Kaida Science Park

Dongguan, China
Huajian Group Dongguan
Project 2017 – current

A mixed-use development comprising office space, showrooms, cinema and retail, Kaida Science Park aims to attract start-up enterprises while showcasing innovations in technology and sustainable design.

The development comprises four office buildings featuring green roofs at various levels encompassed by a 1.8 hectare ‘mega roof’ floating high above the buildings to enable cross air flows, weather protection, rainwater harvesting and energy capture. The entire roof is comprised of solar panels that also act as shade devices to reduce thermal loads.

Cantilevered balconies articulate the office buildings while cross-block links create a permeable precinct and improved pedestrian experience.
