Unveiling Atelier Maneuver’s competition entry: an innovative design for a Headquarters office in Quanzhou, ideally situated south of Sanyue Lake.

This pioneering project, inspired by the ripples of the lake, reinterprets and revitalizes traditional architectural elements of Fujian, notably the signature Da Cuo roof found in the Min Nan, Fujian region. The design strategy fosters a harmonious dialogue between the built environment and its natural surroundings, challenging and transcending traditional compound office buildings.

Integrated seamlessly, the glazed retail space to the west offers a spectacular viewport over Sanyue Lake, while also providing a sheltered colonnade, buffering visitors from the rainy weather typical of Southeast China.
