Abstract
Occupying a staggering 24 hectares, Cyberport constructed at an estimated cost of US$2 billion, nestles in a spectacular location at Telegraph Bay on Hong Kong Island's southern side. With a low density, campus-like environment and state-of-the-art Information Technology (IT) and telecommunications facilities, Cyberport is attracting a diverse range of local and international IT talents and becoming the breeding ground of a new generation of IT professionals. Itself an innovative project, Cyberport is a force to be reckoned with on the global IT stage and a breakthrough in architectural design and space planning.
From the moment of entering Cyberport, one will be impressed by its inspiring design and aesthetic touches. A team of international architects and planners including Arquitectonica (concept designer for offices, IT Street and hotel), Jerde Partnership International Inc. (concept designer for low-rise offices, The Arcade) and Wong Tung & Partners Ltd. (lead consultant/AP) have worked ceaselessly together to create a truly stunning environment - from the overall sweeping, organic look of the buildings themselves, right down to the most intricate details.
At Cyberport, the convenience of modern interactive technology blends seamlessly with a soft, green nurturing environment ot produce and ergonomic and creative workspace. This combination provides the essential physical and mental infrastructure needed for the formation of a strategic cluster of like-minded IT and IT related companies.
