Yau Shing Land
Studio X were appointed by Yau Shing Land to carry out major redesign and improvement works to the podium of the Yau Shing Commercial Centre in a prime location in the heart of MongKok. We have taken the project from a feasibility study, through to schematic design, detail design, tender documentation, and tender management, including project management and site supervision.
The podium facade boasts a 1000 sqft high-definition LED screen, which is the largest in MongKok and has been positioned to gain maximum attention from the visually congested and relatively narrow avenues.
The ground floor has been completely re-planned to maximise leasable area, improve circulatory efficiency and create more logical new entrances. The retail planning has been formulated to create as much openness to the walkways as possible and to provide a variety of retail units of a range of sizes to improve the tenant mix variety and increase flexibility in terms of being leasable and marketable.
The 4th-floor roof terrace has been cleared of redundant MEP and plant equipment and re-designated as an F&B space to encourage vertical circulation. The space has been designed as an al fresco F&B venue that sits above the podium and connects seamlessly to an indoor F&B unit, providing a unique indoor/outdoor space in the area.

The aim of the project is to improve the offer on the podium levels in order to improve the outlook for the upper commercial floors as well.
Our main objective is to improve the performance of our clients businesses by creating exciting, emotive spaces that have high utility and this project epitomises this approach.
" We appointed Studio X to transform one of our key properties. After 30 years of use, the podium and common areas of the building were in need of a major refresh, both aesthetically and from a commercial perspective.
Studio X’s experience of working with developers and tenants meant that they could propose design solutions that would be mutually beneficial to us as a landlord and to our future tenants, ensuring that the renovation had both a short-term gain of attracting new and higher quality tenants whilst ensuring longevity to adapt to changes in the retail landscape.
The project was designed and project managed smoothly by Studio X, completing a tight programme of concept to practical completion in around 15 months for both interiors and facade. Studio X understood the importance of maximising business needs whilst complimenting with a strong design agenda with innovative and functional solutions.
We have no hesitation in recommending Studio X and will look to use their services on future projects when the time arises. "
