Shenzhen Airport Training Base

Shenzhen / PRC

Aedas’ innovative scheme came first in the Shenzhen Airport Training Base Design Competition. The design builds an airport education portal that represents the spirit of symbiosis, marrying urban life and training through the provision of rich cultural, sports and public leisure spaces.

The project is adjacent to Shenzhen Bao’an International Airport, surrounded by airport facilities and has easy access to railway transportation. The plot is irregularly shaped, and has a height difference with the surrounding area due to the underpasses on the northwest side of the site.

The design accommodates various business functions including office, training, residential, and conferencing, while installing a standard football field with a 400-meter track.
