Upper House Shanghai

What the classifiers highlight

Two crescent-shaped buildings by designer Piero Lissoni wrap a bamboo garden, a curve he says borrows from tiled Chinese rooftops, mixing Italian furniture with Chinese antiques inside. Forbes notes fourth-floor House rooms with balconies at 645 and 743 square feet, corner rooms at 968 square feet with windows on three sides, and Sui Tang Li's Cantonese, Sichuan and Shanghainese cooking.
