With an aim to transform the ‘urban ghetto’ and change the way people live for generations to come, Aedas has embarked on a 10-year journey to create the largest urban regeneration that Shenzhen has ever seen in Shangsha Village next to the Futian CBD. Led by Founder and Chairman Keith Griffiths, the design derives from a concept that focuses on blending the past and the future through the incorporation of technology, art, and nature. Phase 1 of the development, which was completed in 2022, consists of a twin office tower, a retail mall, serviced apartment towers and a boutique hotel, building a new city that preserves the area’s historical significance while creating a modern and sustainable urban environment.
The regeneration project redefines the way people live, work and play in Shangsha, serving as the benchmark for all future developments in Shenzhen. The design transforms these urban villages into quality future public spaces that will while respecting heritage to create a community for the future – C Future City.
