    The Nanjing International Youth Cultural Centre in China consists of two towers - a 315 meter tower containing offices and a hotel, and a 255 meter tower containing another hotel. The towers are connected by a five-level podium that houses the cultural center. The cultural center contains four main program elements - a conference hall that seats 2100, an auditorium, and two multifunctional halls - that are arranged around a central courtyard and merge at upper levels. The taller tower signifies the position of the cultural center within the urban context and skyline of Nanjing.
