Sky SOHO

Architect: Zaha Hadid | Address: 968 Jinzhong Road

Like all of Zaha Hadid’s (1950-2016) structures, Sky SOHO provides a strong visual impact. Set near the Hongqiao transport hub, the 12 buildings in the complex all feature her iconic curves and are connected by 16 overhead corridors, forming a net-shaped space.

The post-modern industrial park is not only home to the headquarters of more than 800 companies, but is also a popular filming location because of its unique appearance.

Sky SOHO is the only legacy the late British-Iraqi architect left in Shanghai. With the other two SOHO complexes in Beijing, “the queen of curves” brought her best to the country.

Small facts: Viewed from above, it looks like four high-speed trains, echoing with the Hongqiao Railway Station, which is about a 30-minute drive.
