Aedas-Designed SINOVAC High-Tech Achievements Transformation Project has been kicked-off on September 28, followed by a groundbreaking ceremony taken place in a national biotech and pharmaceutical innovative park – Changping Life Science Park.
The project is led by Aedas Global Design Principals Ken Wai, Dr. Andy Wen and Executive Director Zihuan Lin, who attended the ceremony with Global Principal William Wong. Global Design Principal Ken Wai attended the switch-on celebration with other guests, signifying the official start of the project.
Ken said, “I am honoured and delighted to attend the ceremony and I look forward to its completion.” The Park is one of the three most pioneered and developed biotech zones in Beijing, facilitating the biotech and pharmaceutical development which The Sinovac Longcheng project plays a key role in it.
With a convenient accessibility, the project is adjacent to the expressway and metro that offers a well-connected transportation system. The design is derived from the concept “tree of life” – the R&D and office towers in the south representing the “roots”, the manufacturing tower in the north representing the “crown”, the towers allocated on the “leaves” are connected by the corporate gallery and public space along the “stem”.
An elevated corridor links the splits zones, ensuring the circulation and logistic flow. The park is efficiently connected, signifying its corporate mission – to deliver health solutions by innovating pharmaceuticals through interconnected specialties. “Adopting a simplicity design approach, the project uses a neat architectural form to create a futuristic and grandeur corporate image.” said Global Design Principal Dr. Andy Wen.
An entrance plaza is located in the south, where a sunken plaza is placed in the north which consists of F&B facilities. “The project is designed to create a life-work environment in the park.” said Executive Director Zihuan Lin. Source by Aedas.
