SOHO is one of China’s largest private real estate developers. The project is located in a trendy Shanghai district where we transformed a former 14,000-square-meter department store on five levels into a dynamic workspace. The two-level campus on the ground floor connects the energy of the coworking space with the pulse of the city. The campus forms the centrepiece of the building: a two-level community hub. A new spiral staircase makes a bold sculptural gesture, connecting all upper floors. Terrazzo floors, open ceilings. and wooden surfaces combine with bold colours to create an inspiring yet engaging atmosphere.
