Located in the heart of Hong Kong central business district, a redevelopment project in Murray Road is replacing a multi-
storey car park to create an urban oasis adjacent to Chater Garden within a short walking distance to Central and Admiralty MTR station.
The building features curved glass facade to enhance the seamless connectivity between the
interior, surrounding
gardens and city beyond. Its base is elevated to provide space for sheltered courtyards and gardens. Echoing the organic forms of the natural world, it creates new public plazas that flow into the generous communal spaces of the interior.
BLOSSOMING FLOWER-INSPIRED STRUCTURE The design reinterprets the structural forms of a blossoming Hong Kong orchid tree. High-tensile steel structure provides 26-metres wide span of column-free, Grade A office space with 5 metres floor-to-floor height giving maximum flexibility. Its vertical core is located on the eastern side of the building to provide views of Chater Garden and the city’s renowned skyline to the west.
