously industrial and retail focused district into a 24-hour mixed use community.

Anaha在夏威夷语中意为“光的反射”。该塔楼波状起伏的外貌受到岛上传统艺术中抽象海浪的启发。一系列彼此连接又相互扭动的建筑平面，搭配高科技的玻璃外墙，使建筑周身在光照下展现出不断变化的外貌，如同阳光下的海浪般闪烁耀眼，也令其成为海岸线的独特风景。
Anaha means “reflection of light” in Hawaiian. The tower’s undulating form was inspired by the island’s artistic tradition of abstracting waves. Through a sequence of shifted, interlocking, and softly curved floor plates and its high performance glass curtain wall, the façade appears to be ever-changing in the light, like a wave shimmering in the sun, making the tower a distinctive and dynamic addition to the coast line.

塔楼的长向轴线充分利用了场地环境的有利条件。塔楼的主入口清晰明确的布置在其正下方，而位于其侧的零售商店和联排房屋则带动了整条Kamakee大街。零售商店沿街面步行道而设，茵郁的步行环境让建筑与街道之间的生活焕发新生，也赋予建筑一个可控的立面形态。
The orientation of the tower’s long axis is placed ‘Mauka-Makai’, or mountain to ocean, which preserves coastal views from inland vantage points. The tower is brought cleanly down to the street to mark the residential entrance. The podium retail and townhomes activate Kamakee Street. Retail spaces are arranged along a shaded pedestrian promenade that connects Auahi and Queen Streets and feature operable facades to connect directly and stimulate street life.

群楼上植有8000多种源自本土的热带植物，它们密布于此，并贯穿至室内外空间。向上仰望，位于建筑七层楼高80英尺处的玻璃水底泳池，与建筑边缘探出身来，悬挑长度达15英尺。其独特的造型令人印象深刻。
Between the tower and podium geometries, a tranquil water feature is framed by one the country’s largest verdant ‘living walls’, which contains a blend of 8,000 indigenous tropical plants and passes through the lobby façade, connecting outside and in. Perched 80 feet above Auahi Street, a glass-bottomed, saltwater pool cantilevers 15 feet off the edge of the seventh floor amenity deck creating a memorable spectacle.

Anaha大厦以可持续的建造标准，打造出睦邻友好的建筑单体，同时也为居住者营造了舒适的生活环境。传统的建筑立面并不能很好的表达设计师的设计意图，因此，设计团队采用波动的立面轮廓，并大面积利用太阳能高效玻璃，实现了技术与美学的双重标准。朱丽叶窗户阳台使得立面得以全部打开，让海洋微风习习而来，为室内外居住空间带来舒适的体验。建筑大量选用本地原生材料，并加大回收材料的使用比例，避免挥发性化学物质对居住者的伤害。厨房器具和工业配件均含有节能和节水特质。
The design for Anaha employs numerous sustainable strategies and materials to create a building that is both environmentally responsive and focused on resident comfort. Since conventional faceted glazing could not convey the design intent and sinuous contours of the facade, the design team turned to large-format, solar-efficient radiused glass to meet both the technical performance and desired aesthetic. Juliet balconies allow the façade to open up, taking advantage of warm ocean breezes and allowing for an indoor/outdoor living experience for residents. Locally sourced materials also contain recycled content to the greatest degree possible and were selected to reduce or eliminate volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Kitchen appliances and plumbing fixtures and fittings are energy- and water-conserving models.
