.
The green oculus of the Shenzhen Qian Hai scheme represents a new typology that was designed for the
project’s geographical, climatic and cultural context.
.
To capitalize on the subtropical climate, the oculus is green and porous, offering users a biophilic, naturally ventilated, yet sheltered, environment.
.
It brings nature back into the lives of city-dwellers by offering landscaped, comfortable, breezy, naturally lit common spaces.
.
These spaces significantly reduce the need for artificial lighting and air-conditioning, which reduces the scheme’s energy consumption considerably.
.
The biophilic design offers a healthy and relaxing environment that encourages people to be more aware of our climate crisis and inspires them to form a closer relationship with nature.
.
Design Inception: 2018

Gong Xi Fa Cai! Happy Lunar New Year from all of us at WOHA!
.
To mark the beginning of the Year of the Ox, our co-founding director Richard Hassell created this tessellation of beautiful Balinese cattle in an abstract rice field in this year’s lucky colours white, yellow and green.
.
The design is playing games with depth, patterns, space, figure and ground.
.
This year’s lucky numbers are 1 and 4 and any number containing 1 and 4 - this herd consists of 141 oxen. One For One also sounds auspicious in English - doubling up!
.
If you zoom in, you will see the oxen are surrounded by fellow creatures from the rice paddies: cattle egret, Javan finch, frogs and fish.
.
Can you spot them all?

This schematic design for a large mixed-use development in a prominent new site at the center of Shenzhen's Qian Hai Bay CBD envisions what future city centers could be.
.
Housing cultural spaces, expo and conference centers as well as hotels, residential units, retail and offices, the design takes a holistic approach by integrating the different programmes 3-dimensionally.
.
The cultural, expo and conference spaces are housed in crystal-like greenhouses at the foot of the green oasis. These spaces offer a natural, biophilic environment for a multitude of use cases and activities, regardless of seasons and weather conditions.

.
A lush, subtropical urban oasis rises up on the seafront,bringing nature back into the city that is dominated by concrete, glass and steel.

The scheme’s proximity to the airport would make it one of the first things travelers see when they are approaching the city by plane.
