About
Pingshan is the second district in Shenzhen set up under direct government management. Its development is part of a programme for new ways of managing the new districts.
The project mixes living, working, shopping and entertainment, following the principle of low, medium and high-rise buildings: heights increase from the centre of the site outwards. Lower buildings look over the central park and stay close to pedestrians, while the taller ones on the perimeter give the site its presence in the neighbourhood.
The central park is the heart of the project. A promenade on two levels serves shopping, leisure and rest, or simply walking through pleasant surroundings.
