Dear PA reader,

Zaha Hadid Architects unveils the Greater Bay Area Sports Center in Guangzhou, a fluid, fan-roofed megastructure that fuses sport, landscape, and local heritage along the Pearl River waterfront.

Büro Ole Scheeren has revealed JD Beacon, a 200-meter-tall headquarters and R&D hub for JD.com in Nanjing’s Jianye High-tech Zone, an interlocking vertical campus designed to reflect the company’s ambitions in AI and robotics, while anchoring one of China's fastest-growing innovation districts alongside tech giants like Alibaba and Xiaomi.

Ten groundbreaking projects, from a hill-shaped opera house in Shanghai to earth-covered stadiums and floating tech campuses, reveal how China’s most anticipated buildings are fusing cultural legacy, climate strategy, and radical form to reshape the nation's architectural identity.
