ARCHITECTURAL FOCUS
Beyond common functions such as offices, R & D, reception, and exhibition spaces, the entire complex integrates core industrial functions including automotive engineering R & D, interior and exterior automotive styling assessment, and new vehicle testing. Relatively independent facilities located outside the main buildings include an XPENG flagship store, a shared conference center, and a flying car takeoff and landing site, making the overall complex a truly largescale technological hub with a complete industrial ecosystem. The rooftop features green photovoltaics, sports facilities, an outdoor aircraft landing platform, and waterfront landscapes, forming a rich open space integrated with the city.
The XPENG headquarters campus features a massive building volume, faces strict surrounding environmental constraints, and incorporates complex functions with high technical difficulty. The architecture houses not only standard headquarters functions but also highly secure core industrial operations. It simultaneously integrates nearly 20,000 square meters of underground dining facilities, a comprehensive transportation system akin to an airport’ s, and display, sales, and launch functions catering to different audiences. From the inside out, it represents a completely new type of super-complex building cluster. A more detailed and in-depth interpretation of this project will follow in the future.
