Winning Projects:
- Everbright Beijing Zhongguancun – Winner (Architectural Design – Redevelopment & Renovation)

- Yanlord Taicang Retail Mall – Honorable Mention (Interior Design – Commercial Retail, Department Stores, Mall)
Everbright Beijing Zhongguancun (ZGC)
The renovation work of Beijing Zhongguancun aims to transform the isolated site into a park-style commercial complex, creating a sacred landmark that incorporates art, culture, technology, and design that meets the needs of the new generation. CAN breaks standard commercial conventions and proposes a transparent, multi-level and interactive destination that creates new scenarios and experiential value in the development.
Inspired by the “green lung of the city”, the concept is a true reinterpretation of the retail-in-park / park-in-retail design. The design revitalizes Zhongguancun’s reputation as China’s Silicon Valley and provides a platform for the entire Zhongguancun Science City to showcase China’s newest technologies through different featured spaces.
Large-scale Airport Terminal Renovation Project
The definition of an airport has evolved so much that it’s no longer just a transportation hub but also becomes a not-to-be-missed destination providing a remarkable and diversified experience. As a gateway to an international city, Terminal 1 is given a brand-new image and ambiance by providing a welcoming and refreshing design that would grant a new life to the airport.
The people-oriented design strategically explores the implementation of value-added services, innovative technologies for boarding procedures, and stress-relieving design elements with greenery. With the experience-led approach, the design reflects the vibrancy of Guangzhou while enhancing the travel experience to create an iconic lifestyle destination. The design transforms Terminal 1 into a vibrant and integrated transport gateway in the region.
Yanlord Taicang Retail
Overlooking the picturesque Central Lake in Taicang, the design of the lifestyle mall complements the site’s surrounding features, mixing contemporary design with modern geometrical forms and textured materials.
From atrium to arcade, lift lobby to clubhouse, the design is simultaneously modern and intimate, expansive and cozy, harmonizing the interior space with the overall structure. The stylish installations and exquisite features allow for an elegant and chill atmosphere, creating a unique environment where visitors can enjoy the sophisticated details along their way.
Thank you to Outstanding Property Award London for the recognition and congratulations to the teams involved.
