International Offshore Financial Centre in Haikou Jiangdong, China, in final phase of construction

The latest image shows good construction progress at our project, the International Offshore Financial Centre for Shandong Energy Group in the Jiangdong district of Haikou, China, which is due to be completed at the end of 2024.

The 87,000m2 GBA “Twin Towers Gateway” project, for which Chapman Taylor won an international design competition, aims to create a new business centre in the city. It will combine high-quality offices with vibrant commercial blocks offering retail, hospitality, and leisure.

Working with the site's characteristics, the project takes the form of a double tower, which acts as the regional centre. The towers will have 18 and 22 floors of above-ground space, respectively, with three additional underground floors.

The lower-level commercial floors are seamlessly integrated with the wider urban centre, and the city atmosphere helps to attract visitors to the shopping and F&B units within. The hotel section is located on the top floors of the building, and it offers panoramic views over the sea and access to a large infinity pool.

Our design meets the strict planning requirements for the area while creating an attractive and innovative business hub for Jiangdong New District. The landmark project is designed to be a functionally efficient and flexible business headquarters while welcoming members of the public.

A north-south visual corridor allows for the best sea views from the southern part of the building. The architecture combines strength and flexibility while enjoying the beautiful seaside setting.
