Programme Highlights
One Taikoo Place (OTP) is Swire Properties Limited new and prestigious office development project. It is redeveloping Somerset House in Taikoo Place on Quarry Bay, Hong Kong with a target occupation date in 2018. The key objective of One Taikoo Place is to develop a best in class, green and sustainable building from demolition, design, construction to operation. This will be a leader of high performance sustainable buildings in Hong Kong.

OTP embraces modern integrated design. This positions sustainability at the key elements of design and brings the design team together from the earliest project stage to jointly develop solutions. This fosters innovation and the application of new technologies and processes.

With the desire for this project, to push low carbon construction significantly beyond what had already been achieved across current Swire’s Building properties it was essential to approach design from a non-conventional starting point. From this early vision a design team was formed, with green and sustainability as the core values at the heart forming a design platform and integrating the multidisciplinary design team together with various departments from the developer. At this early stage, project goals were set and every member of team was empowered to develop towards these goals through design charrettes and regular workshops. This ensured that future challenges were identified and mitigated at early stages, enabling a new level of low carbon construction to be attained.
