We changed

We designed a new headquarters building for Transsion that reflects its local roots and international outlook.

Transformation

+ Transformed the company’s identity (local + global) into architectural form through the use of the triangle and open, inviting structures.
+ Enhanced functionality by adding terraces, balconies, and retail spaces, blending workspaces with public engagement.
+ Evolved the standard office tower model into a more dynamic, interactive, and representative building.

Climate

+ Façade designed with deep vertical columns to shade the glass, helping to reduce heat load inside the building — an important response to hot climates like those in Southeast Asia and Africa.
+ The changing angles of the façade elements create a gradient effect, managing sunlight and heat exposure dynamically.
