OPPO Headquarters in Shenzhen Feels Properly Futuristic

This shiny new headquarters is wildly swoopy and organic in style, and a contrast from Shenzhen's other tall towers.

The OPPO headquarters in Shenzhen by Zaha Hadid Architects — a building whose interior circulation flows in curves that feel more like movement choreography than architectural planning, as if the hallways were designed by someone who genuinely doesn’t believe in right angles

For those of you that prefer your 21st century to actually feel like “the future”, this new project by Zaha Hadid Architects firmly scratches that itch.

Designed for Chinese company OPPO back in 2020, the fluid glass shaped headquarters is approaching completion, and will truly stand apart when finished.

The new Shenzhen headquarters will serve as a vertical campus instead of a typical tower.

Four sleek, interconnected high-rises rise nearly 200 meters, linked by sky bridges and a soaring 20-storey atrium that feels more like a sci-fi canyon than an office lobby.

OPPO gets flexible, column-free floor plates, panoramic views, and open circulation that encourages movement and chance encounters.

The structure blends workplace, public plaza, and city landmark into one fluid form. It feels less like a building and more like a glimpse at how future tech companies might live and work.
