About Genesis Beijing

Genesis Beijing is a new kind of urban development devoted to community, culture, and mental well-

being. It is designed to be a new positive intervention in the future of cities.

Cities are becoming harsh places to live, driven more and more by wages, high living costs, and

separation from home. Genesis Beijing is designed to reset priorities, to help people explore their

identity beyond making a living, and to recover the social and family ties that make us whole.

Genesis Beijing is a social business project with large amounts of the profits re-directed into the cultural

and educational aspects of the site. Its intention is to invite the city in and serve the community

members, the neighborhood, and people across the city.

The workspace is designed to be less closed, less isolating, and less static than the traditional office

approach. It is designed to give people more space to think, more space to breathe, and more freedom

to discover, learn, and explore.

As part of the workplace experience, the building features an atrium, a canteen devoted to healthy

eating, club facilities for extra meeting space, and WIFI coverage across the entire site.

14

GARDENS

Designed by international landscape architecture firm ENEA, the gardens are core to the philosophy of

mental well-being. They have a narrative of their own, drawing together colors and forms, exploring ying

and yang, and creating a geometry with the river at the center. The Chinese pines, drawn from all over

China, are living sculptures throughout the site.

Within this setting is an outdoor amphitheatre hosting a cultural programme of music, theatre, and film

– a space to feed the mind and soul.

HOTEL

In September 2017, Genesis Beijing became the home of the first Bulgari Hotel in Beijing.

MUSEUM

In 2018, Genesis Beijing will be opening a new museum. It will be a place to discover as much about

oneself as art and artists. It is a space to tap into and reveal one’s own creativity.
