The Vanke Hongmei development in Shenyang occupies a series of industrial buildings formerly used for the production of MSG.

IIA‘s renovation repurposes these spaces to host a wide variety of programmes: concert venue, museum, gallery, exhibition space.

Caohejing Incubator

SHL have remodelled an existing office building for use as an incubator for hi-tech start-up companies.

A new facade of white, undulating, perforated, powder-coated aluminium envelopes the building. This covers some but not all of the building’s windows offering varying degrees of visibility and shade.

A new central atrium has been created allowing more daylight into the core of the building whilst serving as a central connecting space. Here a mural by shanghai-based artist,the Orange Blowfish, spans three floors up through the atrium along one flanking wall.

Casual seating, a suspended meeting room, and a number of planted outdoor terraces provide alternatives to more traditionally arranged office spaces.
