Evergrande Building

Overview

Evergrande Building is a contemporary commercial office development in Shenzhen, designed to provide high-quality workplace accommodation within one of China's fastest-growing business centres. Comprising 107,209 m² of office space, the project was developed to support evolving patterns of work through flexible, efficient and adaptable commercial environments. Dewan Architects + Engineers served as Lead Design Consultant, coordinating the design of a modern office building that balances workplace functionality with a distinctive architectural identity.

Project Vision

The vision for Evergrande Building was to create a commercial workplace that responds to the changing needs of modern businesses while contributing positively to Shenzhen's dynamic urban environment. The project sought to provide flexible office accommodation supported by contemporary architecture, efficient planning and generous access to natural light. The design aimed to establish a professional working environment that balances operational performance with occupant wellbeing, creating a building capable of adapting to a diverse range of commercial users.

Design Response

The building was planned around efficient office floorplates that maximise flexibility and support a variety of workplace configurations. Circulation, servicing and core planning were carefully coordinated to optimise usable office space while ensuring clear movement throughout the building. The architectural expression combines clean contemporary forms with extensive glazing, allowing natural daylight to penetrate deep into the workplace while reinforcing visual connections with the surrounding city. The façade establishes a strong corporate identity while responding to the scale and character of Shenzhen's commercial district. As Lead Design Consultant, Dewan Architects + Engineers coordinated the multidisciplinary design, integrating architectural, structural and building systems into a unified design solution that supports long-term operational performance.

• Creating flexible commercial office floorplates
