The proposed Tencent Headquarters in Budapest embodies the company’s dedication to technological progress. Designed to accommodate 400 employees and provide an immersive experience for visitors, it includes a 364-seat esports arena, showcasing Tencent’s gaming-focused identity. Proposed Tencent Headquarters seamlessly combines architectural innovation with technological integration, reflecting the company’s values and fostering creativity, collaboration, and connectivity.



Concept

  The architectural design centers on three distinct long-span structural systems, each hosting crucial technological components within unique ceilings. Open lobby features a cantilevering pleated structure, facilitating connectivity with the media hall’s surface and creating a spacious gathering area.

Supported by two space frames,  Media hall integrates a jumbotron and essential systems like HVAC and motorized acoustic ceilings, achieving a floating effect while ensuring functionality.

Open offices utilize long-span steel floors with ceilings that mirror the structural logic. Fresh air circulation in the raised floor promotes a productive work environment.
