The doors swung open today to the latest Shanghai studio of international interior design and architecture powerhouse, Woods Bagot.

Being dubbed the 2009 AJ100 International practice of the year was the result of 25 years of escalating strength within the Asian region. This is yet another step.
“I am confident that the breath of talents in our Shanghai studio, together with those in our studios in Beijing and Hong Kong, will continue to deliver some of the most extraordinary and award-winning architecture designs for our clients in the region,” said Ross Donaldson, Global Executive Chairman and CEO, Woods Bagot.

Look out for the recently opened, ‘Plaza 358’ in Shanghai for an example of their high-tech creativity.
