With each office covering a span of four to five flight hours, the offices in Amsterdam and Frankfurt cover the whole of Europe, with the Frankfurt office placing a special focus on the German-speaking countries. The new office in Dubai will cover the Middle-East, Northern African countries, the Caucasus and Central Asia. The offices in Shanghai and Hong Kong will continue to service mainland China and Southeast-Asia, while the new Melbourne office will focus on projects throughout Australia.
“Over the last 30 years we have carried out projects around the globe, but from now on, we will also be present on the ground across multiple time zones,” said Ben van Berkel, founder and principal architect of UNStudio.
The satellite offices have evolved in recent years from several large-scale projects that UNStudio is currently designing, building and supervising in the regions mentioned. In Frankfurt we are currently supervising the construction of FOUR in collaboration with HPP. FOUR is a large-scale mixed-use development we designed in the centre of Frankfurt. It includes four high-rise towers, the tallest of which reaches a height of 228 metres.
