The new Oppo’s headquarters comprises of four transparent united towers reaching a height of 200m (42 floors) and has an area of 185,000 sq.m, with an inviting platform connected with the street. The two inner towers are designed to be well-functioning open spaces, free of service cores that might interrupt the visual and physical connectivity.
Meanwhile, the two external towers function as services’ cores, maximizing the views over Shenzhen Bay along the workspace. The four towers recede organically at street level to create a safe, accessible urban space.

The new office building maximizes its function as a public retreat both horizontally and vertically. A street-level diagonal passage carves its way through the building, besides a direct link to the nearby metro station. While on the vertical access; a 10th-floor public plaza represents a destination for both employees and visitors to experience a variety of recreational facilities including dining and shopping.
