Tencent Headquarters by MAD Architects

Tencent is developing its new headquarters campus on five parcels spanning over 80 hectares east of Da Chan Bay Island in Shenzhen. MAD Architects has designed the East part of Tencent's new headquarters, envisioning two biomorphic office towers, three interconnected buildings, and a raindrop-shaped building. The layout is centered around an expansive park, with protected sea-facing areas designed for outdoor gatherings, exhibitions, or events. This project covers approximately 72,000 square meters with a Gross Floor Area of 412,000 square meters. Currently under construction, the headquarters is expected to be completed and open for users in 2025.

The layout of MAD Architects’ proposed project is designed to create a soft transition from land to sea. The ground floor buildings are elevated to create a floating appearance, while the bottom sections are rendered in transparent, ultra-high frameless glass to strengthen the connection between outdoor and indoor. The central and northern buildings are dedicated office spaces, each featuring distinctive open landscape atriums. These varied atrium designs contribute significantly to shading, ventilation, and energy efficiency.
