HONG KONG SAR
- Media OutReach - 25
November 2020 – Lead8, the
international award-winning design firm, is excited to announce the firm’s
appointment as Lead Consultant on ’11 SKIES’ has been extended to include
Interior Design alongside its Masterplanning and Architecture scope.

11 SKIES, the brand new HK$20 billion
mixed-use destination at SKYCITY, will be Hong Kong’s largest hub for Retail,
Dining and Entertainment (RDE), and the first such development to combine
wealth management and wellness services. The latest designs and name were
unveiled this week by New World Development.

“Lead8’s multi-disciplinary undertaking as
Masterplanners, Architects and Interior Designers on 11 SKIES has been an
incredible achievement. This is a ground-breaking development which continues
to attract international interest. It is a testament to the commitment, creativity
and expertise of our team that we have been entrusted to design and deliver the
city’s most comprehensive and enhanced RDE destination to date,” said Claude Touikan, Co Founder & Executive
Director at Lead8.  

Operated by K11, 11 SKIES is a brand new landmark
in Hong Kong for locals and tourists covering a gross floor area of 3.8 million
sqft. The destination will feature 2.66 million sqft dedicated to dining and
retail outlets and 570,000 sqft for experiential entertainment facilities.
There will be over 800 shops including more than 120 dining concepts together
with entertainment never seen before in the region, all under one roof.

Notably, the destination has attracted the
first launch in Greater China for famous entertainment brand KidZania. Further
unique and imaginative entertainment facilities will also be on offer including
SkyTrack, the world’s largest indoor and outdoor karting track, a flying
theatre, digital media performances and immersive educational experiences. Once
complete, 11 SKIES will be the largest indoor entertainment centre in Hong
Kong.

As part of the mixed-use development, 11
SKIES also integrates three grade A office towers covering 570,000 sqft which
will be operated under K11 ATELIER. They will feature anchor tenancies from
five large-scale international institutions in financial services, insurance
and health management. As the first to combine wealth management and wellness
services within an RDE destination, 11 SKIES aims to provide unique
connectivity and redefine the traveller and consumer experience.

Strategically located next to the Hong
Kong International Airport, the Hong Kong Zhuhai-Macao Bridge, and the future
Tuen Mun-Chek Lap Kok Link, 11 SKIES will benefit from the high volume of
passengers travelling through Hong Kong International Airport, and a further 72
million people residing in the GBA. The destination will become a centerpiece
within the GBA’s ‘one-hour living circle’ and a gateway to the rest of the
world.

Opening in phases from 2022 to 2025, 11
SKIES is set to deliver a first-of-its-kind ecosystem offering brand new
experiences for retail, entertainment, dining, wellness and business in Hong
Kong and the Greater Bay region.
