Rocco Design Architects Takes On a New Project in Shenzhen

Tags: Rocco Design Architects, Rocco Shekou Shenzhen project

Rocco Design Architects is set to build a new office development in Shekou, Shenzhen on a site area spanning 27,777sqm.

The project consists of two lots with three staggered towers each. Consideration has been made to creating dynamic work environments, with ample communal spaces of varying scales in the form of streets, courtyards and plazas that both workers and the public can enjoy.

Taking advantage of the stepping architectural composition, terraces and green features are also introduced at different levels to offer environmentally pleasant work areas and additional amenities to the tenants.

Sustainability features high on the agenda. The project utilises sustainable building materials, and features photovoltaic roof panels, low-e glass, LED lighting systems, energy saving air-conditioning and cooling systems, a rain water collection system for irrigation, and various sustainable building materials.
