OMA Wins Shenzhen Stock Exchange Competition

Shenzhen Stock Exchange Exterior
Shenzhen Stock Exchange Interior

Asymptote worked on this project in collaboration with OMA, designing the red slice through the building that houses the exchange.  I led the design from our side, which was pretty cool, as Rem referred to me as “dude” the whole time.

This is one of the first real projects that I designed that I thought was any good. It has some glaring problems, but it opened up a door for me to see how techniques I’d been using in experimental work could begin to apply to the real world.

Shenzhen Stock Exchange Interior Concept Render

We’ve teamed up with Rem Koolhaas / Office for Metropolitan Architecture for an international competition to design the Shenzhen Stock Exchange and I’m leading the design from our side.  This is the first sketch of how we are dealing with some challenging interior spaces created by the structure of the largest cantilever ever?
