Shenzhen T33 Tower | Aedas Ltd

​In the Liuxiandong Headquarters Base of Shenzhen, amidst the skyline formed by steel frames and glass curtain walls, the Shenzhen T33 Tower stands among them with a vertical strip of greenery.

Aedas Global Design Principal Leo Liu took inspiration from concept of a ‘cloud hub’, and created a futuristic building for, that celebrates spirit of openness, cooperation and inclusiveness at core of a technology firm. The Shenzhen T33 Tower presents the distinctive features of a new generation office complex, which integrates flexible working environment, social interactive spaces, digital intelligence and sustainability with a lush greenery.

In terms of the spatial planning that responds to the urban ecological environment, the design places greater emphasis on the concept of ‘redefining the relationship between people, nature, and technology’. This is reflected in the integration between the architecture and the nature surrounding the park, the connection to the city, and the integration of individuals within the public and office spaces.

The design introduces a pedestrian corridor system at the lower levels to connect with other buildings, creating an active and interconnected interface with high-density green areas. This makes it an important focal point in the district and a crucial area of the city's public space. The image of the building reflects the urban atmosphere of Shenzhen, characterised by innovation, ecology, openness, and inclusivity.

By contemplating the architectural form of the ‘cloud core’ and considering the scarcity and complementarity of surrounding community businesses, T33 Tower builds upon this foundation and creates three major public functional cores. It avoids the homogeneity trap of commercial complexes and incorporates various-sized and diverse interactive functional spaces through a creative boxy design. This emphasises the connection between people, technology, and nature, imbuing the urban space with a sense of vitality.

The ground floor features dual entrances facing north and south to optimise accessibility. Through its floor-to-ceiling glass curtain walls, ample natural light is injected indoors, allowing people to immerse themselves in the warmth of sunlight while working or relaxing.

T33 Tower, with its ecological approach, gives back to society through sustainable architectural design. It redefines the relationship between people, nature, and technology. ‘With youthful, intelligent, and inclusive operation, it provides individuals with a sense of happiness and experiential fulfillment between work and life – a future inspiration that is more imaginative and is full of possibilities.’ Aedas Global Design Principal Leo Liu says.
