Centrally located in SIP's Hudong sub-district, SZOSC is hailed as a local landmark project for its integrated functions and unique design demonstrating both local and exotic characteristics.

GMP Design, a German company committed to delivering fast design and visualization solutions to a broad range of architectural and interior projects, led the design of the project with the participation of a number of design companies based in the United States, the UK, Japan and Singapore.

The designers borrowed ideas from the rockery setting in Suzhou's classical gardens to create an elegant and exquisite environment by integrating the buildings with the surrounding landscape, setting a good example in incorporating traditional and modern architectural conceptions.
