zaha (16  July  2009,  Hong  Kong)  SOHO  China  has  unveiled  the  innovative  model  with unconventional  features  of Chaoyangmen SOHO  III  in  the  showroom  of  the  project  on East  2nd Ring Road  in Beijing. The  design  is  the work  of world  famous  architect  Zaha Hadid.
 
Zaha Hadid  is a British architect described by Chairman of SOHO China, Pan Shiyi, as one “having tremendous creativity”. She worked with SOHO China in 2003 on the logistics port  “SOHO City”, which has  impressed  the entire architectural community  in China.  In 2004,  Zaha  was  awarded  the  Pritzker  Architecture  Prize,  dubbed  the  Nobel  Prize  in architecture, which put her among the top architects in the world. Chaoyangmen SOHO III is another testimony to her design excellence. The architectural cluster is made up of four structure  of  fluid  design  featuring  no  straight  lines  but  smooth  curvy  flow,  standing conspicuously apart from the plain design of other structures in its neighborhood. Quoting its designer, the project has an architectural design of the 21st Century  that offers a new perspective of Beijing to the world in the new century.What’s interesting on SOHO’s developments, is that they invite renowned architects to participate, under heavy budgets restrictions in order to delivery quality projects for the “stylish middle class”.  They also have a great corporative culture as you can see on their website.

This is Pan Shiyi Chaoyangmen SOHO design conference speech:

“Dear friends, distinguished guests:
 How are you!
Today we will be here to announce SOHO China – Chaoyang Gate SOHO design program, a year after all efforts to Zaha Hadid design team, mainly through the SOHO Chinese colleagues, the leadership of government departments in charge They repeated the results of the consultations; it is the designers, engineers, real estate developers, as well as government departments related to the leadership talent, wisdom together, and is fully manifested toward a perfect program; it is in the 21st century various industries created the field of scientific and technological achievements in building the most full use of the program; it is to break the shackles of tradition and dogma, bold innovation. This is a group of idealistic, ambitious people, committed to the promotion of social civilization and progress made by the effort. Today we will be thrown off the door SOHO Chaoyang design of the veil, this program demonstrates to the community. I believe that this program will certainly arouse our strong concern and even controversy. Whether it is positive praise or negative criticism, we are very much welcome. The process itself is a consultation, reflection process.  “Consultation is like a beacon that everything is subject to perfect and mature through consultations.” Building work itself is no exception, consultations will be closer to perfect it.
Yesterday I was a magazine and saw an article written by scholars, articles, Comment SOHO China has been declining in recent years creativity.  Indeed, troubled by the global financial crisis, we have a portion of their time and energy to deal with the financial crisis spread to our company’s impact on the.  But if we look back, money money to the spring and autumn, these are the thing of the past.  For any one organization, company, team, his real value lies in service and contribution to society.  Real estate developers in this organization’s contribution to society is that it created for the community the number of architectural works good.  We have done all the work starting point and the results can not be left for social services for the community to offer the best works of this fundamental.SOHO Chaoyang gate design may be able to answer the scholars SOHO China’s fear that he will see SOHO China is still on the road of innovation and persistently trek forward.
 SOHO China on behalf of all the members of the team to thank all levels of government for our great support and help! The design, after repeated consultations, amendments, finally got your approval!
Thank the design team, led by Zaha Hadid, is your time in the past year to carry out creative work around the clock to complete this for SOHO China is a landmark design.
I would also like to especially thank those who did not seem to design projects with this relationship for the unknown in other sectors to contribute to social progress and people, yes you provide advanced technology, only let this program has the possibility of implementation in the capital Beijing.  If you return to a decade ago, this program can not draw the construction drawings. This has also allowed us to further understand, we all like a big family, no one can do without.  Social progress is inseparable from the efforts of every individual.
Thank you!

Pan Shiyi
