Subscriber Access

Since its founding in Hong Kong in 1985 and the establishment of its first mainland office in Beijing in 2002, the globally renowned architecture firm Aedas has spent the past 15 years leading the industry across various sectors, particularly in large-scale mixed-use developments and high-rise typologies. Among its most recognizable projects are the Midfield Concourse at Hong Kong International Airport and the recently completed Landmark Center in Shanghai.

According to the World Architecture 100 (WA100) 2017 ranking by UK-based Building Design, Aedas topped the charts in China and ranked ninth globally, boasting 788 registered architects across 13 global offices and generating annual revenues of $230 to $290 million. The firm’s meteoric rise is intimately tied to its site-specific design solutions and efficient execution.

ArchDaily recently spoke with Dr. Andy Wen, Global Design Principal at Aedas, to discuss the operational strategy and philosophy behind a leading global practice.
