Tencent is China’s most prominent social media platform, including the well-known messenger application, WeChat. The company recent vast business expansion has made themselves become one of the most valuable companies in Asia. Tencent has operations from video games, artificial intelligence, to movie entertainment. It is in a highly innovative industry with top talent who is young, dynamic, and smart. Our client’s vision lies in promoting its global reach to create a vibrant and collaborative working environment that fosters innovation, inspiration and sparks creativity.
Tencent’s twin Seafront Towers (rising 50 and 39 storeys) serve as the new home for the tech conglomerate’s 12,000 employees and stand as city landmarks. Working as an interior designer, B+H worked closely with the client and architect to adapt the concept of a vertical campus to reflect Tencent’s community-focused culture. Reminiscent of a university campus, this vertical campus offers amenities for work and fun. Tencent’s mostly millennial talent will find a pleasant workplace environment – part lifestyle hub and part social village – within an ergonomic and modern building. The towers are connected by sky bridges, where people can interact between two buildings to create synergies and generate fresh ideas. Each sky bridge has a unique theme.
