Aedas has unveiled their Phase II designs of Hengqin Headquarters Complex in Zhuhai, China. The site is located on an island that sits near the Lotus Bridge linking Zhuhai to Macau, overlooking some of the largest casino resorts across the river. The form of the main buildings is said to have taken inspiration from a traditional Chinese flood dragon, symbolizing the convergence of talent from Zhuhai, Macau, Hong Kong and Shenzhen (Guangdong) at Hengqin.

The complex is set to be an integrated cultural tourism-oriented complex with two high-rise Grade-A office towers and a series of retail, banquet, entertainment and leisure venues. Inspired by the famous painting ?Nine Dragons? (dating from the southern Sung Dynasty), the design of the two skyscrapers alludes to the myth of two dragons and a pearl:

In ancient Chinese myths, the totem of two dragons chasing for a pearl symbolizes good fortune and happiness. Design of the two towers and the small banquet building in between took reference from this totem. The towers portray a sense of strength and power with a façade that shimmers under the sun; while the banquet building looks like an exquisite pearl ? Aedas.
