DJI SKY CITY

The new headquarters for DJI, the world’s leader in civilian drones and creative camera technology is located in the Nanshan District in southwest Shenzhen. The two towers – 44 and 40 storeys respectively – are the ‘heart of innovation’ for the company and form a creative community in the sky.
The buildings’ functions include offices, research labs, test flight areas and public facilities. At 105 metres, the towers are linked by a 90-metre-long suspension sky-bridge, a lightweight element that creates an elegant connection between the two volumes. At the top of the floating volumes, sky gardens provide private outdoor spaces for staff.
At ground level, the lifted volumes draw the surrounding greenery into the base of the buildings via a sloping green podium garden that is open to everyone. The ground level is open and inviting – a gesture of DJI’s respect towards their urban surroundings and its contribution to the local community.
